Peace

Nobody is born worried; you have to practice.

Where God is, peace follows. In the eleventh chapter of Exodus the final plague is delivered upon the Egyptians; the death of every firstborn.

Exodus 11:6
Then a loud wail will be heard throughout the land of Egypt; there has never been such wailing before, and there never will be again.

Anf yet in the midst of the horror and grief listen to what God says about those on whom His favor rests:

Exodus 11:7
But among the Israelites it will be so peaceful that not even a dog will bark.

What are you afraid of today? What worries you? Do you believe that God's favor rests upon you?

Philippians 4:6-7
Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. If you do this, you will experience God's peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
