- Anxiety is a product of what we seek. When we seek God’s kingdom, we will have peace. Why do we keep falling back into anxiety? Our culture is constantly convincing us that we need to seek our own kingdom. But we can’t blame the culture, there’s something in us that doesn't trust that God is good. Today, Alex will preach about how to not be anxious and Loke will share what makes her anxious.

What makes your anxious?
Exams and school, even after your done you school day it still sits on your mind and is a big mind blocker
Def when I am seeking things that have nothing to do with Gods kingdom. Philippians 4:6-7 also comes to mind. When I choose anxiety over prayer and thanksgiving, how can I expect to experience peace.
Health and finances...even though God always provides both. God is good, all the time!
My future at lot of times I get worried that I am not enough or doing enough so my future is going to be ruined but I just gotta trust God because HE will always make a way ❤
I get extremely anxious and worried about my future. I think of how I’m going to pay for college, I think of how I need to pass my road test, how people perceive and think of me if I don’t accomplish all these things. However, I am learning that I need to not only trust God but to fix my focus and attention on Him. I have to seek Him first!
“On the cross, Jesus reached into our tomorrow and pulled all the troubles that were rightfully ours and pulled them upon himself” Amen dude. That’s encouraging.
We are so quick to worry about things given by the world... These things are only "serious" because we make it serious. God is too significant for us (including me) to worry about silly things. I love this.
Truth!
beautifully put
Amen. Thank you Alex and Lokelani for your beautiful and convicting episode of how to be unanxious. I have been going through trying to get over sin and I've realized that I can't do it alone, and that I need to put all my trust in God. I need to kneel at the feet of Jesus Christ and obey him. To seek his righteousness and not worldy things. I feel alot better knowing I have nothing to fear and to be anxious about because everything will go according to his will. He paid it all on the cross for us so there's nothing for us to worry about other than to seek his righteousness and to obey him. Amen. God bless you both aswell as your family and church family aswell as all of you my brothers and sisters in Christ. 😇🙏🏻❤️
Hello new to your channel. I listened to you guys last week and I deactivated my Facebook page. I have taken pauses but never this. I love the simplicity and back to the basics of your channel. Facebook was addictive and definitely made me anxious and frustrated and feel like I’m missing out on something. Comparison and causing me to be consumed more with it then the Father. I’m going to try and stay off until September and then when and if I return. Try to post things that are helpful but I don’t want to go back to attaboy mentality so we will see what the Lord says. I have a lot of pic’s and memories I don’t want to loose especially for my child. I realized I can’t preach to my 12 yo about the traps of social media if I’m trapped myself. Thank you both for your teachings
Pickup truck podcast is such a vibe. Thanks so much Alex, I really felt the surpassing peace of Christ in this one 🖤🖤🖤
hey, im 15! i would say, what makes me anxious is: maintaining a certain status at school academically and social media. thankfully, i deleted social media because God wanted me to. ❤
So wise! The peer pressure now becomes a tidal wave in the adult workplace, when you have a young family (comparing your visuals, possessions, kid behavior, house size etc). Let God lead, heal and build you up. You've opened the door wide for blessing by doing this - at least until or unless God leads you to use such tools in healthy peaceful ways.
Amen I’ve just been praying to be in God’s presence because I don’t want to have anxious but having gratitude helps a lot🦋
“Pray for tomorrow instead of being anxious about it”! Good stuff Alex, really helpful prayer idea dude.
"Whatever you put first will fill your mind."
Amen
This came to me at the perfect time. I was just freaking out thinking I was about to have a panic attack. Then this was the next thing in my feed. The lord will always take care of your needs. God bless you all.
i felt like this episode was made for me honestly😢 Jesus always tells me what i don’t want to hear but what i need to hear. perfect timing ❤️
I have been feeling anxious around certain people and I feel really anxious when I tell people how I feel.
