It is easy to get stressed. The key is to quickly de-stress through the truth of God’s word. We can use it as our prayer, declaration, or affirmation of faith. Our strength comes only from the Lord. 

In Psalm 121:1-2 a question was asked and answered. It says, “I will lift up my eyes to the hills—from whence comes my help? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.”

Everyone who has put their faith and trust in Jesus has God’s resurrection power dwelling in them. The same power that God used to raise Jesus from the dead is in us! Ephesians 1:19 says “And what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power.”

In each seemingly impossible situation, we recognize afresh that we are powerless without the Lord and cry out to Him. Crying out is a humble acknowledgement of our dependence.
