How Does One Find Real Peace?
“And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
—Philippians 4:7
Humans are on a never-ending search for peace of mind.
But so many times, they look in the wrong places. Some chase after the false promise of peace through psychiatry and psychology (Searching for Peace of Mind).
In their search for peace of mind, many Americans have placed their faith in drugs–both illicit and over-the-counter (Why are antidepressants the most prescribed drug in the US?).
Some have turned to New Age, cults, Wicca, demonology and other forms of occult “alternate spirituality” in an attempt to stifle their stress and fear (Why was there an explosion of interest in Magick in 1984?).
Even captains of industry are rummaging in the pit of the occult in their pursuit of peace of mind (When CEOs Embrace the Occult).
Where is true peace of mind to be found?
Christians know that answers are to be found in the Bible–and the Bible points them to our Savior, Jesus Christ. In fact, one of Jesus’ titles is the “Prince of Peace.”
At the same time, unbelievers–entrapped in the world’s deception–reject the one source of comfort that could help them find peace of mind. Jesus promised:
“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
—John 14:27
When one has peace, there is no room for fear. When one has the perfect love of Christ, fear has to flee. This is another promise.
“There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.”
—1 John 4:18
“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”
—2 Timothy 1:7
To walk daily in Christ, led by the Spirit, is to walk in peace–for one of the fruits of the Spirit is peace [Galatians 5:22].
” For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.”
—Romans 8:6
God’s Word offers comforting promises to all who place their trust and faith in God and His Son, Jesus Christ.
“The Lord will give strength unto his people; the Lord will bless his people with peace.”
—Psalm 29:11
Finally, there are the words of Jesus Himself, giving to believers what is perhaps the grandest promise of peace.
“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.”
—John 16:33
Hallelujah!
As this fallen world slips further into chaos, turn to the One who can provide the only true measure of peace of mind: Jesus Christ.
End Times Trials, Troubles, Tribulations, Disasters: Put Your Trust in Jesus
Persecution, Tribulation, Troubles, Trials: What the Bible Says to Christians
As the world waxes worse and worse, humanity’s relentless search for peace of mind will grow ever more intense.
Unfortunately, many are deceived and will reject their one hope amidst the troubles to come. Don’t hesitate and don’t wait.
“And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came to earth, was crucified, died and rose again to give humanity hope against sin–and to provide a peace that surpasses all human understanding.
Conquer your fear, doubt and distress. Place your trust in Jesus Christ and start receiving the benefits of peace of mind “through Christ Jesus.”
Begin right now: Place your trust in Jesus.
Not saved? Not sure?
The gospel of Christ has the power to save you!
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
—Romans 1:16
THE GOSPEL
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-4 – (h/t:B)

Unfortunately (or, curiously), I have Christian friends who are caught up in the NAR, Christian Media, Modern Prophecy Industry who, at least in their own minds, declare an outward expression of “joy and peace” in Christ! They treat the “Blood Moons”, “Harbinger”, and “Shemitah” proclamations as the Gospel … but underneath it all, it’s almost like a form of Christian “entertainment” (ex. Sid Roth)!
I’m the one who is branded “negative” and “fearful” for trying to warn them of the “heresies” being propagated now and the “apostasy” to come!
Any comments…?

Tim,
I’m fairly sure Sid Roth is not a Christian.
The Bible tells us those who speak out against deceptions (“Blood Moons”, “Harbinger”, and “Shemitah”) will be condemned (and worse).
All one can do is warn.
Then pray that God open their eyes. Pray that God grant them wisdom. Pray that God grant them mercy. Finally, pray that God’s will be done.
Thanks for the comment.
