Where do you find your strength?

The nations of the world boast on their military strength. Their military might gives them national confidence and a sure footing among the neighboring nations. Many individuals boast in their weapons, and even how smart they are. But that is limited in nature. There will always be someone mightier and smarter that you. For the believer, their confidence and boast is in the Lord. He is the one who makes us strong. He is the one who miraculously delivers us from the hand of the enemy. He is the one that gives us the victory! I will make my boast in the Lord. I will put my trust in the Lord. Weapons may fail you. Your knowledge may fail you, but God in Christ in never fail you!

Psalm 20:7 (TPT) Some find their strength in their weapons and wisdom, but my miracle deliverance can never be won by men. Our boast is in the Lord our God, who makes us strong and gives us victory!

Are you experiencing “Perfect Peace?”

Peace is not the absence of trouble or turmoil. It is a quiet confidence within you even in the midst of these times of trouble. The Lord Jesus was in a boat with the disciples when all of the sudden, a storm broke out (Mark 4:36-40). the storm got so bad that the disciples thought that they were going to perish. Meanwhile, Jesus was sleeping in the back of the boat. They woke Jesus out of His sleep, and even told Him, “Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?” He rebuked the storm and everything calmed down. Consider this, the disciples thought they were perishing, yet Jesus was sleeping……in the midst of a storm. He had peace even in the midst of a condition where others were in panic and thought they were going to die! Today, God reminds you that He gives us His perfect peace. Do not let your heart be troubled. Even in the midst of a storm, God is there with you and the storm will NOT overtake you! Let Him give you courage and strength today!

John 14:27 (AMP) “Peace I leave with you; My [perfect] peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid. [Let My perfect peace calm you in every circumstance and give you courage and strength for every challenge.]”
