Casting Down Imaginations Presented By: Elder Jason Ransom

Beyond Belief

Lesson Origin: Philippians 4:6-13• 6Be careful for nothing [NIV: Do not be anxious about anything];

but in every thing by prayer and supplication [petition] with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

• 7And the peace of God, which passeth [transcends] all understanding, shall keep our hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

• 8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

• 9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.

You must realize that FEAR IS NOT REAL!

Lesson Origin: I can do all things…• 11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in

whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.

• 12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.

• 13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

You must realize that FEAR IS NOT REAL!
