As the month of August comes to an end, today is 8/28. It brings to mind Romans 8:28- a gentle but absolute reminder that ALL things will work for your good!
This is your month of Peace( a state of security and tranquility). It does that not mean that there will not be trouble, noise and chaos around-but rather, we will be so focused, rooted and grounded in God, His Word and His Promises-that what we see, hear and experience WILL NOT move us, cause us to worry or fret, panic, doubt or fear!
On Christ The Solid Rock-The Word of God we will stand in August and every month going forward! We will have unbelievable and undeniable peace that surpasses all human understanding; peace that makes no sense according to Philippians 4:7.
In this month of August( or whatever month you will read this) when we obey and do what is right, our obedience to God will bring and give us peace! Which means disobedience will bring us unrest and turmoil!
Expect the Peace of God that will bring a stillness, quietness and confidence the whole month! This stillness and peace will be the source of renewed strength!
Isaiah 30:15 tells us that in quietness and confidence will be our strength!
*Psalm 4:8 tells us My people( you and I) will live in safety, quietly at home. We will be at rest.
According to this verse, we are to expect :
peace in our physical homes and in our bodies, minds and souls (spiritually).
The protection of God.
Our homes will be the sanctuaries they were intended to be
Many whose homes have felt or been feeling like hell that that will change. Peace will be in our homes and we will live and rest peacefully and safely in our homes.
The verse continues to assure us that *EVEN IF the forest should be destroyed and the city torn down, The Lord will greatly bless His people(us). Wherever they plant seed, bountiful crops will spring up.
So with that promise-let us be very careful of the seeds( words, actions, thoughts) that we sow this month and every month going forward.
*Their cattle and donkeys will graze freely!
So a thousand may fall at our sides and ten thousand at our right sides but no evil will come near us, our homes, our loved ones! Psalm 91:7
EXPECT freedom and all restrictions to be broken from our lives and the lives of our love ones this month.
REST in The Peace of God ( Jesus, The Word of God, His Promises) this month. Yes I know that this phrase rest in peace is often associated with death and often used at funerals-but I dare to debunk that and challenge and encourage us to rest in The Peace of God while we are yet very much still alive and on the land of the living and expect God’s Faithfulness in fulfilling His Promises that will bring about positive and unexpected reversal of difficult circumstances and situations this month!
Amen!
Lets us pray!
Father I thank You for Your Peace, I need Your Peace and so I receive Your Peace in Jesus name I pray and give thanks!
Amen🙏🏾
