People often say God won\u2019t give us anything we can\u2019t handle. But it\u2019s truer to say He won\u2019t give us anything He<\/i> can\u2019t handle. Do you feel like there is too much to do and not enough of you to do it? Let this Scripture percolate in your mind: \u2018May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.\u2019<\/i> (Romans\u00a015:13\u00a0NIV) <\/p>\n
The way to have peace in the midst of a troubled situation is by staying filled with the power of the Holy Spirit. How do you do that? By developing a spiritual hunger and letting God fill you. He can give you a sense of serenity when you\u2019re surrounded by stress. So, if you\u2019re in over your head today, pray this: \u2018Father, You said no weapon formed against me shall prosper (see\u00a0Isaiah\u00a054:17). I can\u2019t keep the enemy\u2019s weapons from being formed, but I know You will keep them from prevailing against me. You said if I ask anything according to Your will, You will grant my request (see 1\u00a0John\u00a05:14\u201315). You said when I walk in obedience, I will be blessed when I come in, when I go out, when I lie down, and when I get up (see Deuteronomy 28:6; Psalms 1:1;\u00a0\u00a03:5). You told me to turn all my troubles over to You and You will take care of me (see 1\u00a0Peter\u00a05:7). So here they are! Today I\u2019m standing on Your promises. You said it! I believe it! That settles it! Amen.\u2019<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
