God keeps a father secure when worry and doubt threaten his well-being

Worry, fear, and doubt are Satan’s favorite seeds to sow. In fact, they are the most effective tools he uses to create weakness in your faith walk because they paralyze you in your working for God’s kingdom. When you are faced with worry and doubt about your circumstances, take them to the Lord; He has promised never to leave you nor forsake you, and He will give you the confidence to handle whatever Satan puts in front of you. The Lord is your protector, and in Him you have everything you need to live securely and confidently. Remember, God will keep you in perfect peace when your mind is stayed on Him (Isaiah 26:3).