Well said Alex, chasing my own kingdom is what makes me anxious. Long story short I come a long way from a kid who used to make circular music, I was living for the pleasures of the world, and now I have managed to find my way back to Jesus, although I still get out of my ways and go back to the old whenever I seek my own Kingdom. I'm so into making music that I have been having thoughts of leaving it because it distracts me from seeking first the kingdom of God but I have realized that it's not even about just the music, it's about me wanting to seek my own kingdom with the music. Thank you so much for preaching about this, I'm currently fighting with this as of right now and I just thought let me grab my bible and listen to Amen Podcast, I feel a lot calmer and it's all because I have chosen to seek God right now, who knows? I would probably have done something that I would regret and dwell on for the next few hours. Be Blessed Mr Wilson.
Thanks for sharing God’s Word🙌🏻
My peers and school make me anxious. I'm insecure about my acne, so always anxious about the thoughts of other people, even my own family members. For school, grades and what my future could look like are what's always going on in my mind. But, knowing that I can take one day at a time because God is ultimately the one in control (not me), and also knowing that He is the only one that truly matters, it sets me free and leaves me with peace. It's amazing to know that the creator of life wants to have a relationship with me, and the invitation to a life with Him is right in front of me, just as Mary saw that Jesus was right there in their home. Amen.
hi☀️! i’d just like to say, i have dealt with the same things. my acne used to be bad and i even had to go on medication for it. and people in my family has also pressurised me to become a doctor. but what i can say to you is…focus on God. He sees you as beautiful with or without your acne. acne is a normal teenage experience and you are made in His image so YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL! second…you are the only one living your life and you should get to decide what you want to become and what makes you happy. ask God to guide you. you’re in my prayers 🤍
@@Christian-. thank u for your encouraging words! It helps more than you may think 🥺
Sir I'm from India.... preachings are very good and understandable
This came at the right time! Thank you so much Mr and Mrs Wilson, for accepting God’s call. God bless you and grant you more grace
You guys have incredible faith to trust in God for your life, your kids’ lives and your income! You guys are an inspiration to all who are struggling with money and the culture of our world today. Thank you!
Thanks!
Thank you for the encouragement! Love you guys. God bless.
I needed this. Thank you! - God has blessed me with an opportunity for a new job and I have been feeling so anxious. I just need to trust God and his plan for me. I’m young and need to take this leap with my career and trust that the lord will guide me to my future. I need to trust God’s plan!
Everything. Everything makes me anxious. I'm worried I'll never make enough money. I look at my son and I see the failed 7 years of trying with his mom that I'm no longer with. I'm anxious about my christian walk because I'm not perfect. I'm anxious about everything. This helped me a lot because I haven't put God first. I'll definitely take this to heart❤
thanks for being so real and honest. we need content like this that isnt perfect its real life!! such a good reminder to not be so busy and concerned what people think!!
Love how God always uses you guys to preach to me and it’s beautiful truly. I thank the Holy Spirit that He continúes to use you. Love you guys
Amen! This is so goooood! 🔥My anxiety has come from the need to be flawless at university. I'm 27 years old in 1st year and when the year began I just wanted to dominate and be the best student and get the highest marks. But that has created some really high unrealistic expectations of myself and I feel drained to tell the truth. I'm glad it's the end of my first semester and I get the opportunity to seek God during recess and approach this whole education thing from a perspective of building His kingdom and not my own. Amen!
After listening to this and lifting my anxiousness due to my Divorce, I cried and let go of holding my feelings back for the week. My therapist can't do what you two have done for me. I thank you both for preaching the good word.
Amen instead of worrying about tomorrow, pray about tomorrow. Praise Jesus Christ
I’ve been anxious about money lately. This month is full of expenses since it’s a really busy month. I’m not working at the moment so I rely on my parents and I was anxious because I didn’t want to put such a burden on them and I cried but the Lord really used my Mom to comfort me. The Lord always provides but I wasn’t trusting as I should have
Amen!!! Thank you both and thank God I have the ability to hear yall podcast! Keep on being obedient and teaching us all! Blessings to all on this wonderful day! 🙏🏾 ♥ 💪🏾 Jesus is Lord!!
powerful message, really found this so helpful ive been dealing with anxiety every night until I started praying about it I let go completely , I also realised it stems from not trust God fully with our situations and where we're at in the moment, we have to let go and trust God and put him first, even if its scary trust God fully. I like telling my friend " Just let go and fall Jesus will catch you" so I thank you guys for this message
Thank you for sharing His Word. This message was for me❤
Thank you for sharing, this is an amazing sermon! God bless you both
Amen. His purpose, not ours. How people perceive me or IF I will succeed at work continuously makes me anxious.
