Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of righteousness. Isaiah 41:10 THE PEACE OF GOD Everyone who knows the Lord Jesus Christ can go through any problem, and face death, and still have the peace of God in his heart. When your spouse dies, or your children get sick, or you lose your job, you can have peace that you dont understand. You may have tears at a graveside, but you can have an abiding peace, a quietness. A psychiatrist was quoted in the newspaper as saying that he could not improve upon the Pauls prescription for human worry. Paul said, Be anxious for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension shall guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:6-7 NASB). Be anxious for nothing. How many times do you and I fret and turn, looking for a little peace? Gods peace can be in our hearts---right now. Colossians 3:15 says, Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts. Some of you believe that you know Jesus Christ as your Savior, but you havent really made Him your Lord. Youre missing the peace of God in your struggles and turmoils and trials and pressures of life. Is the peace of God in your hearts? We are all familiar with the transformation that took place in Saul on the road to Damascus, when Christ entered his heart and changed him from one of His most destructive enemies to one of His mightiest advocates. Many equally dramatic changes in human personalities are taking place today, and they are being brought about by the selfsame means that transformed Saul into paul---birth again through Jesus Christ! There is no human philosophy that can achieve such changes or provide such strength. This mighty strength stands ready to be available at your beck and call at all times. No man can bring peace to a troubled world because it is not his to give. Christ said, My peace I give unto you. It is not the peace of man, but the peace of God. We cannot give what does not belong to us. Ask for Gods peace and see what a transformation will take place in your life.-----Billy Graham
