Peace for Your Anxious Mind
Why do we see “peace” everywhere but don’t feel peace in our hearts?
sar shalom: prince of peace
· sar: the one in charge, the lord, the chief, the general
· shalom: rest, tranquility, wholeness, fullness of peace
· sar: the one in charge, the lord, the chief, the general
· shalom: rest, tranquility, wholeness, fullness of peace
The Prince of Peace Gives Us ...
· Peace With God
· The Peace of God
· Peace With God
· The Peace of God
Hebraic doubling: a linguistic technique in the Hebrew Bible in which a word is repeated to convey an intensified meaning
shalom shalom: a perfect and unbroken peace; complete well-being, both inward and outward
Peace isn’t found in the absence of problems.
Peace is found in the presence of God.
Peace is found in the presence of God.
samak: to lean on completely, to fully rest oneself
The peace of God is found in surrender, not control.
Almost every time you’re worried or afraid …
· You’re overestimating your ability to control.
· You’re underestimating the goodness of God.
· You’re overestimating your ability to control.
· You’re underestimating the goodness of God.
Are you trying to control something that’s not yours to control?
Just as Jesus gives us peace to comfort us, He can withdraw it to refine us.
DO YOU NEED PRAYER?
...The things which are impossible with men are possible with God. Luke 18:27 We would love an opportunity to pray for you. Please click on the link below and submit your prayer request.
http://www.pclifecenter.com/prayerTalk it over
Read John 14:27 and Philippians 4:6-7. How is Jesus’ peace different from the peace of the world? How can His peace impact the way you respond to hardships and trials?
Share about a time when you felt God’s peace despite having problems or difficulties. What did you learn about God through that experience?
Talk about an area of your life that’s missing peace. Are you trying to control something that’s not yours to control? How can you surrender that to God?
