“Be
careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with
thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God,
which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through
Christ Jesus” (Phil 4:6-7; KJV).
We
all get to worrying from time to time, but the apostle Paul tells us we don’t
need to. He tells us to let our heavenly Father know our needs and requests,
trust him and thank him for the answers. We need to allow God’s peace to
overwhelm us and keep us through Christ Jesus.
In
1 Peter, chapter 5 and verses 6 and 7 we read: “Humble yourselves therefore
under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all
your care upon him; for he careth for you” (KJV). If we approach our God humbly,
we are told we can cast our cares on him and he will take care of them. Jesus not only bore our sicknesses and
carried our pains but he was scourged that we could have peace (Isa 53:4-5).
The
definition of the word salvation in the Greek contains; forgiveness,
deliverance, rescue, liberation, release, restoration, safety, healing,
prosperity, preservation, soundness, happiness and general well-being. What’s left to worry about? Give it all to Jesus today and enjoy his
peace of mind.
