Make Decisions With Faith And Confidenceตัวอย่าง

How To Let Peace Rule The good news is that you and I already have peace – Jesus gave us His peace! In John 14:27 He said, “ Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” We don’t have to be afraid when we’re making decisions, and we can let peace rule instead of feeling pressured, unsure, or stressed. So, how do we “let peace rule” when making decisions? To me, it’s a three-fold concept. First , it means that decisions should be made from a position of peace, not agitation. It’s almost impossible to hear from God or get the witness of the Holy Spirit when you’re upset, angry, worried, or agitated. Work to get your heart and mind quiet, perhaps by reading the Word or praying in the spirit, so you can clearly hear from God. Second , letting peace rule means that when you try on a decision you feel the peace of God in your spirit (that smooth, velvety feeling) and you go with it. Don’t stop praying about something or move on something until you feel that peace in your spirit. Third , peace keeps you in a place of faith once you’ve made your decision. As you watch your decision unfold, peace keeps you from second-guessing yourself or changing your mind every other minute. Peace keeps you on track. It keeps you from fretting about decisions you’ve made. Philippians 4:6-7 tells us: Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. God’s peace comes when you pray and refuse to be anxious. That peace will guard your heart and mind so you can keep it throughout the decision-making process and even after you’ve made your decision.
