Since Biblical times, anxiety has been one of the biggest enemies humans have had to face. If you recall, Saul, went through a period of anxiety, fear, and torment. Although he was the King, his status, power and wealth did not bring him peace when he needed it the most. None of his possessions calmed his tormented heart. However, every time David played his harp, Saul found comfort. The only time Saul was able to find peace was in the midst of worship. Only when we worship God, we are able to put our anxiety, fear and worry to the side. Which is why I encourage you to create a playlist for yourself of worship songs that can help comfort your anxious heart! Here are 10 worship songs I love to listen to when the anxiety starts kicking in.

WEAPON OF WORSHIP
Whether you are going through a season of anxiety, pain, brokenness, or worry, you are not alone. Not only has God promised to be with us at all times, but he has also given us powerful weapons to fight our giants of anxiety and fear. Prayer, scripture, and worship are three of the most powerful weapons a Christian can possess. Worship is one of the greatest weapons we can use to help fight our anxiety.
