At Ease

You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you. Isaiah 26:3

This is a command in the military after you have stood at attention the commander or sergeant will shout “At ease” and you as a soldier comply. 

Oh how nice it would be in regular day to day civilian life to just be at ease. No fretting over business that is not any of your business. No worrying over the future. No trying to be ‘Holy Spirit junior’ in the life of your adult children. No fear of the nightly news media mongers. Just a sense of being at ease. 

This state of mind can be accomplished and is within everyone’s reach. You have to purpose in your heart, or in other words, set your mind on the fact that you will no ‘go there’ to places that bring on fear, meddling, and the like. As the sports maker Nike says “Just do it” and do it you can if you want to. Oh yes Satan will try to get you frazzled and attempt to steal your peace but you don’t have to let him so don’t. Stay on prayer and focus on the word. Ask God to help. He can and will. 

PRAYER: As the song 'Day by Day' says to "follow thee more clearly", that is what will happen when I remove the clutter from my thoughts and stay peaceful. I thank you ahead of time for the victory I can and WILL have in this area. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
