Greetings to you Beloved, trust you are doing well today.
Over the last few days, we have walked a beautiful journey together:
Day 1 reminded us that the Lord is our Portion.
Day 2 showed us that the Lord is our Provider.
Day 3 reminded us that the Lord is our Shepherd.
Day 4 taught us that the Lord is our Strength.
And today, Day 5, we see another gift: The Lord is my Peace.
Jesus said in John 14:27, “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.”
Peace is not just the absence of noise or problems. Peace is a calm heart in the middle of noise, storms, and challenges. The world can offer quick comfort—maybe money, fun, or distractions—but it cannot give lasting peace. Only Jesus can give the kind of peace that stays, even when everything around us shakes.
Think about when you are worried or restless inside. It feels like a storm in your heart. But the moment you bring that worry to God in prayer, something happens. The storm doesn’t always disappear, but His peace comes and covers you like a gentle blanket. That peace tells you, “It is well.”
Philippians 4:7 says, “And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” This means His peace is stronger than human logic. You may not be able to explain it, but you can feel it. You just know deep inside that God is in control.
In life, storms will come—family challenges, health struggles, financial worries, or even silent battles no one else sees. But the good news is this: the Lord is your Peace. He calms the storm inside you first, and then gives you courage to face the storm outside.
So today, don’t let fear or anxiety rule your heart. Let the Prince of Peace, Jesus, guard your mind. Remember, His peace is not temporary—it is deep, lasting, and real.
Prayer:
Lord Jesus, thank You for being my Peace. Calm every storm in my heart today and help me to rest in You. Amen.
Life Application:
Whenever you feel troubled today, whisper this: “Jesus is my Peace.” Take a few minutes to breathe deeply, pray, and let His peace flood your heart.
Tons of Love
