Stressed Out? Biblical Help That's NOT a Cliche

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ธ.ค. 2024
- I (Mike Winger) recently had the honor of teaching and leading communion in at my fellowship. As I prepared I thought that the Lord was leading me to teach on the topic of handling terrible stresses and heart breaking worries in a biblical way. This isn't just a self-help study for those who feel stressed by non-issues. This is biblical help for those who are worried to death or feeling totally overwhelmed by the anxieties and stresses they are facing in their lives. I pray that the truth of the Scripture comforts your heart as you put your hope in Christ and are reminded of how that hope impacts your troubled heart.

I had finished praying. I’ve been stressed and saddened since my husband has been sent to prison. I thank God for your Ministry. My husband and I are going through the tough times. This is the toughest I’ve ever had to go through. God bless you!
My prayers for you beloved sister!
What he do? 👀
@@peachfountain A Bad decision.
I'm hoping you're well. Praying for you sister
Pastor this was a great message: "You want God to change your trials, but God wants your trials to change you." This right here is what I needed to receive. God bless you Pastor!
Amen! Thank you for reiterating that point friend, I needed that.
I am currently struggling with anxiety and panic disorder around some health issues and situation changes my family has gone through. This sermon was a game-changer for me and so incredibly encouraging. So thankful for your ministry, Mike. God bless you and your ministry.
I think I commented about this on your last video. My grandma passed away a couple weeks ago and everyone is asking me if I’m okay, because I’m not grieving in the traditional sense. But you said it perfectly. It’s about the joy...joy of knowing where she is and that I will see her again.
It’s not a sin to grieve and be sad, just don’t let it take you away from the lord.
I didn’t say it was. I don’t think you fully read or understand what what I wrote. My joy won’t let me grieve because I know she’s in heaven and that I will see her again. If anything, my faith has been boosted by her passing.
Nate Rivera oops sorry read it a bit wrong...
It’s okay 😊
You have great faith and that’s admirable, God bless you
This message has truly blessed me tonight. I struggle so much with anxiety and worry .this was a great reminder to set my mind on eternity.
I really needed this today! Mike Winger, God is using your gentle humorous Biblically sound sermon to relive me of my stress and feeling like I’m sinning by feeling stressed, when in reality I’m feeling stressed because of my temporary situation, I’ll fix my eyes on Jesus my treasure prize and reward!!!
Great message Pastor Mike! I think that living in America especially, we have created a false sense of security and we think that as Christians we are not supposed to feel uncomfortable and stressed, when we are actually called for persecution and boldness in our faith. Alternatively, how beautiful an opportunity for our light to shine when are going through struggles, and allowing the world around us to see the peace, hope and un-moving foundation we have in rough waters. Praying for the ministry!
"I want God to change my troubles, but He wants my troubles to change me" Great insight! I will remember that bit of wisdom for sure. God Bless.
That is true about the pain during childbirth, I seemed to forget the pain because after the baby came it was pure joy, I swore i won't ever have a baby again, then i end up having four, I had natural birth with each child, no meds, just pure pain followed by pure joy.
Beautiful. God bless you
Stumbled upon your channel and struck by your last name! I’m a Winger too, by birth! I don’t meet many.
God bless you and your ministry.🙏🏼✝️
When I was a child, we memorized John 14:1-6 (KJV) at Sunday School, many many yrs ago This sermon was perfect , thank you Mike. I certainly appreciate it more now and understand, we all need to be reminded.
I really needed this today!!!!!
Pastor....While currently in the hospital,I was looking through your teachings( I'm a big Apologetics student,thus a big fan of you) and came across this 3 year old sermon. It spoke to me and brought my heart past my current problem and pointed me back to the Joy of Christ! Thanks and God bless.
When you watch this in the time of corona it has a whole new meaning.
🎉 I love how grounded you are in God's Word, Pastor Mike! A wonderful communion message and such a good explanation of what the bread and wine mean. Thank you!
Greetings from Alberta, Canada.
Thank you for this beautiful message.
There is no need to share what I am stressed with, just know that this is very encouraging and I am breathing easier today.
Thanks for your willingness to follow the Lord and encourage the broken with this message.
Thank you for including communion. Everybody else I listen to cuts off.
Really appreciated the Word from the Lord. I also loved the reverence you gave when presiding over Communion. I am glad you took it seriously!
