When the king announced that all his subjects were to pray only to him, Daniel went to his room, opened his window, and prayed with supplication and thanksgiving to the God of Israel. In perfect peace He spent the night with locked-jawed lions while the king tossed and turned in his bed.
Isaiah 26:3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.
Perfect peace involves praying with the heart and a right mind. Wrong thinking leads to wrong feeling and soon the heart and mind are far apart and we become worried. Though they can’t be seen, thoughts are powerful.
• Sow a thought, reap an action
• Sow an action, reap a habit
• Sow a habit, reap a character
• Sow a character, reap a destiny.
Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
