"And God's peace [shall be yours, that tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and being content with its earthly lot of whatever sort that is, that peace] which transcends all understanding shall garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:7 AMPC)
There is a peace that passeth all understanding. It encapsulate the heart that has been forgiven of God. It is a state of tranquility emanating from the truth that the wall of separation between you and God has been broken down. If you reject this peace, there will always be a void in your life. This void will keep you in a perpetual state of dissatisfaction. Nothing in the world can successfully fill that void except God Himself. He created us because of relationship with Him.
If you are pursuing anything else outside God, you are a wicked fellow who is using God's resources for a selfish reason. On the last day, you shall be held accountable for this gross misbehaviour. There is no excuse for rejecting the peace God offered through Christ Jesus.
On the other hand, if you have given your life to Jesus and you still feel a void and an emptiness in your heart.
"“Who among you fears the Lord? Who obeys the voice of His Servant? Who walks in darkness And has no light? Let him trust in the name of the Lord And rely upon his God." (Isaiah 50:10 NKJV)
The battle will not be long for you, keep trusting in the Lord, your God. Also rely on Him to turn His light towards you. He will soon fill the void in your life with His personality.
ACTION PLAN: Have you rejected God's Prince of peace? Today is the day salvation for you, turn away from your wickedness and be saved.
PRAYER: Father, I am sorry for trying to occupy your space in my heart with many useless things that cannot satisfy. Forgive me and take your rightful place therein. Amen.
