Bible Verse of The Day – 9-20-23

Isaiah 26:3 (NKJV) 3 You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You.

Peace is sometimes hard to find. We look for it in things or people we trust.

We frequently fail to find it.

Why?

Because we are looking to things in the natural world to satisfy our minds; our human understanding.

Perfect peace is even harder to find if we are looking to those same natural sources.

There is one true Source for perfect peace; the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6).

As we watch the world turn upside down it can be difficult to rest our minds.

We see the turmoil and it causes our minds to take off on wild journeys, wondering about all the “what ifs”, considering the endless possibilities for gloom and disaster.

And as long as we leave God out of the equation, that list of possibilities will be truly unlimited.

But we need to be clear about something. God does not work based on the “what if” principle.

He is the God of absolutes.

And it is in Him that we find perfect peace; the peace quells our anxieties, calms our fears, and brings rest to our minds. It is His peace that surpasses all understanding.

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.

People of God, it is not for us to trust in the institutions of the world. It is not for us to find solace in the things of the natural world. It is not for us to look to people or things to bring us peace during times of trouble.

Let us trust in Him, staying our minds on Him, where we will find perfect peace.

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-6-20

John 16:33 (NKJV) 33 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.”

Peace can be hard to find sometimes, especially if we look for it in the wrong places.

There are many things that bring us anything but peace.

It could come from our jobs, our finances, our health, and a lengthy list of other things that vary from one person to another.

Sometimes the situations we face may seem too big to overcome. These kinds of things can cause us to lose hope if we’re not careful to keep our eyes on God.

As we focus on the problem, instead of focusing on God and what He says, it grows bigger and bigger in our eyes. This is just our perception, though, and the enemy can use this to cause us to feel desperate.

We need to tell our minds to be quiet and we need to seek God’s wisdom in the midst of our trials. He will never steer us wrong.

His word is a light to us in dark times. And there is no situation too big for Him to help us overcome.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-25-20

John 14:27 (NKJV) 27 Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

As we have walked through the last week or two, this verse can really speak to us.

Most of us go from day to day with no major fears to dominate our thoughts or our cares. Yes, we each have troubles of one kind or another, but most of them are less than major or life-altering.

As we have watched the recent scare due to the virus that has made its way around most of the globe, it has been a good time to reflect on a lot of things.

On a personal level, I have mourned the state of humanity, as I have watched the vast majority of people become veritable monsters, as they hoard supplies with no concern or regard for fellow human beings, leaving those who are considerate of others with empty hands as they have sought after the necessities of life, such as food, common household and medical supplies.

It is this kind of behavior that confirms the fact that the world, by and large, has rejected God, and therefore has no peace and no respect for God or any kind of earthly authority.

As we follow our Savior from day to day, it is times like these when we begin to examine ourselves and see where we draw our strength and our peace from. The way we handle ourselves in circumstances like this will show us a lot about ourselves.

Where does our trust lie? Where do we get our peace of mind from? Who gives us what we need when the world fails us?

These are some pretty deep questions. And if we’re honest with our answers, they can be pretty sobering, at the very least.

But as we ponder on these things, let’s remember that there is One we draw our strength and peace from. He will never, ever let us down.

And I am persuaded that He is able to sustain me and keep me, through all things, even when my natural eyes, my mind and the world around me might try to tell me otherwise.

2 Timothy 1:12 (NKJV) 12 For this reason I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that Day.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-28-19

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.

The peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, is the key to a life that’s not constantly marred by stress and anxiety.

Once we begin to get this peace, we will begin to see our lives change in many ways.

But, the key to this is reaching a point where we live in this peace. How does that happen?

It’s all about trusting God. You see, as we learn to trust God more, we will begin to have more and more of this peace in our lives.

This is something that takes time and effort to make happen. It isn’t the result of someone praying over us, laying hands on us or prophesying it over us.

It takes a deliberate effort on our part. The funny thing, though, is that this effort can’t be directed at obtaining this peace. It has to be aimed at building our relationship with God.

Our relationship with God is the foundation of every other aspect of being His child. The strength of that relationship dictates how every other part of our lives plays out.

So, it’s critical that we make the effort and spend the time to build and keep our relationship strong. When that happens, our trust in God will grow. As our trust grows, anxiety, worry and stress gradually fade away into the background.

Spend time in His word. Make a deliberate effort to pray often, being sure not only to talk to God but also to listen to Him. Do what He directs you to do. And watch your life change as the peace of God permeates it.

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-5-15

1 Corinthians 14:33 (NKJV) 33 For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints.

Where God is, there will also be peace.

This is something that we need to remember when making choices and decisions in our lives. Sometimes the choices we have to make can be tough. Really tough.

And during those times of decision making, we can get pretty stressed out and confused if we’re trying to make them apart from God, or without listening for His voice.

Over the years, we’ve learned (sometimes the hard way) that if we have peace about a decision, then we are moving in the direction God wants us to move in, even if it might not always make sense to our minds.

But, if we think we are doing the right thing, and yet we have no peace, or it feels chaotic, then we are probably moving in the wrong direction, even if it makes sense to our minds.

One thing to keep in mind is that if we are doing something that’s totally new to us, and we’re unfamiliar with it, we might feel a bit uneasy simply because it’s not something we’re used to doing. That’s perfectly normal.

Being uneasy or a bit apprehensive is different than feeling confused or chaotic. Because even if we’re doing something new and unfamiliar, we can still have God’s peace about it.

So remember; the enemy is the author of confusion. But God is the author of peace!
