<Yesterday    Tomorrow>

Today God says:
 "I will keep you in perfect peace if you trust Me and keep your mind focused on Me".

He promises me:
  "You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on you; because he trusts in you". (Isa. 26:3)

My response to the word:
  God is keeping me in perfect peace because I fully trust in Him, and I keep my mind on Him. "For He is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of partition between us". Jesus Christ is the Prince of peace, and I want to walk in His peace throughout this day.

My prayer:
  Heavenly Father, I choose the peace you offer instead of the restlessness of the world. Help me to stay focused on you throughout this day.

Today's scriptures:
 "He will be named: Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace". (Isa 9:6 GW) "So He is our peace". (Eph. 2:14 GW) "Peace be to all of you who are in Christ Jesus ". (1 Peter 5:14 GW)  

Quote for today:
God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing. (C S Lewis)
