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 – 8-22-15

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.

Understanding. It’s the key to so many things.

The verses above tell us to be anxious for nothing and to let God’s peace that surpasses all understanding guard our hearts and minds through Christ.

There’s some very important instruction for us here, especially when it comes to trusting God, even when we might not understand everything.

God tells us to have peace that surpasses all understanding. This means that despite being in circumstances or going through trials that we may not understand, we can (and should) still have peace, even in the midst of those seemingly-confusing things.

We may face something that seems truly hard to swallow in the natural; the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, a terrible disease in our life or the life of someone we know… there can be a huge list of things that we might face and that we don’t understand.

But, as we learn to trust God, He will give us peace despite the turmoil around us. We can have peace because of our walk with God and the assurance that we have that it’s all in His hands.

We don’t rely on the things of this world to give us peace. We rely on our heavenly Father, the creator of all we see.

And that is why it is called peace that surpasses all understanding.

So look beyond your circumstances today. Look past the chaos of the world. Look past the negativity of those around you. Look past the mockers and the naysayers.

And let His peace surround you and flood your soul.
