Peace Is Yours For the Asking






The mind is a very important thing to waste. The enemy attacks us in our mind, he desires to rob our peace. Therefore we have to guard our mind. Paul reminds us in Philippians 2:16 we have the mind of Christ. We should think like Christ think, having a Christ-like attitude. When the enemy comes in like a flood, we have to be like Jesus and declare the scriptures. Satan tried to tempt Jesus when He was in the wilderness and to place doubt in His mind by saying "If you are the Son of God", however Jesus boldly said to him, it is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but every word that comes from the mouth of God. God's word can overthrow our enemy, Satan. Whether it's through family, friends or love ones, the enemy will use any tactic to try to shake our peace.  Refuse to allow the enemy to steal your peace, He is subtle and cunning, shake him off! Every time the enemy attacks me, I shake it off and move forward. In spite of everything else moving, God's promise of peace will never change (Isaiah 54:10).


We have to stand firm in Christ, rely on His promises and know the peace of God which passeth all understanding shall keep our hearts and mind through Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Following Christ's is the way to real peace, thinking Godly thoughts, having our minds center on Him.  God is greater than our understanding. He can give us such an awesome peace if we keep our minds stayed on Him, and meditate on His word our mind can be renewed. The bible reminds us in Philippians 4:8, to meditate on things that are true, noble, pure, just, lovely and of good report. We must exercise our faith in Christ by believing God's Word. 


Memory Scripture: Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you, not as the world giveth, give I unto you.  Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. John 14:27 


Prayer: Father in Heaven, help us to know that You will keep us in perfect peace, if we keep our mind stayed on You. Help us to always trust in You. Lord if we ask anything in Your name, You will do it, give us peace beyond human understanding, and we thank You in advance for it. In the mighty name of Jeshua.  Amen!


Shabbat Shalom!!!
