Waar staan we onszelf toe om over na te denken? Paulus herinnert ons in Filippenzen 4:6-7 eraan: &quot;Wees niet bezorgd over iets, maar laat in alles door gebed en smeekbede, met dankzegging, uw verzoeken aan God bekend worden; en de vrede van God, die alle begrip te boven gaat, zal uw harten en gedachten bewaren in Christus Jezus.&quot; Maar dan zegt hij verder: &quot;Ten slotte, broeders, al wat waar is, al wat edel is, al wat rechtvaardig is, al wat rein is, al wat lieflijk is, al wat een goede naam heeft, als er enige deugd is en als er iets prijzenswaardigs is, overdenk dat&quot; (Fil. 4:8).<\/p><p>Waar besteden we onze tijd aan? Sommigen van ons herhalen angstige gedachten steeds opnieuw in ons hoofd en denken aan het ergste scenario. Het vers van vandaag herinnert ons eraan onze gedachten op de Heer te richten, niet op onze situaties of omstandigheden. David kon zeggen: &quot;Ik zocht de HEER, en Hij antwoordde mij; Hij verloste mij van al mijn angsten&quot; (Psalm 34:4). De sleutel voor ons is om de Heer te zoeken en onze gedachten op Hem gericht te houden!<\/p><p>Dit is het belang van de helm van de redding in onze geestelijke strijd (Efezi\u00ebrs 6:17): hij beschermt onze gedachten en ons denken. In 1 Thessalonicenzen 5:8 wordt hij de helm van de hoop genoemd. Satan weet dat hij onze hoop kan ondermijnen door onze gedachten van de Heer af te leiden en te richten op de zorgen en problemen van deze wereld. Deze dingen zijn belangrijk, en we moeten doen wat nodig is om onze verantwoordelijkheden na te komen, terwijl we tegelijkertijd onze zorgen aan de Heer toevertrouwen (1 Petrus 5:7).<\/p><p>De Heer herinnert ons in Jesaja 41:10 eraan: &quot;Wees niet bevreesd, want Ik ben met u; wees niet ontmoedigd, want Ik ben uw God. Ik zal u sterken, ja, Ik zal u helpen, Ik zal u ondersteunen met Mijn rechtvaardige rechterhand.&quot; Ga er eens rustig voor zitten en lees Jesaja 41-46. Zeven keer lezen we: &quot;Wees niet bevreesd!&quot; Onze God is groter dan al onze angsten, en Hij is een God die altijd aanwezig is!<\/p><p>De dichter Henry Ward Beecher schreef: &quot;Elke toekomst heeft twee handvatten. We kunnen hem vastpakken met het handvat van angst of met het handvat van geloof.&quot;\u201c<\/p><p><strong>Ankerpunt voor vandaag:<\/strong><br \/>Geniet van Gods vrede door je gedachten op Hem te richten!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Peace Of Mind \u201cYou will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.\u201dIsaiah 26:3 Another way we break the chains of worry, anxiety, and fear is to guard our thoughts.
