Why should I say “I can’t” when the Bible says I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength (Philippians 4:13)?
Why should I lack when God supplies all my needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19)?
Why should I fear when God has not given me a spirit of fear, but of power, love and sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7)?
Why should I be weak when the Lord is the strength of my life (Psalm 27:1; Daniel 11:32)?
Why should I feel like a failure when I am a conqueror in all things through Christ (Romans 8:37)?
Why should I allow Satan supremacy over my life when He that is in me is greater than he that is in the world (1 John 4:4)?
Why should I lack wisdom when God gives wisdom to me generously when I ask for it (1 Corinthians 1:30; James 1:5)?
Why should I accept defeat when the Bible says that God always leads me in triumph (2 Corinthians 2:14)?
Why should I be depressed when I have God’s loving kindness, compassion, and faithfulness to give me hope (Lamentations 3:21-23)?
Why should I worry when I can cast all my care on Christ who cares for me (1 Peter 5:7)?
Why should I be in bondage when the truth has set me free (John 8:32)?
Why should I feel condemned when there is no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:1)?
Why should I feel alone when Jesus is with me always, even to the end of the world (Matthew 28:20; Hebrews 13:5)?
Why should I be discontented when I can be content in all my circumstances (Philippians 4:11)?
Why should I feel worthless when Christ values me (1 Corinthians 4:5)?
Why should I have a persecution complex, knowing that nobody can be against me when God is for me (Romans 8:31)?
Why should I let the pressures of life bother me when Jesus has overcome the world and its tribulations (John 16:33)?

Why do you have to keep relying on a God instead of relying on your own God given inner strength of character?

Do you think God screwed you up that much that he would expect you to kiss his ass for every little thing you are to do?

Are you a make work project for God?
