This guided Christian meditation from Philippians 4 will help you release the anxiety and fear you feel about the future of our world.

Dire predictions about world events and the coming US election fill us with fear and confusion.



So much feels out of our control. And with so many voices speaking in, many of them spreading disinformation, how do we even know what to do or how to respond?



It’s easy to get immobilized with fear.



This meditation is not intended to address any political party or ideal. 

Instead, it is intended to help us turn back to God, release the fears that are gripping us, and remember that everything will be ok because God holds the future.



In this meditation, we will discuss our call to the impossible task of unity and Scriptures that remind us to pray for, not against, our leaders and potential leaders.



I pray this meditation gives you space to pause, remember, and pray for God’s gracious leading. May it help you release some of the anxiety you feel about the future of our world.



God is with us. He is in control, and therefore, we have nothing to fear.



You can follow along with a FREE printed guide for this meditation, and the entire Do Not Be Afraid series here.

The entire meditation text is as follows:

Philippians 4:4-7, NIV

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.



Additional Scriptures mentioned in this podcast are:

John 17:20-21, NLT (Part of Jesus’ final prayer to the Father on our behalf.) 

I am praying not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me through their message. I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one—as you are in me, Father, and I am in you. And may they be in us so that the world will believe you sent me.

1 Timothy 2:1-4, NET

First of all, then, I urge that requests, prayers, intercessions, and thanks be offered on behalf of all people,even for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life in all godliness and dignity. Such prayer for all is good and welcomed before God our Savior, since he wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.
