"God’s Peace Cures Worry (Phil 4:6-7)", Thad Yessa | 11/30/25

We live in a world where stress is constant, pressure is unrelenting, and noise fills nearly every corner of our lives. For many, worry has become a daily companion, something we carry into our relationships, our work, our homes, and even our sleep. It’s no surprise that anxiety has become one of the most universal human experiences of our time. Long before modern culture named anxiety, Scripture spoke directly to the restless heart. God does not minimize our fears, ignore our burdens, or shame our struggles. Instead, He invites us to bring our worries to Him and promises a peace that does not depend on circumstances. In Philippians 4:6-7, Paul offers a path that is both honest and hopeful: we bring everything to God in prayer, and God responds by guarding our hearts with a peace only He can give.
