Many people are looking for peace and security in the things of this world. But truly, nothing in this world can give lasting satisfaction or security. This world does not offer much hope. The key to finding fulfilment in life is to surrender your live to Jesus Christ. To give control of your life to Jesus is to ask Him to lead and guide you everyday. It means to hear His Word and build your life on Bible principles. This is how you can find peace, freedom and fulfilment. Through the precious truth of God’s Word, we have an unfailing hope. A secured life built on the rock of Christ.
In the Bible Jesus says,
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” (Matthew 11:28-29).
When you read the Bible and meditate on the promises of God you will find inner peace and rest over all that concerns you because Christ lives in you to guide, direct and watch over your life.
Speaking the promises of God over your circumstances will change the course of your life for good. The Bible says, “The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.”(Proverbs 18:21). When you speak God’s promises you are speaking the Truth and you are speaking life! You are building your faith muscle to stand strong and overcome!
Use these Bible promises to pray and speak the truth of God’s Word over yourself.
