BEYOND OUR CIRCUMSTANCES 9-18-22 VIDEO TYLER PERRY NO ANXIETY 2
If our spirituality matters, it matters most when were under pressure. Pressure makes us feel alone. When we dwell on circumstances and all of the tiny details, we become introspective and circumstantial. We pray to God hoping to draw Him into our circumstance. Telling Him things He already knows. We dont have to live in our circumstances or our limitations because we live in Christ. When circumstances press us we go to the secret place. In our secret place, God separates us from our circumstances. Jesus often went alone to talk with the Father. When trials or circumstances have us down we use our authority in Jesus name.
Heb 13:5 Let your character or moral disposition be free from love of money [including greed, avarice, lust, and craving for earthly possessions] and be satisfied with your present [circumstances and with what you have]; for He [God] Himself has said, I will not in any way fail you nor give you up nor leave you without support. [I will] not, [I will] not, [I will] not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake nor let [you] down (relax My hold on you)! [Assuredly not!] AMP

Ps 27:5 For in the day of trouble He will hide me in His shelter; in the secret place of His tent will He hide me; He will set me high upon a rock.

Isa 41:10 Fear not [there is nothing to fear], for I am with you; do not look around you in terror and be dismayed, for I am your God.

ROM 8:28 Meanwhile we know that the love of God causes everything to mutually contribute to our advantage. His Master Plan is announced in our original identity.
29 He pre-designed and engineered us from the start to be jointly fashioned in the same mold and image of his Son according to the exact blueprint of his thought. We see the original and intended pattern of our lives preserved in his Son. He is the firstborn from the same womb that reveals our genesis. He confirms that we are the invention of God.
30 Jesus reveals that we pre-existed in God; he defined us. He rendered us innocent and also adorned us with splendor and esteem.
31 All these things point to one conclusion, God is for us! Who can prevail against us? MIRROR
