The Song of Peace: The Peace that Surpasses All Understanding 3-Day Devotional

Scripture: Philippians 4:6-7 – “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

Song Verse:
“Mild He lays His glory by,
Born that man no more may die;
Born to raise the sons of earth,
Born to give them second birth.”

Devotional Thought:
Inner peace comes when we surrender our anxieties to God. Jesus, who humbled Himself by laying aside His glory to bring us eternal life, shows us the path to true peace. Just as He gave up everything for us, we are invited to release our worries into His capable hands. When we bring our concerns to Him in prayer and thanksgiving, we open our hearts to the peace that only He can provide.

Application:
1.Turn Anxiety into Prayer: Every time a worry arises, speak it aloud to God, asking for His help and guidance.
2.Practice Gratitude: Write down three things you are thankful for each day to shift your focus from worry to God’s faithfulness.
3.Rely on God’s Promises: Meditate on verses like Philippians 4:6-7 to remind yourself of God’s power and care.

Reflection Question: What specific worries or fears can you bring to God in prayer today to experience His peace?

Prayer: Lord, I release my anxieties to You. Fill my heart with Your peace and remind me of Your promises when worry arises. Amen.
