The peace of God, which surpasses every understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7
Jesus
said, “I will give you My peace, not as the world gives, but My peace.”
This peace will keep you calm in the midst of
the turmoil. When Jesus was in the boat and sleeping in the stern,
winds and waves rose against the boat. All the disciples of Jesus and
others in the boat were panicking and trying everything to save
themselves. Jesus was sleeping without any worries about death. Jesus
knew it was not His time to die. The disciples cried out to Jesus for
help. Jesus immediately commanded the wind and the sea and said, “Peace,
be still.” There was great calm. (Mark 4:39)
This was beyond everyone's understanding. The peace in Jesus, didn't
make Him panic like others, instead it gave Him authority to command to
the opposing forces to calm down and they obeyed Jesus.
That
Peace, Jesus wants you to have. It will not only keep you calm and
still, but also guard your mind and heart. Whenever people or the devil
will try to put the panicking thoughts and restless thoughts in your
mind or your heart, the peace of Jesus will guard your heart and stop
such thoughts from entering your heart. The peace of Jesus in you tells
you that God is in control of your life and things will work out for
your good. Though you are not healed now, but Jesus will heal you.
Though you have not got your promotion now, but Jesus will give you your
promotion. Though things are not in your favor now, but God will work
things out in your favor.
The
peace from God gives you an assurance within. You know and know that
things will change for your good. That’s why it’s beyond your
understanding. In your trouble times, call upon Jesus to help you and
He will give His peace to you. You will have the authority and you will
not panic. You will be in control and calm