Amen 🙏🏽
such an amazing message. thank you!! something that makes me anxious is when i get overwhelmed with certain things and stressing out about the littlest things.

This Word was so good!!🤍🙏🏻 Many affirmations for Philippians 4:6-7 today. Amazing how God works🥲
Amen. Glory to God. Thank you for sharing.
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Thank you guys! You both have amazing hearts even with the stuff you guys fall short in like being snappy with your kids, some people do not even care about that so you guys caring about what goes on in your hearts and minds is so needed and refreshing.
I've been reading a couple books this past month. "The Insanity of God," and "Revelution in World Missions." and it talks about how much God loves his people. The books go over Matthew 28:16-20 how important it is to reach out to the lost souls in this broken world. That we have to be careful on how we satisfy the needs of our flesh because if we fill the desires with food, clothes and money. We forget the main spirit behind our healing. Jesus CHrist. and it makes me reconsider why I do certain things. DO I fill my time to distract myself from pain? Do I do these things to make me feel better? When I truly need to dive deeper and tap into Jesus Christ because it is through the power of the cross that we are truly satisfied. And that is the true message of the Gospel. That no matter what we do, we can never ease our anxiousnous however through Christ we shall be satisfied in all we do because all we do is for the glory of Jesus Christ.
I love your podcasts, their always amazing to listen and very encouraging and always seems to hit my heart everytime i listen. I pray a blessing over your family while in missions on spreading the Gospel to the unreached nations. God bless you both!
Matthew 28:16-20
My ability to perform what God blesses me for
Amen!!!! Good message thank you for that God want us to be better and do better
“Earthly riches does not equate to righteousness.”
Man, that was so good.
This was one of your most moving messages for me thank you so much for creating this content I love you guys God bless you and your family‼️
Proverbs 20:28
Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy.
I'm 28 and I recently started driving independently and I can get anxious before and as I get in the car, espeically if I know I have to stop and get gas (the gas station near my house is just awkward) Whenever I am about to drive and when I am driving I am constantly praying, giving thanks, and if I make a mistake, I just remind myself that it's in the past and that welp I'm still alive and I didn't crash into another car, anyone, or anything. I also have an acronym that I say to myself - LSSS (Lane, Speed, Signal, Stop).
God is always with you! Thank you for sharing this! Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your own story to help others. Thank you. The Lord loves you more than you know and He is always with you so there is no need to fear anything. I pray that the Lord would bless you in your driving and everything else that goes on in life, so that His will may be done and not anyone else’s. I pray that the Lord your God Almighty would do this all, in Jesus’ name, Amen Almighty Father God Amen!!❤😊❤😊❤

amen
Amen, this message was for me and came right on time, God is so good🙌🏾❤️
AMEN!
God gives me a purpose
we’re anxious because we’re not seeking first God’s Kingdom. what is means to seek God's kingdom is to sit at Jesus' feet. so timely & so good 🙌
I would love to hear a podcast from y’all on marriage and/or being a Godly spouse.
Jesus is coming back soon and we need to share the gospel before its too late. Jesus loves you so much and is with you forever, no matter what
I would have to say that my job/career choice is what makes me anxious. Not to mention the pressure I feel from my immediate family to do something with myself.
May 💛God 💖Be💖 With 💚Everyone 💙Always 💜Much 💚Love❤️ Blessings 💖Always ☺️ 🎇 🌈 🌐 💯 ✌️💜💖💛❤️❤️💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💖💯
Amen 100❤
For me it is my parents I’m scared of persecution.!!
I’m really struggling with anxiousness and hopelessness.
Praying for ya right now Kitty!
@@Bodypiercingsavedmylife I am just seeing this now - thank you so much!
true blessing to be able to listen to the Lord speak through you guys, about this topic. what makes me anxious is also when i think about myself, like, what i need to do or need to get, my works! and this is draining because that will come from me will satisfy me.
