Bible Verse of The Day – 6-11-16

Philippians 4:7 (NKJV) 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

When we are walking in the things God has for us, there is peace. It doesn’t matter what is going on around us, peace will be the proof that we are where we need to be.

Peace is what helps us push through those things even when we are feeling exhausted from the journey.

Peace is what will carry us when we have no idea of WHAT to do other than to keep on keeping on.

Peace will help us smile, when we want to cry or be angry because of the pain we feel, or the scars we carry.

Peace is what will cause us to reach out to help others even when we need help ourselves.

May God’s peace be with us no matter what we are dealing with today.

We love you and our prayers are with you each day. God is faithful!

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-18-15

Philippians 4:7 (NKJV) 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

As I sit at my desk this morning, on my wall is a plaque that says “PEACE.”

Things may be happening all around us in this world. Things that would like to steal our peace. But, as we stand together, praying for each other, seeking God in all we do, His peace is there for us.

Some may say “how do we walk in this peace when the world seems to be in a terrible mess? When our family member is suffering with addictions and diseases, and our finances are in turmoil? How do we have peace when our marriage is falling apart and our children are slipping away?”

It certainly won’t happen by someone saying “calm down, it’s not that bad.” That’s not going to help us because the truth is, sometimes it is that bad and very hard to face.

We can only calm down when we face the truth and allow the truth to speak to us, causing us to admit and realize that we need God to help us handle what we are facing.

When Caleb came back from spying out the land, he didn’t pretend what he had seen was not bad. He saw it for what it was. He knew there were giants in the land that they were told to possess, but he also knew God and His Mightiness!

He knew what they would be up against, but that they could overcome it with God’s help.

Turning a blind eye to what is happening around us, ignoring medical test results, or life-threatening situations is not going to make things any less troublesome. It won’t bring peace.

We have to face it, see it for what it is and then go after it.

Numbers 13:30 (NKJV) Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses, and said, “Let us go up at once and take possession, for we are well able to overcome it.”

Acknowledging our battle and asking God for help will bring God’s peace, His understanding and anything else we need.

Peace be with us today.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-22-15

Philippians 4:6-7 (NKJV) 6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Understanding. It’s the key to so many things.

The verses above tell us to be anxious for nothing and to let God’s peace that surpasses all understanding guard our hearts and minds through Christ.

There’s some very important instruction for us here, especially when it comes to trusting God, even when we might not understand everything.

God tells us to have peace that surpasses all understanding. This means that despite being in circumstances or going through trials that we may not understand, we can (and should) still have peace, even in the midst of those seemingly-confusing things.

We may face something that seems truly hard to swallow in the natural; the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, a terrible disease in our life or the life of someone we know… there can be a huge list of things that we might face and that we don’t understand.

But, as we learn to trust God, He will give us peace despite the turmoil around us. We can have peace because of our walk with God and the assurance that we have that it’s all in His hands.

We don’t rely on the things of this world to give us peace. We rely on our heavenly Father, the creator of all we see.

And that is why it is called peace that surpasses all understanding.

So look beyond your circumstances today. Look past the chaos of the world. Look past the negativity of those around you. Look past the mockers and the naysayers.

And let His peace surround you and flood your soul.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-15-15

Romans 5:1-2 (NKJV) 1 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

We have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Peace can sometimes be hard to find. Our world is so full of chaos and strife. It makes peace seem almost nonexistent.

But as followers of Christ, we don’t get our peace from the world. We don’t get our peace from other people. Our peace comes from God.

As we grow in Christ, we learn to trust God with everything in our lives, including those times when we are faced with unexpected, stressful situations. In the natural, it’s easy to get stressed and become frantic.

But if we walk by faith, we will learn to look past what we see in the natural, and see things through new eyes, in the spiritual realm. Learning to do this will help us to lean on God and trust Him, no matter what we face.

It’s not always easy to do, but as we grow and mature as a believer, it gets easier each time. Eventually, it become almost second nature. And as we get better and better at it, the hard things we face have less and less impact on us.

2 Samuel 22:31 (NKJV) 31 As for God, His way is perfect; The word of the Lord is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him.

Trust Him and let Him give us His peace.

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-28-15

Philippians 4:7 (NKJV) 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

It’s God’s peace that keeps us on the right track. Having His peace leads us into making the right decisions and doing the right things.

I know that there have been many times when have I wanted to make my own decisions, without consulting Him first, because I feared the answer He would give me would be something I wouldn’t want to hear. I’ve paid the price at times because of this, and have many regrets.

What would we rather have, God’s peace or to be doing what we want to do? We are the only ones that can answer this question for ourselves.

If we want to walk in God’s peace, there may be times we will have to say no to things we would love to be doing, and it will be pretty tempting to do the opposite. But when we walk in the peace of God, and experience the feeling it brings, we will never want to go back to walking outside of it.

There will be sacrifices we will make at times to continually stay in His peace, but it will be well worth it!!

Choose God’s peace today. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-1-15

John 16:33 (NKJV) These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

We are so blessed to be God’s children. What a good Father He is to us. Having God’s peace is the one thing that gets us through the toughest of tough times.

Without it, situations and circumstances can be hard, difficult and uncomfortable to deal with.

We could be going through a very hard time right now, and maybe some of us are. What we need to do is get the peace of God working in us to calm the storm.

The first thing we need to do is draw close to Him, by praying, reading His word and listening. When we pray, tell Him how we feel and what we are going through. Then ask for forgiveness for the things we may have done to contribute to the problem.

Ask Him for His Peace. His peace will help guide us through. It will help us make good decisions, not decisions out of anxiousness.

Philippians 4:7 (NKJV) 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Now that we’ve shared it with Him, we rest by trusting Him to show us the way.

Matthew 11:28 (NKJV) 28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
