Perfect Peace Isa 26:3 #Nightlight #RTTBROS
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee." Isaiah 26:3 (KJV)
Life pulls us in many directions. Between work, family, and other responsibilities, our minds get cluttered with anxious thoughts. But Isaiah promises that when we keep our minds fixed on God, He will give us perfect peace.
A busy college student named James felt overwhelmed with papers, exams, and extracurriculars. He was stretched thin and anxious. Over winter break, James committed to starting each morning in Scripture and prayer. As he focused his mind on God's Word, James felt calm and confident even amidst the pressures of school. Staying his mind on Christ brought deep peace
Like James, I know what it's like to have a cluttered mind. When I start my day reading Scripture, I am reminded of God's presence and power. Fixing my thoughts on Him fills me with calm assurance for the day ahead. But if I neglect time in the Word, fretful thoughts quickly creep in. Just as Isaiah said, I experience God's perfect peace when my mind is stayed on Him.
No matter what demands we face, Jesus offers rest for our souls. By training our minds to focus on God's truth, we can rise above the noise and distractions of life. setting aside quiet time to fix our minds on the Lord allows His peace to rule in our hearts. May we, like the psalmist, declare: "7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise!" (Psalm 57:7) As we keep our minds stayed on God, He will keep us in perfect peace.
