If I want God's presence, I have to respond to Him. If I want stress and anxiety, I merely need to react to circumstance, and situations and people.
Response to the Lord, to the Holy Spirit, creates confidence and trust in Him. Reaction outside of Christ creates separation, doubt, and stress. He has taught me that I need to lean into the presence of God, rather than into situational circumstance.
What does that mean for the things I face and encounter everyday? Jesus is the “stance” in my circumstance. I know that it's impossible to be in a situation that God hasn't already planned for.
When you abide in Christ and are in alignment with the Holy Spirit, the Kingdom of Heaven becomes more powerful to you than the world around you. You learn to see every life situation from God's perspective. It’s a very peaceful place to be.
The fact is, Kingdom peace cannot be understood in human logic. You can’t work it out in your head or strive towards it, it can only be received. Peace is not the absence of adverse circumstances or conflict. It is the presence of Christ, the very Prince of Peace.
Peace is a relational practice not a situational outcome. It’s the state of being at divine rest and undisturbed. It is the lifestyle of being ever present with Jesus. He is our peace.
Ask to receive Christ’s peace today, then go and share it with someone else. The peace that Jesus gives is far more viral than you might ever imagine.
