  • 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)?