This was such a wonderful video Mike! I thank you so much for your teachings! Reading the Bible is so much easier with a true biblical pastor. 💗
I love learning how to think biblically. Thank you God for your word and for you Mike Winger for this channel and ministry.
Beautiful. Thank you Brother Mike. Blessings to you and your family always.
Our Father is Awesome. 🙌🏻❤🙌🏻
Thank you so very much 😊🙏!
Oh this was so good!! I really needed to hear this!! Amen Mike Winger! I love hearing your sermons brother!! Gods blessings!!🙏
Thanks Mike, have to keep reminding myself of this fact. Look at the bigger picture.
So uplifting. Gave me some more momentum in getting ready to see Jesus.
I dont have the words to tell you how badly I needed to hear this message right here , right now , this very moment . At times { for all of us } ,, especially now that the end of my time here is drawing near { faster than I expected } I become overwhelmed with so many issues that I cannot change or alter and I almost lose sight of what you have just said . Thanks for the reminder that it is not this life I am running out of , rather it is just that much closer I am getting to that blessed assurance of eternity with Jesus Christ and joy unspeakable . Thank You again Pastor Mike ..
My heart goes out to you Jeff. I understand so much how overwhelming these uncontrollable trials of life really are. I say a little prayer for you Jeff, that God loves on you and those you love a little extra right now.
Simply AWESOME!!! Thank you Mike!!
As you always do, you give us a clear, enlightening and hopeful perspective to ponder. Your teachings are the best gift God has given me in a long time
I really needed this thank you pastor Mike
I needed to hear this today going through some trials of depression.but as always it's a blessing to hear you preach and teach.
I needed to hear this today! Thank you 🤗🙏
I think this was one of the most beautiful communions I have ever seen. It really touched my heart. I hope one day I can travel from Germany to the States to attend one of your masses. :-) You are a blessing. I learn so much from your videos. Thank you!
This was an on time WORD... Going through divorce and other family issues are magnified... This too shall pass... The mind of CHRIST is key... Thank you for the reminder... 😊😊😊
This makes me cry!!! 😪
Me too
I'm not even halfway through because I'm already crying. Just a few days ago, I experienced a miscarriage after months of my husband and I trying to get pregnant. We have two daughters and we were trying to go for our third and final child, praying for a boy that we could name after my husband's late grandfather. After months of trying, we finally got that positive test and we were so happy and i couldn't stop thank God over and over and over again. But it only lasted a few days, because i soon after miscarried, and i have been crying every day since.
I don't know if this is something that just happened, or if God is trying to teach me something but I've been praying that God would open my eyes to what ever it is. But I've also been overcome with anxiety thinking that God is going to stop us after only 2 children; thinking that He won't allow us to have the 3rd child that we desire.
When you read John 16:21, that's when i really broke down.
Really praying that God will turn my current sorrow to joy, because this is far more painful than i thought it could be.
I’m sorry for what your going through.. I can imagine how painful it is what your going through... but remember friend God is with you in the mist of your sorrow and lean on the word of God for in this life we will go through many trail but take heart for Jesus has overcome the world John 16:33. Never forget that sister in Christ he sees you and is with you. 💜 i hope that God heals your pain and your heart 💜
Thank you for this message, the Holy Spirit is working through you . Thank you for all you do. These messages over time are making a difference in my life. God bless you and your family .
Oh how much needed is this message! Thank you and God bless you!
I needed this so much. It was such a rough day.
Great message, thank you!
Thank you ❤
Thank you Pastor Mike. Thank you for your ministry, and for your commitment to sharing and teaching God's Word.
Thank you! This is so encouraging and helpful!
I watch your videos all the time and this was great encouragement for me. I am one of those people that avoid trouble because I don’t want the stress but I know it helps me lean on God more. We don’t want the trouble but we must go through it to give God the glory when His light is being shown through our lives.
“My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death”...yup. The joy is not “happy” or “ok”... it’s “sorrowful yet always rejoicing”. We rejoice in the promise of this life passing away and spending eternity with our Lord and Savior. Even in anguish and weeping, our hope is not in this life despite the heartache and gut wrenching pain we must endure here on earth.
I'm stressed out at work right now! :). (on break). I'll listen.
It is really not talking about that kind of stressed out. It is really talking bad situations of life. Like in things that happen that are not preventable.
