The Power of GratitudeНамуна

Gratitude = Peace

Philippians 4: 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and pleading with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. (NASB)

These verses give us amazing insights into receiving and stewarding God's peace. God is so good that He gives us graceful and simple instructions for remaining in His peace.

Three keys:

First- Don’t waste time worrying. Worrying is a form of meditating, but meditating on the plans that the enemy has for you.

Second- Tell God your prayer requests and remain grateful as you do so. God wants to answer your prayers. When we exercise gratitude while making those petitions, He releases a peace that surpasses our ability to understand it.

Third- Practice this as a lifestyle, and you will have access to the Lord’s overwhelming and glorious peace daily.

That’s a pretty simple guide to receiving peace that is out of this world.

Scientific research even indicates that practicing gratitude, such as giving thanks and counting blessings, provides us with a list of healthy benefits:

1- Leads to better sleep

2- Reduces stress levels

3- Improves relationships

and more...

John 14:27 Peace I leave you, My peace I give you; not as the world gives, do I give to you.Do not let your hearts be troubled, nor fearful. (NASB)

Prayer: Lord, teach me to host gratitude and Your peace.
