Week 3: The Effects of Prayer

Prayer Brings Peace

Can you imagine a life without worry and anxiety filled with Perfect Peace of mind? It is impossible apart from God; with God, however, it’s possible! Philippians 4 says Peace will guard our hearts and minds.

Peace is supernatural and only results from spending time in relationship with God. When we are in the constant conversation of Prayer, the moment we are presented with an opportunity to worry, we immediately give that request to God and thank Him for handling it all. When we do that and truly believe, that is when we learn to walk in that Perfect Peace.

Scripture says that when we bring our worries to God, we are to thank Him for His Ever-Present Love and present what we need. If we follow this strategy, God will guard our hearts against the evil one.

Action Step: Make a list of your worries. Thank God for who He is and all He has done. Then, give all your concerns to God through Prayer. If Satan tries to bring those worries back, remember that Jesus is handling them now, and you are filled with Peace!
