There are different sources and reasons why people feel insecurity, but among them is the lack of faith, confidence and trust in God.

Use these Bible verses to realize and learn that God has provided has purpose for our lives. These Bible verses will get rid of the doubts we have in His plans, for doubt is only work of Satan.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.  Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable-if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about such things.  Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me-put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. - Proverbs 4: 6-9

Instead of thinking about negative thoughts, realize that God made us all beautiful and that we need not to be worried about anything. In this Bible verse, we are also encouraged to think of pure and positive things.

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.  For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.  Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place. -Ephesians 6:10-14

When the evil starts attacking us with wrong and negative thoughts, counter it with prayer. Learn to ask help from God to deliver you from evil thoughts. Remember that insecurity is just more on personal level which does not really mean anything in heaven.

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is-his good, pleasing and perfect will. -Romans 12:2

We feel so insecure when we are so engrossed with the things of the world. Therefore, watch out of the things that are only pure and good in the eyes of God. Renew your mind to what is best and keep away from troubling yourself about less important things.
