How much time do you spend “becoming informed” by listening to and watching the news? And, do you think that it has any influence on your faith and trust in God?

So do not worry or be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will have worries and anxieties of its own. Sufficient for each day is its own trouble. – Matthew 6:34 AMP

There is a campaign that has been unleashed on the earth through the media. It is a worry and fear campaign designed to steal, kill and destroy. The enemy has been using the media to spread fear and worry for years. They have declared, “Bad news sales!”. So they turn up the volume (so to speak) on the bad news.

It is time that the Body of Christ realize that we are commanded to “seek first the Kingdom of God” in order to be constantly full of faith. The answer to worry and fear is always FAITH IN GOD! Our lives are in Him. He is our source of peace, joy, hope, comfort, strength and all that we need. We need to spend less time listening to the world and more time listening to the WORD. The reason that so many Christians are filled with worry and fear (just like those without God) is that their time and attention  have been on all that is going on in the world. Let’s take a check up on what we are thinking…and bring our minds back over to Romans 12:1 – renewing it with the Word! Renewed minds are guarded with the peace that passes all understanding.
