"Casting all your care upon him, for he cares for you." (1 Peter 5:7)
Our opening scripture is remarkable. The Lord Himself is inviting us to cast all our cares on Him. He says, "Give me all your cares." You don't have to worry over anything in life, roll all your cares over to Him. Understand that you and God can not be caring about the same things, at the same time. If you are going to be fretful and anxious, He can not intervene, because your worries will stop His power from flowing your way.
Refuse to be anxious of nothing; Confess the Word and say, "I refuse to be anxious over anything. However, in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, make thy request known unto God, therefore His peace that surpasses all understanding garrisons my heart and mind in Christ Jesus."
Perhaps you are a parent, you have your son or daughter away somewhere and you think he or she might be in danger. Instead of crying out in fear, "Oh God! I don't know whats happening..."; say, "Father, I thank yo because I know that you care. You are in charge, therefore my child is protected."
Confess that God cares; Be conscious that He cares. Jesus Christ was so conscious of the Father; He spoke of Himself all the time. I have that consciousness. He says, "I will not leave you fatherless" (John 14:18) and He sent the Holy Spirit to take care of us, because He cares. We are not fatherless. There is someone who cares for you, that person is your heavenly Father, He cares about every details of your life. He cares about everything that pertains to you. He perfects all that concerns you and you are important to Him, He knows your name.
No matter the situation, get into your closet, shut the world out, shut the pain and tribulation out and lift up your hands And say, "I have a Father, the Almighty; He's King of kings and Lord of Lords, and He cares for me." You are not alone, greater is He that is in you than all the troubles in the world.
