Good morning, ladies. Isaiah 26:3 (NLT) says, "You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you! 4 Trust in the LORD always, for the LORD GOD is the eternal Rock."
We all go through things that we would rather not go through. Life is going to life at times. Having peace doesn't mean there won't be struggles. In fact, Jesus tells us in John 16:33 that "you WILL have MANY trials AND sorrows. BUT take heart, because I have overcome the world."
Sis, peace is something only Jesus can give, and we believers can experience peace in trials and sorrows. Think about this: how can you know if you truly have peace, unless you have a trial, and in the midst of that trial, you have peace?
Jesus will give you peace if you keep your thoughts and your actions FIXED on Him. Invite Him into that situation. Take those anxious thoughts and go back to the truth, which is God's Word. What do you need to surrender to God this morning?
Verse 3 is a promise that I want you to claim and declare over yourself today:
Father God, I love you because of who you are. I thank you for your Word that tells me that you will give me peace when my thoughts are fixed on you, Jesus. Today, I declare I will have peace in this season, I will have peace in my mind, I will have peace in my marriage, I will have peace in my household, and I will have peace at my job. Today, I align my faith with your will, God, and with your promises. I will trust in you always, even when it's hard. You are my eternal Rock. It's in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus I pray, amen.
I love y'all, have a blessed day 🧡
