things so that in me you may have peace in this world you will have trouble but take heart I have overcome the world the peace that God gives you makes light of every situation it instills calmness in your heart it brings Stillness to your being this peace surpasses human understanding meaning that with the peace of God in your life people will wonder how calm you are despite the many challenges around you Colossians 3:15 says let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts since as members of one body you were called to peace God necessitates
peace because it is the only way to survive amidst the unending pressure disappointments and unforeseen events however you can only activate your peace by trusting God in the face of Trials your instinct is not peace you first think about how to solve the challenge when you can't see through your next response might be worry or anxiety the journey to living in peace starts with a choice you must decide to believe in God as long as you keep worrying it is a sign that you do not trust him regardless of how ready God is to step
in and help he cannot if you do not have faith in him your faith gives him full authority to take over from you when you depend on God you can be sure sure he will never fail you trusting God can be hard especially when facing a tough time and seeing no way through how then can you trust and keep peace simultaneously how do you remain steadfast when the situation glares at you with no sign of chain the answer to the question is leaning on God there is no way around it the Bible says that without
him you can do nothing you must must constantly rely on God's help to endure such moments if you are wondering how you can keep your peace let me share a few practical steps with you number one Let It Go why do you feel the need to always control every situation this is the major reason you struggle to keep your peace as much as this is good it can become problematic when you feel you can solve every situation that was not part of your wiring God did not create you to have it all together this means
you will face certain circumstances and be completely clueless about the way out if your first response is to rush at the problem you might likely get frustrated how much longer can you carry those worries God is calling you to lay it down before him Matthew 11: 28:29 says come to me all you who are we and burdened and I will give you rest take my yoke upon you and learn from me for I am gentle and humble in heart and you will find rest for your souls if you want peace then you must be willing
to accept change you have to switch your response to the challenges you encounter God wants you to learn of him because he knows how to overcome those obstacles better you cannot attack that situation the way you've been doing and expect a different outcome this is why you must let go of your grip if you hold on to it or try to do it yourself God cannot help you there is a need for you to bring those challenges to God he knows exactly what to do when you do not when you cannot see a way out
please bring it to the one who creates ways where there is none he has been handling human problems for a long time no challenge in your life life can intimidate God your situation may be too big in your sight but not in his he encourages you to cast your cares on him for he cares is it not encouraging to know that God is willing to take the stress off your hands what is stopping you from letting go why do you keep trying in your strength let God have the wheel today believe that he can handle
those issues better than you ever will one of the things that you might form the habit of is trying to check in on God when you let go allow him to take his time to fix those issues when you keep asking God for instant answers it unsettles your peace even if God can give instant answers understand that your demands cannot hasten him to do so God is Sovereign and He commands times and Seasons this means he knows exactly when to bring the answ you request from him if you have truly given him control you must
also trust he is capable of the job you do not need to occasionally supervise him or find out how he is doing it let him prepare the best blessings for you the word of God encourages you today that even though your answers are delayed they will come to pass God does not lie and he will not disappoint you giving him control is one of the best decisions you can make for your life lighten the burden in your heart today and embrace his peace number two stop thinking about it when unforeseen events happen your mind tries
to understand things while this is not wrong you might create room for worry if you dwell on it the more you think about it the more you question yourself you ask why am I in this situation you might even wonder why you are in such a mess have you realized that you cannot provide answers to these questions the truth is that you will not always have answers or understand everything that happens to you you must be content with not getting the full picture sometimes God reveals your future in phases he does not give you all
the details this is because he wants you to trust him through the process however if you keep trying to understand or make meaning out of things you might end up at a conclusion that is not true one of the ways you know that you are overthinking is when confusion starts to set in God is not asking you not to engage your thoughts he wants you to think with the help of the Holy Spirit there is a difference between meditating in God's presence and merely allowing your thoughts to wander Isaiah 263 says you will keep in
perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast because they trust in you this scripture Explains It All you have to study your mind in thought that aligns with God's will how about you thinking about his faithfulness why not remind yourself of what he can do in your circumstances the Bible encourages you to think about things that are noble and profitable overthinking the problem is not a sign of faith it shows that you do not completely surrender to God or rely on him to change your circumstances if you choose peace you must stop magnifying those challenges in
your thoughts instead entertain thoughts that drive out anxiety and keep you at rest think about how you will celebrate your Victory think about how you will sing when your medical result comes out in your favor think about how you will dance on your wedding day think think positively while God works it out number three keep off strife and be contented one of the ways that you can hold your peace is to be contentment you will be much happier if you understand that God will eventually give you what you do not have right now nothing is
