Meltdown
Pastor David highlights the significance of prayer as the first line of defense against anxiety and potential meltdowns. He references the biblical story of King Jehoshaphat from 2 Chronicles 20, who faced a formidable enemy but chose to seek God first in prayer rather than relying on his own strength. Recognize anxiety as a signal of an impending meltdown rather than a permanent condition, and respond with prayer and worship.
