Anxiety adds no value to one's life. Those who are over anxious about the well-being of another person or group are not functioning within the framework of the laws that govern true progress. Release your faith and let it work. Enter into rest and know in all certainty the results shall be achieved.
"Train people well enough so they can leave, treat them well enough so they don't want to."

You win life's battles regardless of what you come up against by one major principle. Your absolute faith in the love God has for you. You knowing that God is for you and not against you will put you over. Never let people make you think for a moment their attitude and behaviour against you is by the consent of God or represents God's feelings towards you. The voice of men is not the voice of God, or else Jesus should then have been judged as a criminal because he was placed on the cross and men chose Banabas over him.
When God says "I will make a way in the wildreness", somewhere else he speaks about this way calling it "The way of holiness." He is referring to the way he has now made into the holiest of all.
He provides springs of water for those who will choose to worship Him rather than complain in the wilderness.
This is the way he has made for us all in the wilderness. Stop waiting, wondering and looking for that way out in your crisis, it is the way he is speaking about. Once you get in, the wilderness will turn into a fruitful field. What you were trying to get out of becomes a great source of blessing.
He is leading us during the "wilderness" experience into the holiest of all to behold his face in worship and to rejoice in his presence. Glory in your necessities and watch his power work for you.
Did David not speak to this when he said in Psalm 16:11 "Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore."
What mercy reveals, grace fulfils. This is why it says .....Hebrews 4:16
"Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need"
We receive God's word into our system through meditation. In meditation, we create visual realities of God's word at work in our lives and experience the joy of its fulfilment in our consciousness.
Guilt vs. Condemnation.
There is a clear difference between guilt and condemnation. Christ didn't come to make us have no sense of guilt for our wrongdoings. He came to eliminate condemnation.
To be free of guilt will mean no sense of remorse, and therefore, the act of repentance will be eliminated from our faith.
Godly sorrow scripture says leads to repentance. Guilt can be defined as a feeling of worry or unhappiness that you have because you have done something wrong, such as causing harm to another person:.
To remove the sense of guilt will mean people have "no feeling" gone past that, and it will lead to a life without restraint or boundaries. People will hurt other people without even knowing they've done wrong.
Paul spoke about this in Ephesians saying of some
Ephesians 4:19
"Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness."
When David cut off the skirt in the garment of Saul , his heart smote him. He felt he had done something wrong, and he stopped. This is a healthy heart. Jesus didn't come to eliminate this. It is the condemnation he dealt with.
Condemnation can be defined as a punishment attached to your mistake where there is no wriggle room, no space to grow and change, and only the consequences of actions. Conviction is about awareness. Condemnation is a sentence of death with no mercy.
The eternal life within the believer, which would have been used for the development of the environment, is trapped within us through wrong indoctrination and fear. That which would have brought innovative ideas to our environment is now made subject to the traditions of men. People who should be standing upright and working miracles and rivers of living water flow out of their own bellies are running helter-skelter begging to be prayed for.
Coming from a humble background, your confidence is already low.
Stop hanging around people who talk you down. You need regular company of people who make you feel taller than you really are.
Believing in oneself is crucial to doing great things. You rarely hit a target you can't see.

This is so true. Societies or groups who don't allow diversity of ideas while pursuing the same objective will soon fall behind and wither on the vine.
