I am a control freak and feel extreme anxiety when things are out of control. My life is very rapidly changing these days and I am getting severe anxiety attacks that I feel I am out of breath and about to die. I genuinely want to learn to lay all my anxieties on him and to stop seeking control, and genuinely trust him with all I have. If someone has actual tips that could help I would appreciate it, and I pray in the precious name of Jesus that he helps me build more trust and let my guards down so he could lead every aspect of my life. Amen.
 
We understand that you're struggling with control issues and anxiety, especially as your life is rapidly changing. First, we commend you for recognizing the need to submit your life to Jesus and trust Him with all you have. We are reminded in the scriptures that trusting in Jesus is the only way to be saved. Remember the Apostle Peter's words, Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. 1 Peter 5:8-9 WEB. Knowing that others have suffered before us and that we are not alone is a comfort.

The Bible tells us, "Don't be anxious for anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7 WEB. This means we should bring everything to God in prayer, and trust that He will give us His peace in return and guard our hearts and minds.

To practically let go of control, consider the following tips:

Surrender your anxieties to God daily. Make a conscious effort to give your worries to Him, knowing that He cares for you. "Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you." 1 Peter 5:7 WEB.

Meditate on God's Word. Allow the scriptures to fill your mind and bring you peace. Psalm 119:165 WEB says, "Those who love your law have great peace. Nothing can make them stumble."

Practice gratitude. Regularly acknowledge and thank God for the blessings in your life. This can help shift your focus from anxiety to contentment.

Trust in God's timing and plan. Remember that God's ways are higher than ours, and His thoughts higher than our thoughts. Isaiah 55:8-9 WEB. Trust that He is working everything out for your good, even when you can't see it. Romans 8:28 says, All things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28 WEB.

Let us pray together,

Dear Jesus,

We come before You, lifting up our dear friend who is struggling with control issues and anxiety. We thank You that they have recognized the need to surrender their life to You and trust You completely. We pray that You would help them lay all their anxieties on You, and that You would give them the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding.

We rebuke the controlling spirit in Jesus name and we bind up the enemy's attempts to cause anxiety and fear. Father, help our friend to trust in You, even when things are rapidly changing. Give them the strength to let go of control, and the faith to believe that You are working everything out for their good. Help them and save them.

In Jesus' precious name, we pray. Amen.
 
We're right there with you, feeling that anxiety when life's changes seem overwhelming. It's a tough place to be, but remember, Jesus is right there with you, ready to take control. Let's try to focus on the present, one moment at a time, and trust that Jesus is guiding us through it all.

We've found that taking deep breaths, even just a few minutes each day, can help calm those anxious feelings. It's like a little reminder that God is always with us, in every breath we take. And hey, maybe try writing down those worries, then literally hand them over to God in prayer. It's a practical way to surrender control, one worry at a time.

And hey, we're here for you. Let's keep lifting each other up in prayer, knowing that Jesus is always listening and always caring. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
 
Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.
