Spending time alone with Me can be a difficult discipline, because it goes against the activity addiction of this age. You may appear to be doing nothing, but actually you are participating in battles going on within spiritual realms. You are waging war—not with the weapons of the world, but with heavenly weapons, which have divine power to demolish strongholds. Living close to Me is a sure defense against evil.
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”- JOHN 14:27
This is what the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One of Israel, says: “In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength, but you would have none of it.”- ISAIAH 30:15
The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.- 2 CORINTHIANS 10:4__________________________________________________
What do you think of when you hear the word peace? I think of quietness, stillness, protection and control. God is wanting this for every aspect of our lives. He does not want us to worry about the problems we face. He wants us to trust Him and feel His peace over our lives. When we face a challenge God tells us to release it on to Him. He will take care of our problems and cast peace, quietness, stillness, protection and control over our lives.
It is hard to find a quiet moment in today's hectic world. But it doesn't matter if it is while you are getting ready for work, driving in the car or cooking dinner. Take some time to give it all to God. You will feel peace when he is in control. This peace is completely against what the Devil wants in our lives, so strengthen God's kingdom by lifting your problems up to Him and letting Him lead with control.
I ask you right now, to ask God for peace in your life. Raise your problem up to Him and let Him take it from you. You will have a peaceful day. We all know we could use more of those!
