How to Stop Panicking and Start Trusting God | Daily Devotional
Feb 13, 2026 Season 2026 Episode 45
Rob Westwood-Payne

What if your panic is drowning out the very voice that can save you? Today you'll discover four powerful ways to replace panic with trust in God.

Psalm 46:10 says, "Be still, and know that I am God." But when disaster hits, being still feels impossible. Learn from Mary at the wedding in Cana and the widow in 1 Kings 17 - people who didn't panic when crisis came, but turned to God instead.

In this devotional, you'll learn how to focus on Jesus instead of your problems, remember who God really is, take action even when you can't see the outcome, and trust God's timing when it doesn't match your panic's timeline.

📖 TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
Psalm 46:10 | 1 Kings 17:13 | John 2:3-5

💡 KEY TAKEAWAYS:

• Trust acts while panic freezes
• Look for God's provision in this moment, not just the final solution

✅ YOUR CHALLENGE THIS WEEK:
When panic rises, pause. Speak one truth about God out loud before you do anything else. Then take the next right step.