Thank you for this video something that gives me anxiety is worrying about basketbal skill and performance and now I know I need to put god first and not my own plans.
something that would make me anxious at times is when i think i’m putting things before God, for example before I plan to play the game with friends I feel this anxious feeling that I could be putting it before God but I always tend to make sure I read my bible and spend my quality time with God before I do get to enjoy my time with friends and I felt like i’ve gotten this sign from my pastor to do bible studies on there but from time to time I still get anxious about it. I feel like it could be the enemy trying to abuse my anxiety so I can struggle more.
and after doing these bible studies i’ve seen a new side of some of my friends I haven’t never seen before and I’ve got to see how they trust in God in there life.
Amen , thank you God bless you ❤️
Amen Nephew! What a powerful message 🙏🏽
Amen. I love this before watching it to the end.😀 ❤️
Proverbs 23:24 says:
The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begetteth a wise child shall have joy of him.
Hope this helps any parents out there. I love you guys, and God loves you infinitely more. He loves you, more than you will ever ever get to know. I pray this in Jesus’ name, Amen Almighty Lord Jesus Christ Father God, Amen!!❤😊
Matthew 6:21
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
This may sound crazy but just existing brings me anxiety…. I’m always afraid something bad is going to happen… which this bad thing will lead to my death,.. I’m afraid of dying and I walk Around in a ball of anxiety bc of it… I’m currently having health issues and can’t stop worrying/stressing/being anxious about it… some say childhood trauma is part of it but I also know I have issues trusting God -and I hate that bc He is trustworthy and I just can’t understand why I can’t trust him fully
No, you’re not crazy…or alone.
I hope you feel peace and healing from these anxieties. I believe they’re lies from the enemy to keep you from existing fully, and to be fully happy.
I came across a passage yesterday in my Bible Study called “Abiding in the Prince of Peace (How to Win Your Mental War)”
John 15:1-15. In it, Verse 10 says He commands us to remain in His love, and we will do so by obeying His commands. Verse 11 says “I have told you these things so that you can have the same joy I have. I want your joy to be the fullest joy”
One of Jesus’ commands is to not worry. If we don’t follow that, we won’t remain in His love cuz we’re constantly holding the burden of our anxiety. It’s impossible to feel His love and “peace beyond all understanding”then. Something I realized yesterday when I was feeling anxious and trying to practice everyday now. :)
I pray for you to feel better, to find freedom from the sick lie that’s been taking away from you, in Jesus’ name. Amen
you guys are just the best to binge watch with my bible, notebook, and pen lol
Proverbs 14:11
The house of the wicked shall be overthrown: but the tabernacle of the upright shall flourish.
Loved the last part, just got back on the gram after 2 years. 'The pull of the culture online'. All we can do not share in vanity, yes we have to be careful for sure! well put
God bless you guys ❤
I love the podcast! but here is a suggestion you guys should post notes in the comments it will help everyone get the full picture of the message. God bless🙏
Please pray over Sydney and I
Luke 11:34
The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.
Amen! ❤
❤ good word
Amen 🙏 ❤
been awhile since ive watched you guys 😊

Haven’t listened yet, but that thumbnail 🔥🔥
How do we keep a balance between doing our part (works) and resting in Gods provision for us?

Jesus is God
do you guys listen to maverick city?
John 12:24
Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.
Do you guys fall under a specific branch of Christianity or just identify as a Christian?

crazy that she said that at the end about the mary and martha book because i purchased that book 2 weeks ago and have been reading it for a while and everything you guys talked about goes with it so well. Thank you guys for sharing this amazing podcast 🤍🫶🏼
Thanks!
I missed this episode but found it on the last day of my fast. I was asking God for breakthrough, and breakthrough I received. Keeping God on the throne is always the answer. I feel awakened to the ways I have been letting my cares torment me. I feel so relieved that I don’t have to be anxious about anything for which the world is anxious… I can rest at the feet of my beloved Jesus. Thank you for this message!
Thanks!
