Prière contre l'anxiété

Anxiety is a common experience today. And if you feel pulled in a million directions and you're exhausted from trying to keep going, there's something powerful you can do to pause and refocus: pray. When you're dealing with anxiety, prayer can be an intentional way to gain some peace and clarity. And praying regularly can help you learn to trust God with your worries and let go of control.

The truth is that there is no right way to pray. Prayers for anxiety and stress don't have to be complicated or time consuming. Feeling overwhelmed by anxiety can be a tough hole to come out of, especially if you're prone to panic attacks. And while the scriptures aren't the equivalent of speaking with a licensed professional, verses about anxiety can help give you peace of mind as your worries battle to take over your day. Incorporating a few short prayers for anxiety into your daily spiritual practice can be a helpful way to reconnect with God and remind yourself that He is there with you to provide support and love when you feel alone.

If you are looking for protection prayers or scriptures to send to a friend struggling with mental illness, these anxiety prayers can be restorative for a mind overwhelmed with worry. Anxiety can set in at any time. We live in a world that attacks us daily with events and situations that cause anxiety and panic to rise. Anxiety, if left untreated, can slowly rise to a level of unrelenting panic and fear. Although we can do a good job of hiding and masking it, anxious feelings will destroy it from within. From inability to focus on tasks to panic attacks, Satan will use anxiety to keep you from fully living the life God has for you. We can combat anxiety through prayer and cast our worries on God.

Again, reading Bible verses about depression or anxiety is not a psychological treatment that will get to the root of why you are feeling anxious. Talking with your healthcare provider and insurance company to find a therapist near you can put you on the path to digging deeper into your anxiety and learning coping mechanisms. That said, uplifting verses can always help you on your way to healing. Reading one or more of these short prayers for anxiety before bed can help quell any racing thoughts so you can get a better night's sleep. Surrounding yourself with the words of the Lord's disciples can give you the encouragement you need to overcome the battle you face.


No matter what you face today that causes you to seek God's help, rest assured that He can give you "peace that passes understanding" in the face of fears. You can start praying for your anxiety today and trusting God for tomorrow. Through prayer you can release the worry of Him, who loves you, and know that He has a plan for everything in your life. The best thing you can do when you feel anxiety rising is to bring it to God in prayer. Experience the power of surrendering your worries to God and receiving his peace.

Many of us are concerned about the various events that are happening in our country and in the world. You may be wondering how these events will affect you and your family. It is natural to feel stress and anxiety at times.
