And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”Philippians 4:7
Paul wanted the church at Philippi to see that the authority of God reigns above the chaos of this world.
You don’t have to look hard today to know that things aren’t as they are supposed to be. From natural disasters to humanitarian crises, to wars and oppression, things are broken. But thanks be to God that peace beyond understanding is available for every Jesus follower around the world.
How does that peace come? Often through disciplines like fasting and prayer - through intentional dependency and focused faithfulness. In your fasting today, ask that God would empower His people all over the world. Ask Him to give abundant peace and comfort regardless of the circumstances they find themselves in.
Reflect + Apply:
We won’t escape conflict until Jesus comes again. But God has invited us to find our source of peace in Him, and to petition Him on behalf of others. Write out 2-3 prayers for believers around the world.
