5. Overview
▸ “The presence of anxiety is unavoidable, but the prison of anxiety is
optional. Don’t let anything in life leave you perpetually in angst.”
▸ Americans especially know about living in perpetual anxiety.
▹ According to one research program, anxiety-related issues are
the number one mental health problem among women and are
second only to alcohol and drug abuse among men.
▹ Stress-related ailments cost the nation $300 billion every year
in medical bills and lost productivity. And use of sedative drugs
like Xanax and Valium have skyrocketed in the last 15 years.
5

6. Overview
▸ Even students are feeling it.
▹ One psychologist reports that the average high school kid
today has the same level of anxiety as the average psychiatric
patient in the early 1950s.
▸ “The news about our anxiety is enough to make us anxious,” says
Lucado.
▸ But there’s a prescription for dealing with it.

7. Week One
Rejoice in the
Lord Always

8. Anxiety is a Meteor Shower of What-Ifs
▸ What if I don’t close the sale?
▸ What is we can’t afford braces for the kids?
▸ What if I can’t find another job?
▸ What if we made the wrong decision?
8
What are
some of the
What-Ifs you
have faced?

9. Read Phillipians 4:4
Paul’s Prescription
Prescription for
anxiety & worry
begins with this
command
Grammar Matters
Paul used a specific
verb tense so that we
would hear
“continually,
habitually, rejoice”
Timing Matters
Paul removed the
expiration date.
Rejoice in the Lord
ALWAYS.. and repeat
Again, I say, rejoice

14. In what God has accomplished
Rejoice that He is able to do
what you cannot do.
Fill your mind with thoughts of
God.
Don’t get lost in your troubles,
dare to believe good with
happen!
Next Time you Feature the Future: Rejoice
See Problems Differently
The world sees problems
and wrings their hands.
Christians should see
problems and bend their
knees.
Examine what sustains your
belief…trusting that He is in
control. 14

15. Psalms 105: 1-5
Give praise to the Lord, proclaim his name: make known
among then nations what he has done.
Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts.
Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the
Lord rejoice.
Look the Lord and his strength; seek his face always.

16. Table Questions

How is rejoicing a choice and what does rejoicing in the Lord look
like to you?
How would you describe your confidence in God’s control over your
life? What are some ways you have seen God’s sovereign hand at
work in your life?
How can spending time each day in God’s presence help you rejoice
in the Lord always?
