GOD”S PEACE

Philippians 4:7 - And the peace of God which passeth all understanding shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Peace That Passes Understanding

Does the enemy (The Devil) cause you to be all stirred up: feeling anxious and in a frenzy.  Maybe throws you into a tizzy.  When this happens we do things we later regret.  Then we are sorry we let the devil get to us again.

Has this ever happened to you?  We have help in Philippians 4; 7.  Paul writes, “ Then you will God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand.  His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.”

This peace is superior above all other types of peace.  It transcends , outdoes, surpasses, excels, rises above, goes beyond and over the top of any other kind of peace.  You may look elsewhere, but there is no peace like the peace of God. It outshines all other peace causing it to stand in a category by itself.  There is nothing in the world that can compare with the peace of God.

Paul also tells us that this peace surpasses and excels above all understanding.  He tells us that this powerful peace produces in our lives: keeps our hearts and minds, it is a guard to control and monitor etching that tries to enter our hearts, minds, and emotions.  If God’s peace is ruling us, nothing can get past that Divine guard and slip into our hearts and minds without its approval!

This is the good news, we can refuse to allow the devil to access us, throw us into a state of panic and anxiety, or push our buttons any longer.  The devil can not enter our hearts or minds or play with our emotions!

Paul tells us God’s peace is like a band of Roman soldiers that keep dangerous nuisances from entering a city or breaking into special, private places.  God’s peace guards us from, fretfulness, anxiety, worry and all the other things the devil from breaking into our lives.  It protects, guards, keeps and defends us.  Nothing compares to this powerful peace.  God’s disables the devil’s ability to disturb us, or enter our minds and emotions.  In order for God’s peace to be a reality in our life, we let it dominate our hearts, minds, and emotions.
