philippians 4 6 7

I'm always interested in the searches being done on the Internet, and one of the ways I monitor this is with Google Hot Trends.

Today, in between all the Halloween stuff, I found a high-ranked search term for "philippians 4 6 7".

Presumably this is for Philippians 4:6-7, which states:

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

This is a great promise from God. It assures us that, as believers in the Lord Jesus, we will receive the peace that can only come from Him if we are seeking Him in prayer.

It's a great promise because we can have that peace even in the face of turmoil, even in the midst of strife!

Our God will truly supply our needs from the storehouse of His riches. He is the provider of all good things.

His love provides the forgiveness that allows us to be confident in our right standing before His throne. We don't have to fear the just wrath of God. We don't have to fear any penalty for our sins. Praise God He has provided the Way for us to be seen as beloved children of the Most High.

If you've not yet trusted Christ with your life, your sins, your accomplishments, and your soul, I invite you to do so now. He warns that there is yet another day, for TODAY is the day of redemption, as long as there are days, but we don't know when the Judgement Day will start. So get right with Him through what His Son has done for you, not what you have done, for all our works are as sinking sand!

By the way, here is a great site where you can search the Bible by verse, chapter, book, or topic:
