5 Practical Ways to Cast Your Cares on Jesus
Do you struggle with worry, stress or fear? You can go free and never worry another day in your life!
What am I going to do? Have you ever had that thought? A seeming crisis looms in your finances or your job, you received a bad report about your health, or an important relationship seems to be crumbling right before your eyes. The pressure mounts, and your problem-solving mode kicks in. All day and night, you contemplate the solution, wondering if there even is one. Concern moves to worry, and worry morphs into all-out fear. Before you know it, panic sets in, and you’re in total torment.
Believer in the Lord, this is not how you are meant to live! God’s plan has always been that you live in perfect peace and ultimately find deliverance from trials. That’s why God is vehemently against worry. It does not produce anything but stress, strain and death. Jesus preached against it; Paul preached against it. The whole Bible is against worry because Satan designed it.
Consider these scriptures: “Do not be anxious about anything” (Philippians 4:6, NIV), “Don’t let your hearts be troubled” (John 14:1), “Don’t worry” (Matthew 6:31). And that’s just the beginning. Yet many of us still act as if it’s an option, as if we’re free to worry if we want to. But we’re not! Worrying is a sin. It’s one of those things the Word of God directly commands us to not do.
That’s why, at one point, Kenneth E. Hagin promised God he would never worry again, and he set out to keep his promise. Dr Abraham has made the same commitment. He refuses to let the sun go down on a single care. But one thing is sure—it is a challenge. Sarah Abraham says, “Casting your cares on God is an act of faith. It may not be easy at first, but it is necessary if you want to live in victory.”
Today can be the last day you ever have a care in this world. Does that sound appealing to you? Make a decision right now that you will do whatever it takes to cast your cares—every care—on the Lord and into His hands. Use these five practical ways to cast your cares on Jesus and make this the first day that you never carry a worry again.
1. Cast Your Cares by Stopping Worried Thoughts Before They Start
“We take captive every thought.” –2 Corinthians 10:5 (NIV)
The mind is where the battle between worry (fear) and peace (faith) takes place. Whatever you allow to captivate your mind will rule your life. So, if you want the Word of God to reign over your thoughts, you have to resist the devil when he tries to plant anything contrary to it in your mind.
That’s why, in order to cast your cares, you have to stop worried thoughts before they even start.
You know how it begins. You get a phone call, an email or something in the mail—and it’s not good news. Immediately, your mind begins racing. This is where the road divides, and you make a choice: Are you going to begin to worry, or will you stand firm in your faith and tell the devil to split? The only way to do the latter is to take that thought captive—immediately! That means to stop it in its tracks, and keep it from being free to roam in your mind.
When you first begin this practice, it may seem like you’re taking worried thoughts captive every two minutes. Gloria Copeland describes her experience when she first learned how to cast her cares on the Lord:
“An anxious thought would pop into my mind, and I would rebuke it. A few minutes later, I would find myself having another worried thought, and I would take it captive. I would say, ‘No, I refuse to take the care of that. Jesus, in accordance with Your Word, I roll the care of that over on You, because I know You care for me.’”
Pray against fear, worry and doubt in the lives of their Partners every day. Not a Partner? Become one today!
It may be tough at first, but the good news is, if you’ll be diligent to fight that battle against worry by keeping the Word in your heart and in your mouth, the time will come when that Word and the knowledge of God’s faithfulness is so big on the inside of you, you won’t have to fight it anymore.
Action Step:
Once you’ve taken a thought captive, when that worried thought tries to creep back in, immediately begin praying in the spirit. You’ll find it is impossible to worry when your spirit is in line with God’s.

There is nothing higher than God and His Word! Any other indulgence you seek for a temporary high is just a substitute for God!
2. Cast Your Cares by Replacing Worry With the Word
“Meditate on [the Word] day and night.” –Joshua 1:8
The next step to casting your cares on Jesus is to replace your worry with the Word. Many people want God to supernaturally remove their worry, but that is not the way to get the peace of God. Peace comes
