1 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)?
2 Why should I lack when I know that God shall
supply all my
needs according to His riches in
glory in Christ Jesus
(Philippians 4:19)?
3 Why should I fear when the Bible says God has
not given me a
spirit of fear, but of power, love
and a sound mind (2
Timothy 1:7)?
4 Why should I lack faith to fulfill my
calling, knowing that
God has allotted to me a measure of
faith (Romans 12:3)?
5 Why should I be weak when the Bible says that
the Lord is the
strength of my life and that I will
display strength and take
action because I know God (Psalm
27:1; Daniel 11:32)?
6 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)?
7 Why should I accept defeat when the Bible
says that God
always leads me in triumph (2
Corinthians 2:14)?
8 Why should I lack wisdom when Christ became
wisdom to me from
God and God gives wisdom to me
generously when I ask Him for
it (1 Corinthians 1:30; James 1:5)?
9 Why should I be depressed when I can recall
to mind God's
lovingkindness, compassion and
faithfulness, and have hope
(Lamentations 3:21-23)?
10Why should I worry and fret when I can cast
all my anxiety on
Christ who cares for me (1 Peter
5:7)?
11 Why should I ever be
in bondage knowing that there is liberty
where the Spirit of the Lord is (2
Corinthians 3:17)?
12 Why should I feel condemned when the Bible
says I am not
condemned because I am in Christ
(Romans 8:1)?
13 Why should I feel alone when Jesus said He
is with me always
and He will never leave me nor
forsake me (Matthew 28:20;
Hebrews 13:5)?
14 Why should I feel accursed or that I am the
victim of bad
luck when the Bible says that
Christ redeemed me from the
curse of the law that I might
receive His Spirit (Galatians
3:13, 14)?
15 Why should I be discontented when I, like
Paul, can learn to
be content in all my circumstances
(Philippians 4:11)?
16 Why should I feel worthless when Christ
became sin on my
behalf that I might become the
righteousness of God in Him (2
Corinthians 5:21)?
17 Why should I have a persecution complex
knowing that nobody
can be against me when God is for
me (Romans 8:31)?
18 Why should I be confused when God is the
author of peace and
He gives me knowledge through his
indwelling Spirit (1
Corinthians 14:33; 2:12)?
19 Why should I feel like a failure when I am a
conqueror in all
things through Christ (Romans
8:37)?
20Why should I let the pressures of life bother
me when I can
take courage knowing that Jesus has
overcome the world and
its tribulations (John 16:33)?