worth losing your peace over do not envy or compare yourself with others do not always strive to get what others have because you want to feel good economics tells us that human needs are insatiable this means that it does not stay content for too long it keeps seeking satisfaction and this cycle is unending if you keep trying to feed your desires and wants you will get frustrated when you cannot provide all you crave so be happy with what you have and where God has positioned you per time on your way to the next blessings Strife
comes when we think others are better than us the Bible says though compare themselves with themselves are not wise we live in a world where people sell off their peace with the currency of comparison we just want to be like the next person and the truth is there will always be someone better than you have you heard the same the beautiful ones are not yet born this is not just about facial Beauty it applies to all aspects of Our Lives the best car has not been built the most beautiful house is yet to be constructed
so don't sell off your peace for your natural Cravings love people who are making progress and trust God to do yours rather than despising what you have because someone has something better the Bible commands that you live in peace with all men this is because because God knew it would be a hard decision however this is not impossible understand that to choose peace you might sometimes suffer in your flesh this means you must let go of ways you would rather react in certain situations you will have to do what God wants let's look at an
instance if someone is trying to pick a fight or argue over something you are right about God will demand that you choose chose peace this might demand that you leave the conversation and let them win it also means that you trust God to give them Clarity this is where suffering In the Flesh comes in because you may be unhappy at that moment however your decisions show that you are letting God take control strive and contention will not give you any advantage you do not always have to get your opinions out if You observe a misunderstand
understanding it is better to exit such atmospheres don't get lured into a negative argument you must learn to be sensitive when people treat you unfairly God does not expect you to fight them back you have to hold your peace and let God fight your battles when you feel pressured like Jehoshaphat and the children of Judah take God's counsel he told them they would not have to strive against their enemies and they did not they kept their trust in God when it looked like they were outwitted in the end he defeated their enemies without them raising
a sword whoever is Raging war against you or threatening your peace is also standing against God your opponents do not stand a chance as long as you have God on your side this is why you should not contend with them trust God to defend you while you stand still there are other ways you can access Tranquility for your Soul let's go on number four study the Bible the Bible is every believer's anchor for life it carries the Breath of God and can instill quiet in your soul in times of Trials the word of God will
give you shity you cannot even develop your faith in God if you do not know his capacity this is why you study and meditate on the word if Ephesians 427 says and do not give the devil a foothold if you do not know God's word the enemy will come to tell you lies he will make you see only your circumstances but your help is in God how do you tap into this help by standing on the word of God the psalmist says that God will keep him in perfect peace whose heart is stayed on him
I love this scripture you will surely enjoy the peace of God over that situation assuring you that God will take care of it when you allow your heart to stay on God and His word no news is more assuring than the Bible some people can spend hours listening to news of War inflation and negative forecasts and they end up Disturbed all day but the Bible contains only good news it contains the life testimony of people who God has handed over their battles to God and how he showed up for them this testimony will strengthen your
faith and make you see that your case is not closed so study the word often you must not give the enemy space to control your mind or speak lies you have to go in search of knowledge find out what God says about your needs finances and family when you find the truth meditate on it let it be your focus as you spend time with God you can take advantage of the technological devices if you have a busy schedule listen to an audio Bible or Christian book on your way to work search for Christian videos that
explain or give you a better understanding of God play on repeat scriptures that speak about peace and Trust as you sleep if you do this there will be no room for discouragement or worry your heart will become saturated with Assurance from God's word the spirit of faith will fill your mind and keep you in expectation if you think about it worry doesn't just happen it is from the enemy he wants you to take your mind off God's promises this is why your mind never goes to God's word when anxious if you however habitually study the
word you defeat the enemy it gives him zero opportunity to taunt you with doubt or fear hold on to the word of God he always keeps to his word and is intentional about seeing you fulfill your glorious future this means that he will hold you even through the rough patches God will guide you through the merry clay and get your feet to Solid Ground all you have to do is believe in him you must allow him to be the compass on your journey today hold your peace and trust God about what troubles you one of
the ways you can keep the scriptures on your mind is to declare them when you say it it shows that you believe it every time you speak God's word it gives you peace and assures you of God's presence say it daily declare his word boldly write it out paste it on your wall and say it out take the battle away from your mind to the physical Paul asks that the word of God dwells in you richly don't let your heart be scarce of God's word fill it up and let it overflow another way to keep
your peace is by encouraging others through the word many people are going through worse challenges than you as you strengthen their faith through the Scriptures it also encourages you number five submit your plans to God there is so much peace in letting go of your plans and aligning with what God wants for you each time you try to push your plans you might meet a brick wall have you thought that you might even be following the wrong path you will always find peace when you walk in God's will you will always meet resistance if you
