    Oct 15th: Do This When You're Tempted to Worry | Travis & Rachel Bible Study Replay

    What do you do when you've prayed about something, but the worry keeps coming back? In this Bible study, Travis and Rachel Peters explain how to cast your cares on God, take anxious thoughts captive, and walk in the peace Jesus has already given you. 📖 Get Strong in the Word with free daily Bible teaching: https://increaseministries.com/devos 🎓 Come take some free classes inside Increase Bible Academy: https://IncreaseAcademy.com ❤️ Give or become a monthly supporter: https://increaseministries.com/give 🌐 Explore more teachings and resources: https://increaseministries.com A bill is coming due. Something is happening in your family. You're facing a situation you don't know how to fix. Before you realize it, your mind is running through every possible thing that could go wrong. How do you interrupt that cycle and respond in faith? Philippians 4:6–7 gives us instructions: don't worry about anything, pray about everything, tell God what you need, and thank Him for what He has done. Then His peace will guard your heart and mind. But what does that look like when the same concern comes back five minutes later? In this teaching, we talk about how to put those instructions into action, recognize thoughts that pull you away from trusting God, and develop the habit of bringing your attention back to His Word. You'll learn: • How worry tries to undermine your trust in your heavenly Father. • How to apply Philippians 4:6–7 when you feel overwhelmed. • What it means to cast your cares on God and leave them with Him. • How to take thoughts captive instead of rehearsing everything that could go wrong. • Why renewing your mind helps you respond in faith. • The connection between humility, trusting God, and releasing your cares. • Why facing another challenge doesn't mean you've failed. • How to care about people without carrying worry about them. We also lead you through a spoken prayer to release your cares to the Father and respond to worry with faith. Scriptures discussed include: Philippians 4:4–7 Matthew 6:25–34 John 14:27 2 Corinthians 10:5 Romans 12:2 1 Peter 5:5–8 James 4:7 This teaching is part of our Worry Free Challenge, where we're learning to apply God's Word to everyday situations and build the habit of trusting Him. If we haven't met yet, I'm Travis Lee Peters. Along with my wife, Rachel, I help believers understand the Bible, build strong faith, and apply what they're learning to the situations they're actually facing.

You do not have to live confused, disconnected, worried, or unsure of what to do. You'll also learn why it matters to study the Word topically when you're facing a specific situation. If you're dealing with financial pressure, health issues, worry, fear, or confusion, you need to build your faith with Scriptures that speak directly to what you're facing.

    RELEASE THE WEIGHT OF IT | How to Give Your Worries to God

    What if you simply stopped carrying the weight? The Bible doesn't tell you to manage your worries, carry them better, or learn how to live under the pressure. It tells you to CAST THEM ON GOD. In Day 3 of Worry Free Living, we're looking at Psalm 55:22 and 1 Peter 5:7 and learning what it actually means to release the weight of your worries, cares, anxieties, and burdens onto God. 🎓 Want to go deeper in the Word? Join Increase Bible Academy: http://increaseacademy.com/ Increase Bible Academy is THE ONLINE BIBLE SCHOOL FOR EVERYDAY BELIEVERS. Learn how to understand the Bible for yourself and actually put God's Word to work in your everyday life. Build strong faith, pray prayers that get answered, understand your authority and covenant, hear from God, receive what He has promised, and learn to live from faith instead of fear. ❤️ Give and Support The Work: https://increaseministries.com/give IN THIS TEACHING, YOU'LL DISCOVER: • What it actually means to cast your burden on the Lord • How to release the weight of worry • What God's promise to "sustain you" means • Why holding onto your worries can become self-dependence • How worry affects the decisions you make • The difference between playing to win and playing not to lose • How to recognize worry thoughts before they take root • A practical way to take your thoughts captive • How to replace fearful thoughts with God's Word Psalm 55:22 says: "Cast your burden on the LORD, And He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved." God never intended for you to carry everything yourself. When you release the weight of your burdens onto Him, you can trust Him to sustain you, provide for you, guide you, and show you what to do next. Think about this: Where would you be today if you hadn't worried about anything for the last 365 days? At the very least, you'd probably still be where you are right now, except you would have enjoyed the last year a whole lot more. And what decisions might you have made differently if they had come from faith instead of fear? Worry makes you play defense. Faith allows you to move forward. Worry thoughts may come, but you don't have to receive them. Take the thought captive. Stop the negative mental movie. Replace it with God's Word. Release the weight of it. Let God sustain you. 📖 SCRIPTURES IN THIS TEACHING: Psalm 55:22 1 Peter 5:6-7 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 Philippians 4:13 Mark 11:23-24 2 Timothy 1:7 1 John 4:4 📖 Get Free Daily Bible Teaching: https://increaseministries.com/start-here 📚 Books & Resources: https://increaseministries.com/books 🌐 Increase Ministries: https://increaseministries.com #WorryFreeLiving #StopWorrying #CastYourCares #FaithOverFear #TrustGod #BibleTeaching #ChristianLiving #IncreaseBibleAcademy

    DON'T TOUCH IT IN YOUR MIND | How to Stop Worry Before It Takes Over

    What do you do when a worried thought suddenly hits your mind? "What are you going to do?" "How are you going to pay for this?" "What if this gets worse?" That's where the battle starts. In Day 2 of Worry Free Living, Travis shares what happened when a major leak appeared in his ceiling on the very first day of his 45-Day Worry Fast, and how he handled a real problem without allowing worry to take over his thought life. 🎓 Want to go deeper in the Word?

Things happen. Bills show up. Things break. Bad reports come. Unexpected problems arise. The question is: What are you going to do with the thoughts that come with them? You don't have to entertain every thought that enters your mind. When worry starts trying to play out the worst-case scenario, STOP THE MENTAL MOVIE. Take the thought captive. Refuse to worry.
