Philippians 4:6-7 "Do Not Worry"

Philippians 4:6-7
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

What is the difference between petition and prayer?

EMPHASIS
Present- not demand
Peace- antonym of anxious without anxiety there is no peace.
Will guard- protect, defend because it is a war.
Christ- the child sent to save

PERSONALIZE IT
Do not be anxious about anything Lisa, but in everything by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving present your requests to God, Lisa. And the peace, Lisa, of God, which transcends all of your understanding will guard your heart, Lisa, and your mind, Lisa, in Christ Jesus.

APPLY IT
I know to pray about certain things, especially with things like anxiety, but sometimes I pray and still worry, I still allow myself to be consumed with anxiety.

PRAY IT
Lord, help me to bring all things to you in prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, presenting my request to you, instead of living in anxiety about the issue/situation. Help me to accept, trust you and allow your peace, which surpasses all understanding to guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus. Amen.
