Stay calm
Psalm 46:10
Be still and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth
The verse above says “Be Still” that is stop striving or stop fighting, relax for God is in control.
As humans we find it very difficult to sit and watch something deteriorate or get out of hand.
We want to try and make things right. But God says, leave it to me, I know the best thing to do because I know your past and your future. ( Revelations 1:8)
No matter how uncomfortable you are, stay calm, and relax, pray and trust God to make a way.
Philippians 4:6-7
Have no anxiety about anything but in everything by prayer and supplication with Thanksgiving, let your requests be made known onto God. And the peace of God which passes all understanding will keep your hearts and mind in Christ Jesus
This verse from the new testament also repeats that we should be still ( have no anxiety about anything)
Instead pray, present your request to God and almost immediately start thanking Him for the victory and He will give you peace.
God be with you
How can I apply the word to my life?
1. Learn to commit everything to God in prayer and stay calm.
Prayer
Let this hymn be your prayer
Peace, perfect peace
In this dark world of sin
The blood of Jesus whispers peace within.
Amen
