“Keep Me in Perfect Peace”

“Keep Me in Perfect Peace”



Today's Verse:
 “You will keep the mind that is dependent on You in perfect peace, for it is trusting in You.” - Isaiah 26:3 (HCSB)

We live in a restless world. It seems no matter where you turn noise and stress fill our lives. Finding peace is often times difficult. We all dream of a peaceful setting, maybe in the mountains, or on a private beach, but often times true peace is hard to find.

God has promised peace to those who trust in Him. This verse not only promises peace, but “perfect” peace. This is a constant peace; a peace that goes beyond natural understanding. It is the peace that settles in our heart even when the world around us is falling apart. This peace is not dependent on the situation. It is a peace that can come only from God.

How do you experience that kind of peace? This verse tells us that if we depend on God, then He will fill us with His peace. Depending on God is the expression of trust in God. It is a moment-by-moment reliance on Him. It is seeing God as the true source of all we need. It is a confession that God is good, and He can be trusted.

As you pray today, pray you would put your trust in God. Pray that you would not only obey God, but look to Him for all your needs for He cares for you. As you trust God on a moment-by-moment basis, you will experience peace like you have never experienced before as He takes you in The Father's hands and comfort you.

Father, I ask you to let me experience Your perfect peace today. I decide to put my faith, trust and hope in You, You will cover me with Your constant peace. Thank You for this promise, as I receive the Grace to walk in Your peace today.
In Jesus Name,
Amen
