A Mind Set on God: Peace in Every Storm
Life is filled with storms—unexpected challenges, struggles, and seasons of difficulty. During these times, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed, anxious, and uncertain. Yet, the Bible offers us a powerful promise that can bring peace amidst life’s storms.
In Isaiah 26:3-4 (ESV), God promises: “You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you. Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord God is an everlasting rock.”
This verse assures us that when we set our minds on God, focusing on His truth and His sovereignty, we experience peace that transcends the circumstances around us. It’s not a peace that depends on the absence of storms but a peace that remains steady regardless of the chaos.
When we choose to trust God—placing our thoughts, worries, and fears in His hands—He promises to keep us in perfect peace. This peace is not fleeting or dependent on external factors; it is rooted in the unchanging, everlasting nature of God Himself. No matter the storm, a mind set on God remains calm and secure, knowing that He is our rock.
