I love this powerful, reassuring Scripture:
Don’t worry about anything, but pray about everything. Then because you belong to Christ Jesus, God will bless you with a peace that no one can completely understand. And this peace will control the way you think and feel.
(Phil. 4: 6-7 CEV)
We live in uncertain times. We live in rapidly changing times. These are times that are fearful to all who do not know our God.
Wars…terrorists…anthrax…joblessness…economy…recession…child abductions…and the list goes on. During these times of such uncertainty, we, as children of God, have been given a peace that external fears cannot disturb.
We are to be ruled by this peace. The New King James version of the Bible states it this way: “And the peace of God…will keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
When a submarine descends into the depths of the ocean, the force and pressure on the outer hull would crush the submarine were it not for the release of equal pressure from within.
The internal God-given peace in your heart is greater than any external pressure from without. So rest assured, you will not only be victorious, but the wonderful ruling force at the very core of your being will remain undisturbed.
That force is called peace.
During WWII President Roosevelt said, “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.”
Fear is a spirit. It is not of God.
