Kept In Perfect Peace

Send us Fan Mail"You now have the proper tools to step into the fight and to stand your ground. There will be days when you'll get it right. When you'll trust in your identity as a loved son or daughter of God and when you practice gratitude--taking captive the lies of worry and replacing those thoughts with ones that are pure and lovely. And there will be days you'll feel like you're outnumbered or like you've made no progress in your mission.""Given the length of this fight and the likelihood of the highs and lows, I want to encourage you to focus both on the micro and the macro picture."Micro This is your today. Right now, in this moment, maybe this hour."How can you win the next fight in front of you?""How can I take captive this thought? How can I replace this worry?"Don't look ahead. Don't look side to side. Look up.Fix your eyes on Jesus. Win this fight. Take this step. Claim this ground. Focus on the small picture.Macro"The war is already over. Jesus has already conquered sin, death, hell, and the grave."Remember Fear Operating System?It begins with fear, but remember that Jesus has already defeated fear once and for all."It might still prowl around and act like a big, tough lion, but it's hollow. Its fangs aren't lethal and its sting is gone."“The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, 'Abba, Father.'” Romans‬ ‭8‬:‭15‬ ‭NIV‬‬"For those who have put their faith in Jesus, we no longer need to fall back into fear. We are no longer bound by the ways of this world or the workings of the Enemy. We are freed. And more than that, we're placed into a new family-one where we can, with intimacy, call upon our Father and He will answer.""No matter what today holds, we can stand assured that on that final day, we will win the war on worry once and for all.""The macro picture of assurance fuels our micro picture of launching our assault on worry.""...freedom, hope, joy, peace, and refuge are not only available, but they are also our inheritance."A Step Towards Freedom"Jesus has given you all you need for life and godliness(2 Peter 1:3). He has already won the war on worry, defeating death, hell, and the grave once and for all.""As you go from here and venture into your day-to-day, keep these things in mind: Worry is a lie from the Enemy. We can't necessarily stop him from talking, but we can choose who we listen to: the Enemy or our heavenly Father."Remember "Fear can lead to our desire to control, which fuels worry. But God's perfect love drives out fear. When we embrace His love, we move toward surrender and a life characterized by trust.""As we finish, remember that the peace of God-the one that Paul said surpasses all understanding will guard your heart and your mind (Philippians 4:7). God is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you to Flimself blameless and pure (Ephesians 5:27). You are a loved son or a loved daughter of the King of the universe."🔗 CONNECT✉️ Subscribe to the newsletter💼
