FREE of worry

 

Psalm 37:18

King James Version

18 The Lord knoweth the days of the upright:

 and their inheritance shall be for ever.

Why does the Bible say "fret not"?

What are we supposed to be free of worry from?

Why shouldn't we worry about evildoers?

Here's where SPIRIT led me:

Psalm 37:1-2

King James Version

37 Fret not thyself because of evildoers, 

neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.

2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, 

and wither as the green herb.

Psalm 37:7

King James Version

7 Rest in the Lord, 

and wait patiently for him: 

fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, 

because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.

Psalm 37:8

King James Version

8 Cease from anger, 

and forsake wrath: 

fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.

Instead of fretting, what does JESUS say?

John 16:33

King James Version

33 These things I have spoken unto you, 

that in me ye might have peace. 

In the world ye shall have tribulation: 

but be of good cheer; 

I have overcome the world.

In addition, apostle Paul urges us to focus on CHRIST alone.

Colossians 3:1-2

King James Version

3 If ye then be risen with Christ, 

seek those things which are above, 

where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

2 Set your affection on things above, 

not on things on the earth.

It's also good to know these things:
