In today's episode, we're going to talk about Apostle Paul, who encourages us in Philippians 4:6 not to be anxious about anything. We're going to break down this verse, and then we're also going to talk about how the peace of God that surpasses all understanding guards our hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Let's break down this verse. Paul tells us to be anxious for nothing, but rather to make our requests known to God through prayer and supplication with thanksgiving. Paul is telling us to trust God, no matter what our circumstances are, whether we're believing God to answer our prayers for ourselves or others. We know that God's peace is with us and will help us through every situation if we keep our minds stayed on Him. While guarding our hearts and minds, meaning not letting our emotions or inner self be influenced negatively, causing us to doubt what we're asking God for.

Here are some scriptures to reference:
"Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all." 2 Thessalonians 3:16 ESV

"Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it." Proverbs 4:23 ESV

God's peace, is described as a profound sense of inner tranquility, wholeness, and security that surpasses human understanding. Trust God, having confidence in Him, a relationship with God, knowing God's character and being in His presence is what we all need during these hard times.

So even in these hard times that we're all dealing with, there's so much going on in the world- the protests, personal issues, family issues. We have friends who are dealing with sickness in their bodies, but here is Paul telling us to be anxious for nothing, meaning we will face trying times but not to worry about our circumstances, but to trust God, give God thanks, and know that He is in control, no matter what we face. So my question to you is, what does God's peace look like to you?
