The world is so dark at the moment, so much going on, we can’t even switch on the TV and watch some good news, something to show us that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. It’s all negative and it doesn't seem to be getting any better, but one thing is for sure, even though the world is the way it is, there is a light and a hope, you can find peace within all the chaos. Jesus has said that we will encounter trials and tribulations in this world, but He also said be of good cheer for He has overcome the world (John 16:33), which means He will see us through, victorious, full of joy and peace.
How do you find this peace you may ask? Well, it has all been shown to us in the word of God, the bible.
Start by:
Understanding who Jesus is, the authority that He has. (Matthew 28:18-20)
The role of the Holy Spirit in your life and ask Him to help you understand who you are as a child of God and the authority you have over every situation (Romans 8:14)
Understanding the depth of the love God the Father has for you. (isaiah 54:10)
Ask God the Father to reveal His will to you for your life. Once you understand the plans the Father has for your life, you will begin to realize that your circumstances are only temporary and that there is a bigger picture. This understanding brings peace because you know ultimately His will for your life will prevail. (Jeremiah 29:11)
Understand that you do not wrestle with flesh and blood but the principalities that rule this world, so do not take things at face value. Yes, people make choices that influence our circumstances, but at the end of the day, there is a power behind it all that does not want to see you fulfill God’s will for your life. Knowing this will help you forgive and overcome offense. (Ephesians 6:12)
In a nutshell, the above basically tells us that there is a solution, there is hope in the midst of the chaos and knowing the Lord Jesus Christ will help you get through to the other side and be victorious!
Be blessed…
