Topic: Strength to Stay Calm

Highlight:

The Lord is constantly watching everyone, and he gives strength to those who faithfully obey him. But you have done a foolish thing, and your kingdom will never be at peace again.
2 Chronicles 16:9

May we not do a foolish thing in the sight of God in Jesus name. When you forget things you heard and saw God did for you recently and in face of challenges take another route without His approval - Who does that? The Lord says, “If you love me and truly know who I am, I will rescue you and keep you safe. When you are in trouble, call out to me. I will answer and be there to protect and honor you. You will live a long life and see my saving power.”
Psalms 91:14‭-‬16

you should look up to God and you know for sure that when you face any challenges all you need is stay calm because The Lord is constantly watching. He does not sleep not slumber. Those who have done foolish things you may not be at peace again unless they find their way back home like the prodigal son. If you want to be at peace you need to pray for Strength to stay calm until God arise to help. "You of little faith, why are you so afraid?" ... Matthew 8:26... For if the miracles I did for you had been done in wicked Sodom, it would still be here today. Matthew 11:23

It's good to be alert but God knows deep down inside if your intentions are right with him you won't panic - Hey everyone has the fear but Do not think it's what you see in the movies. It's different for those who have strong spirit of God. The wind may tear mountains and break rocks into pieces before the Lord, but the Lord is not in the wind and after the wind an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake and after the earthquake a fire, but the Lord is not in the fire and after the fire a still small voice 1 Kings 19:11-13. It is only those who stay calm that will hear the "still small voice". Not the stormy heart only calmed heart.


Calm heart is like Heaven and Heaven is a place where sorrow never wander, where joy blooms and happiness ponders. If the heaven is truly inside of you then you must be calm. God is powerful and strong enough to fight your battles for you. From now on, receive strength to stay calm. Amen

Prayer: Heavenly father, I confirm that you are God and I would love to have a calm and confident heart. I pray for strength to stay calm always in Jesus name. Amen.

If I could learn this concept, I think I would have better discernment. It is getting easier.

I understand the point you are making here. Of course we can rely on God and the Holy Spirit to sustain us.

But I fear one can take this the wrong way. It is not as though anxiety or fear is removed. It is there. We trust God and the Holy Spirit, and Christ to be with us. We stay our post in the face of fear and anxiety. But it doesn't mean we don't feel it.

God did not spare Jesus Christ from this anxiety and fear. (Luke 22:42-44) "Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me:....And being in agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground." (Matt. 27:46) "And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice....My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"

What I am saying is we stay our post in the face of this fear, anxiety, depression. We experience it but we still trust God. God didn't spare His Son this. Should He spare us this?