try to solve a problem outside God's instr instructions can you now see the little things that temper with your peace Proverbs 356 says trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding in all your ways submit to him and he will make your paths straight you cannot trust your understanding or plans above God this is why you must surrender your ways to him your expertise skill or Talent is not always the way out even your affluence cannot exceed God's wisdom today choose to see from God's perspective ask him what
his plans are for you accepting his will will make you enjoy the peace that flows boundlessly the safest place you can be is in the will of God this is why you spend your time engaging in prayers of inquiry these types of prayers divert your attention from what you want it focuses on what God wants when God sees this level of dependence he shows you the right path to take you no longer find yourself struggling to find Solutions if you are experiencing hurdles maybe you need to check in on God find out what exactly his
plans are for you and follow in obedience anytime you stay in God's purpose peace naturally follows even when you face resistance you have an assurance that he will walk you through them number six identity peace dealers what are the things that fight your peace everyone has specific things that contend and steal their peace it could be anger hurt discomfort worry or bitterness for you whatever it is you must pinpoint it and be more mindful as long as you live in this world these things will keep attacking your mind but you must decide to create boundaries
you must learn to prioritize and keep your peace at all costs as you grow in faith you'll understand that nothing is worth losing your peace over if God gave you this peace you must keep it safe and avoid triggers learning to walk away from situation ations and people that cause you discomfort might be a start to protecting your peace when people are not feeding your mind encouraging your growth keeping them close is unnecessary you can choose to avoid certain conversations if they stir up thoughts of anxiety or worry you must become conscious of your mental
space and what you let into your mind even the Bible teaches you to guard your heart because life issues proceed out of it you have to diligently watch out for people who are potential triggers or who temper with the serenity you feel you cannot truly enjoy peace if you live in unforgiveness who are you angry at how deep is that hurt that you can't let go eventually you have to forgive if you want peace with yourself when you choose to Pardon others you also set yourself free this is why forgiveness is more for you than
your offender think about the mercy and love that Christ extended to you you can also show the same Grace to others if you let it lighten the burden in your heart you also have to learn that forgiveness is not a feeling it is a change in attitude towards your offenders when you let go it also allows God's peace to overwhelm you number seven cultivate the habit of singing to God God does not want you to let the problem bother you Philippians 467 says do not be anxious about anything but in every situation by prayer and
petition with Thanksgiving present your requests to God and the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus this verse says that in all things things you must take it to God In Prayer with Thanksgiving this is key in seasons of Trials if you carefully look at your life you will realize there are reasons to be grateful the challenges sometimes Cloud your judgment and make you forget all the blessings you received from God you must know how to make a melody in your heart counting the goodness of
God in your life also gives you confidence that he will do what you ask of him look in retrospect to moments when you were in need and remember how God came through with your current answers that is the same way he will do what you seek him four the Bible teaches you to sing hymns and Psalms to God as you rejoice each time you choose Joy over worrying the enemy loses his grip on your mind when you thank God for his faithfulness you see fewer reasons to complain claim or doubt his ability as the verse
says you receive his peace when you present your needs with Thanksgiving it describes the state as one that surpasses human understanding it also keeps your heart steadfast and in God's will you can try this today sing worship and praises to God and let it stir up excitement in your spirit in moments when you feel weak you can play spiritual songs and declarations it conditions your mind and atmosphere with joy beloved I'm sure you now understand how to guard your peace this is a daily choice that you must make you have to be intentional about how
you respond when the storm comes take a lesson from Jesus in the face of a turbulent wind he did not fret Jesus rebuked the storm and there was calm each time you choose to maintain a peace you tell the enemy you are unfazed by the challenges it also shows God that you believe he is working out something for you you are not letting it control you when you remain calm amidst trials understand that peace does not necessarily mean the absence of chaos this means you can have abundant peace while going through the toughest moments learn
to show an unwaver ing faith in God when situations arise learn to adapt quickly to them do not let it determine your mood in moments where you don't understand or see a way through keep trusting keep delighting yourself in the promises of God and he will give you the desires of your heart understand that as you wait on God the enemy will bring alternatives to entice you but you must disregard them each time your breakthrough is close he will try to make you compromise this is why you must stand firm and resist him if you
choose to wait on God you will not lack anything he will satisfy you and settle all your concerns right now he is bringing blessings healing you of that sickness and opening new doors do not give up Victory is sure as long as God is for you continue to stay calm because God will perfect all that concerns you God bless you let us pray heavenly father I acknowledge that you are my Creator your goodness and mercy are Everlasting your thoughts are past findings thank you for your grace upon my life I Now understand how to let
