Bible Verse of The Day – 9-24-20

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

Do we suffer from anxiety? Do we wake up at night gasping for air, panicking over something that is weighing on our minds?

We’ve been there. It’s frustrating.

After struggling through a night of broken sleep, we do our best to go about our day and find some kind of peace. And then, out of nowhere, we’re reminded of our situation. Finding peace in that can be difficult.

But God’s peace surpasses all understanding. To surpass means to exceed; be greater than.

Sometimes when we are anxious or worried about something, we don’t want to hear about God’s peace. We want something done about the situation we are in. Peace is not what we think we need at that moment.

But, it is the very thing we need to have if we want to move forward and work things out.

We can not be moved by anxiety. We can not be moved by our fear. We can not be moved by a lack of understanding. We can not move forward without God’s peace.

The peace of God upon us will move us in the direction we need to go. It will guard our heart and mind and keep us on the right track.

God’s peace surpasses, or should we say, exceeds and is greater than all understanding.

Get God’s peace. Amen.
