"....I have still and quiet my soul( Psalm 131:2 NIV).
THE SECRET TO HAVING A PEACE OF MIND
One of the greatest stress inducers we face daily is noise. We live in a noisy world. To enjoy a more peaceful atmosphere we must create one! So find a place where you will not be interrupted and learn to enjoy simply been quiet for a while. If you are a high-energy, time conscious, result oriented individual with too much to do and not enough time to do it, you will discover this is not easy. And before you start thinking, this is not very spiritual take a moment and consider these scriptures:
1) "The fruit of righteousness will be peace; the effect of righteousness will be quietness and confidence forever'(Isaiah32:17).
2) "Better one handful with tranquility than two handfuls with toil and chasing after the wind" (Ecclesiastes 4:6)
3) "Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business"(1Thess 4:11).
4)"Be still and know that I am God...(Psalm 46:10). You can't live a continually noisy life and expect to walk in peace.
Jesus made sure He had seasons of peace and time alone. Nobody had a greater life's purpose or incessant demand placed upon Him than He did. Yet the Bible says, He...often withdrew to lonely places and prayed. Surely if Jesus needed this type of lifestyle, you do too. Spending quality time with God is essential to restoring your body, your mind and your emotions. The truth, you need it regularly, so insist on having it, dont let anyone take it from you. Work your schedule around God, don't try to work God in around your schedule.
Prayer Point
Father, I pray that you make your peace my borders and take away every spirit of antagonist working against my peace. Thank you for giving me your peace