Glory be to God!!! Too many supernaturally-put pearls to name; this is usable and renewable. To my hearing--definitely the Spirit's work. 💪
Thanks Mike. God answered my prayers through this simple message today. It also ministered to my wife in a different way. Our God is so wonderful that he can use TH-cam to bless us and speak to us. Thank you for your ministry. It is a constant blessing to me.
Watching a year later...you must have had a premonition...you mentioned taxes twice!😟 Also I read that Charles Spurgeon had bouts of severe depression...so the quote of his was even more meaningful. Wonderful lesson, Thank You, Mike♡
Amen beautiful
So good, down to the end. Thank you
WOW. This one's a big help for me. Thank you so much!!!!
I just found out some bad news. I told my friend I'm trying my hardest to trust Jesus, they responded " stop trying and just trust him"
Thank you for saying send me and yes to the prompting of the Holy Spirit. I have been enjoying your channel and appreciate your no nonsense manner and logical sequencing of Biblical truth. May God bless your ministry mightily! We need it!
My stress level was going high and I prayed for some comfort and peace and literally 30 mins after my prayer this video came to me.. thank you Mr. Mike Winger posting this, it comforted me and gave me a sense of peace..
Thank you Mike amazing message. Love you brother.
That was real and beautiful. Thank you 🙏🏻
Good as always.
Wonderful message! Thank you!
God bless you Pastor Mike! This was so timely and needed in my life. You are a blessing in your online ministry. 🙏🏻 ✝️ 🌷
Sooooooo good. 🙏🏼 What a blessing.
Thank you, this was very helpful
I struggle with anxiety attacks my heart races and i shake all over. I'm hoping i can get better soon
God bless you Pastor Mike. Thanks for the message. Such a great prospective.
I already knew that I needed to listen to this, especially when you mentioned the feeling of anxiety in your chest and pit of the stomach.
You preaching in a jungle?!
lol I like the background

Brad from Carolina
With that lighting I’m waiting for something to peep out of one of those palms, a monkey to call and a bird to suddenly flit through and perch on the drum kit.
@@ArmorofTruth Carolina? Would that be North Carolina? Is that where you currently live. I am out if Fayetteville.
This made me laugh!
This was great bro!
Short sermon for you. Had I known you were going to share Communion I might have prepared and joined in at home.
I needed this so desperately tonight, as I sit here crying my eyes out and trying to figure out how to deal (most of the time, completely alone) with older, sick parents who are angry/mean spirited and refuse to cooperate in any way. I feel like I'm losing my mind. Hearing God's Word is the only thing keeping me sane right now.
Now i have pure sorrow, Losing my grandson is something i do not think i will ever get over . I can not see anything temporary in the pain at all. The pain will be permanent.
So sorry for the terrible loss you have suffered. I just lost my mother, but she was 83. I tell myself that it hurts, but it's not like losing a child. I don't know if this will help but I read somewhere, someone was going through the pain of losing a loved one. She said she didn't try to lessen it or ask God to take the pain away. Instead she would offer it to God almost like a sacrifice. Because your pain is the sign that you loved. It wouldn't hurt if you hadn't loved him. So you can say, "God, I am not going to deny or diminish this pain. I will bear it (like Jesus bore the pain of the cross because of love) as a reminder that I did love my grandson, but I will offer it to you to share with me. Please take my sacrifice of allowing myself to feel this, but help me not to shut out You or other people, and feel only the pain. Help me eventually notice and appreciate that there are still beautiful things in the world, and people that need comforted like I do. Help me help them... eventually." Praying for you!
@@caroltaylor3414 what a fantastically edifying reply. I was blessed by this. Thank you.
Cry out to Jesus ! He will meet you ! Just the Right Time !!!
Anytime a preacher or pastor strongly suggests the congregation turn to the reference passage at the very beginning of his sermon, I know I'm in for a good message. When that individual on stage highly recommends the audience follows along, it's hard to take the text out of context.
Study pesher interpretation and midrash. Its fascinating to understand correctly the meaning and Jewish context it was written in. God bless Mr Winger
It really means let not your heart be worried.
Amen!
Mike winger is my best friend, he just doesnt know it yet!
Yes I can think of one problem that will follow me to eternity.... Loved ones will still have died without Christ. My mother just went to hell and I can never change it. I didn't speak to her on her death bed. Don't be me, speak to your family and friends. Nothing else matters.
💜
I'm only about 15 minutes in, but have to stop for the night. 1:30 am here. Thanks for this. I've been out of full time/permanent work for over 10 years now. Not months. Years. Now dealing with older/sick/uncooperative parents. I see no way out.
