SCRIPTURE:

Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully. (1 Peter 5:7 AMPC)

DEVOTIONAL:

You must remember that God is positive and proactive, and He loves it when you are too. When you are in a battle, He doesn’t mind if you cast your cares on Him and release all the negative stuff that is bottled up in your heart. But remember, He already knows what’s bothering you; and once you have bared your soul to Him, you must listen to the Holy Spirit’s instructions. You will never get anywhere being negative and continuing to confess the problem; you must become focused on Him and hear the answer.

The Holy Spirit always has the answer and the answer is either right out of God’s Word or it completely lines up with God’s Word. The Holy Spirit’s answer will come from within your spirit and maintain peace inside. His answer is your confession from that moment on. Confessing the word He gives you will solve your problem and win your battle. If there is anything in your life that needs turning around, saying what God says about it will turn it around. 

PRAYER:

Dear Father, thank you that You care about my situation and the answer is in Your Word. I  receive Your peace in my heart to hear the Holy Spirit’s instructions. I will confess the answer You give me and my situation will turn around. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
