The storms may be real…but so are the blessings of God!
The battles may be heavy…but His mercy is still present.
The seasons may be hard…but Jesus Christ is still KING of kings and LORD of lords!
Sometimes we think peace means everything around us has to calm down first.
We think we can only be thankful after our prayers are answered, after the doors open, after the pains lift, after the battles end...
But the Word of God says something powerful in Colossians 3:15 KJB:
“And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.”
Let the peace of God rule.
That means peace is not supposed to be temporary or fleeting.
It is supposed to rule there!
Do not let fear, bitterness, anxiety, disappointment, discouragement, the storms, or the enemy reign in your heart!
The peace of God must rule.
And then the verse says, “and be ye thankful.”
Not because everything is perfect, or because every prayer has already been answered.
But because God is still faithful in the storm; for He is faithful who promised!
Gratitude does not deny the battle. It does not pretend the pain is not real. It does not mean you ignore what you are facing.
Gratitude declares that God is GREATER than what you are facing and going through!
Gratitude says, “Lord, I still trust You”, “Lord, I still see Your mercy”, and “Lord, even here, You are worthy”
So if life feels unsettled around you today, do not let it sway you, or rule within you.
Thank God anyway.
Thank Him for His mercy, grace, presence, for carrying you when you did not have the strength to carry yourself.
Thank Him for the peace that can guard your heart even while the battle is still raging.
The storm may be loud, but it is not greater than GOD.
Let God's peace rule your heart.
And remember, He is with you!
