Train ourselves to have a QUIET TIME every day. This is a moment where we soothe
multiple kinds of thoughts so we can be directed only to God and His Word, whether it is through prayer, worship and meditating on the Word.

The more trained we are in calming ‘various other thoughts’, the more our spiritual
position will be elevated by God. So basically, quiet moments are very important for us
to live a life that rules and reigns.

In the days ahead there will be many kinds of commotion, ranging from nature,
economic, political, and others. But we as His children no need to be afraid to face them all, because we can walk in the midst of impossibility in calm and peace even in the midst of a storm. That’s what Jesus did!

It is at that time that we ‘become much needed’ by many people to be brought into their
‘boat of life’, because they need the peace and joy that is within us. At that time, we will
give the Word of eternal life to them.

Philippians 2:14-16 TPT Live a cheerful life, without complaining or division among yourselves. For then you will be seen as innocent, faultless, and pure children of God, even though you live in the midst of a brutal and perverse culture. For you will appear among them as shining lights in the universe, offering them the words of eternal life. I haven’t labored among you for nothing, for your lives are the fruit of my ministry and will be my glorious boast at the unveiling of Christ!

I came to understand, it turns out that QUIET TIME IS VERY IMPORTANT. The process of training to soothe the mind will make ourselves able to soothe all the turmoil
around even the nation. God gives us power over it in our quiet time.

I feel in my spirit that the solution to all the commotion that are happening and that will
increasingly intensify has been given by God upon us. It may seem that ‘a very simple
solution to a big problem’, but isn’t that ‘that’ how God works?

Conquering the mighty Goliath didn’t take a huge rock! To subdue the storm, Jesus only
needed to get into the boat and the storm calmed down. Other moments, He just
needed to declare! I am sure as sure as possible : WE WILL CONQUER THE WORLD!!
My part right now is to continue practicing my quiet time every morning until there is
calmness, where my thoughts are directed only on God and His Word! This is the
moment the King of Peace reigns in my life!

Philippians 4:7-8 (NIV) And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

Roma 16:20 (TSI3) : God, who has always kept us to live peacefully, will soon crush
Satanas and conquer him under our power. My prayers, our Ruler Jesus is always kind
to you.

Colossians 3:15 (NIV) : Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of
one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.

1 John 5:3-4 (NIV) In fact, this is love for God: to keep his commands. And his commands are not burdensome, for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.#ILoveGod
