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.
Philippians 4:6-7 (NKJV)
When we apply the basis of our faith to God, and acknowledge our need, as we praise Him fully, and grasp the reality of His Sovereign Omnipotent nature, He will guard our hearts and mind with His peace.
We need to understand, that by going directly to Him, and “trusting Him,” to take care of what it is we need, He will do just that.
He is our main source of vitality, and energy.
He is our connection to lighting up the world, with His gentle hands of grace, and tolerance that is beyond our comprehension.
Our prayers turn to a different “level” entirely, when we go to Him unconditionally, and run to His throne, while openly submitting to Him. Then let our requests will be made known to Him—(which He already knows before we even know what we need)— and He will take care of us.
He will bring the peace to our body, heart, mind, and soul, without any doubt. He will guard our hearts, and mind, through Christ. Evidence of this is apparent, for those of us who truly trust, love and obey Him. I’m quite confident that we all have stories that are a witness to His great glory.
The clear and concise outcome of a session with the LORD, is an immediate sense of peace. Because when we focus on Him, we receive His peace, just as He promises He’ll do.
His promises are unbreakable, impregnable, and sustainable. He is the focus of our narrative in all we do, feel, and endeavor to be. He cares for us in a way that “no one” ever could, or ever will.
When we become anxious, or uncertain about a situation, or circumstance, we should “RUN” not walk…immediately to Him.
Run to Him, with a willingness and openness, that will facilitate the remedy we need. That is to say “His peace.”
His wisdom, His grace, and His unmoving, and unconditional and everlasting Love will cover us all the days of our time here on earth, and beyond in the eternity.
Make no mistake, we cannot do anything without God.
He is in control at all time.
His grace, His love, and His intervention are impervious to evil and darkness.
He is the antithesis of “hate” and ” chaos.”
He is “light, love, and peace.”
When we acquiesce to His will, and His magnificence, and offer ourselves in a contrite, and heartfelt fashion, while bringing all of our requests to Him…we will be rewarded by His peace, and He will guard our minds, and hearts forever. Amen!
“Father, thank You for Your love, protection, and guidance in all things, and for listening to me, as I bring my requests, and cast my anxiety before You. I lay them down, and offer my love, and obedience, and trust, to You. I know you will guard my heart, and mind, while offering me Your peace, in all I do, today, tomorrow, and always, in Jesus name, Amen.”
Let everyone see that you are considerate in all you do. Remember, the Lord is coming soon.[
Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. 7 Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.
Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me—everything you heard from me and saw me doing. Then the God of peace will be with you.
