Take My Peace

And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. Mark 4:39

Now may the Lord of peace himself give you his peace at all times and in every situation. The Lord be with you all. 2 Thessalonians 3:16

Grab a steady hold, calm down when needed, and demand Peace. No matter how old or young you are, there are things that we face that work to get our Peace and shake our confidence in God. Today’s opening scripture is about a storm that overtook the disciples and Jesus as they went to the other side by water. Jesus was in the boat with them but asleep. By this time, the disciples had seen miracles, signs, and wonders but had not realized they could have halted that storm.   It happens to us, too, all the things God has brought us through, and we hit a new/compounded/lengthy situation that takes our Peace and unknowingly can limit God almighty in the process. Let’s drop anchor when we sense this happening and command the Peace we need for every situation. Jesus the Word made flesh shows us in Mark chapter four how to do it, and the Bible/Word is full of encouraging passages to keep us cool, calm, and collected in spirit, soul, and body.

Prayer

Lord Jesus, thank you for another day; this is the day that you have made, and we are going to rejoice and be glad in it. Thank you for your Peace that surpasses all understanding; thank you for your Peace that is available, and Lord, help us apply it to every situation.

Thank you for your Peace that brings Joy, Wisdom, Happiness, and Blessings. ” But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things! Galatians 5:22-23

God, you are our protection at night and in the day. You are our deliverer. Your Word says, “In peace, I will both lie down and sleep; for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.” Psalm 4:8

Thank you for our Peace of mind. “Thou wilt keep him in perfect Peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.” Isaiah 26:3

We take your Peace that all our needs are met, our bodies are healthy and strong, our finances are in order, and our family members are doing well. Lord, we cast all our care upon you for we know you care for us and what concerns us concerns you. 1 Peter 5:7, Psalms 138:8

Our Lord says, take my Peace you have nothing to fear. John 14:27 “Peace I leave with you; my Peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” Romans 16:20 “The God of Peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.”

Yes, take Peace with you with the tranquility it brings when looking for the correct Godly answers in your personal, professional, and spiritual life. Especially in decisions you must make. “And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:7

Help us to be faithful, fruitful representatives of the Kingdom of God and peacemakers. Philippians 1:6  “And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.” Matthew 5:9, “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.”

Lord Jesus, with every step we take and every move we make, we will take Your Peace with us. Amen! We love you, Lord. Psalm 29:11 says, “The Lord gives strength to his people, and the Lord blesses his people with peace.”

Thank you for your Peace. 💕