I dont know if this video is for me, as i am worried that i havent passed my drivers licence test 6 times now, and I really do need it. I pray that God will strengthen me during this time and draw me closer to Him.
You do an amazing job of teaching the word
Do you have any uploads about the passages on the Last Supper and which cup and bread Jesus was referring to as they had the Seder together? Also the OT references and significance? There’s so much to the Communion which most of us gentiles don’t comprehend, IMHO.
I am pretty stressed thou about the salvation of my friends ... and I don't know what is the medicine for that. Knowing that is not up to me doesn't help either.
What if I’m not changing, I’m trying but it’s so hard to be perfect, and the trial keeps getting worse and worse? How is that fair and good? I’m getting broken (which is good) but it feels like I’m going to be destroyed.
Hi pastor. I would like to ask.
I live in a muslim country so to want to marry my partner, i would have to convert to islam.
But my partner and I had come to know Jesus last year and we both love Jesus and had been baptized in his name.
We have never been with anyone else and we both live together and love eachother.
I dont want to live in sin, i wish to know if God would consider us as married as we have never been with anyone else, and we could not marry by the law of the land as it would mean converting out.
I hope you can talk about issues like this. Thanks.
Wow! That is tough! Praying for you!!!
Carol Taylor thanks Carol!!! 😁💗💗💗
With whom did you go to for salvation and baptism? Could you and your partner seek from that person to be married?
Mike please brother I need to talk to you. I have so many questions to ask you. I was raised as a Jehovahs Witness and now that I’m older I don’t believe in the religion anymore although I find some things to be legit it just doesn’t make sense in totality. I’d love to speak with you if possible because I feel so lost now.
Hello Mike Winger, I have a question for you based on your argument regarding Acts 2:38.
You stated that the word “for” means “because of” rather than “in
order to”. Do we repent “because of”
remission of sins? In Acts 2:38 repent and be baptized are linked with “and”.
It is sad the way you moped the floor with this guy. Just so you know this guy
is not a good representative of the Lord’s church. He clearly was not prepared
to give a defense of what the bible teaches. The answer to your cleverly
constructed question about John’s baptism in Matt 3:11, yes, the Jew during
Johns preaching was baptized “for” (meaning ”in order to”) repent. If a Jew
during that time hearing John preach and didn’t obey baptism then they were not
really repentant. See Matt 21:25-27. Please let me know what you think, I would
love to talk with you, thanks.
lol...Hope it helps. Sometimes pretending that things will go well helps.
Sometimes it's hard to have peace when you have special needs children. You don't know if God will heal them or not. Some trials are temporary and some or not. But eternally all trials are temporary.
Awwww.... our church has a special needs ministry... until then I din't realize the stress and constant pressure and worry that parents/caregivers deal with! I'm sure it doesn't feel temporary sometimes. Praying for you, precious sister!
What place is that? A fellowship? That's not a church? Is it like a supper club?
Are people with borderline personality disorder unable to be saved?
Did you ever do that flat earth video?
somehow mike reminds me of tim tebow
with darker hair
Exercise and deep breathing work just as well, no scripture needed.
@ Sabin
Can you show me where the Bible teaches this?
Not even close.
Stressed out , get a hobby, see a shrink, get or find actual help! A fairy tale helps nothing. Youll be a better person for getting through it yourself ,instead of being lied to and brainwashed for a myth!
@ Dee Schoe
Which statement in this video did you disagree with, and upon what basis? Give the time stamp.
@@Yesica1993 the first few words. "Please open your bibles". The fact that tour bronze age book has little to no value in todays world, and todays problems is the issue. Your book holds little to no verifiable facts to your god or anything he supposedly said or did. The morally ineptness of your god and how he treats huanity is a joke unto itself. You would think a book supposedly written by a being with absolute knowledge could have made it a little more clear, and actually gotten facts right, but thats what your paid liars are for(Apologetics). So I have a problem with your whole mindless philosophy that a fictional character can help anyone!
What made you so angry and why are you so convinced this is a fairytale? I found a lot of efidence that the bible is more historically proved than other historicall facts like the existence of cäsar.
@@bettiperle1251 another believer who thinks I'm angry, and has found tbings that aren't there! Maybe next time look up facts!
The righteous keep moving forward, and those with clean hands become stronger and stronger.

Thank You.
