Prayer for Anxiety & Worry
Philippians 4:6-7, Isaiah 41:10 (NIV)
Heavenly Father, my heart is heavy with worry. My mind races with "what ifs" and fears I cannot control. I feel trapped in a loop of anxiety, and I don't know how to break free.
Lord, You have said, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." So I bring my anxious thoughts to You right now. I lay down the things I cannot change. I surrender the future that scares me.
Help me to breathe in Your peace and breathe out my fear. Remind me that You are with me – that You will never leave me nor forsake me. When I feel overwhelmed, be my refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.
I choose to focus on what is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and admirable. I choose to trust that You are working all things for my good. Give me the courage to take one small step at a time, knowing that You hold my hand.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
