How to Get Peace of Mind
If you have been asking "How do I get peace of mind?", know that it is possible by following these steps:


Come to Jesus
The first thing you have to do if you want peace of mind is to accept Jesus’ invitation for He asks all who are overburdened to come to Him and He will give them peace of mind and refreshment for their souls. (Matthew 11:28-30) 

So come to Jesus today since all you have to do is to say with your mouth that "Jesus is Lord" and then believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead and you will be saved. (Romans 10:9)

Read Your Bible
The second thing you need to do to alleviate mental distress and attain peace of mind is to take up His yoke or the instructions for living that He sets for us. These instructions are written in the Word of God so read your Bible every day for all Scripture originates from God to guide us, warn us and correct us. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)

As you read your Bible, pray for your eyes to be opened with understanding so that you may be able to discern its truths and its message. Understand also that just reading the Word or listening to it being preached is not enough, you also have to be a doer of the Word for mere hearers deceive themselves. (James 1:22)

Follow Jesus
The third thing you need to do to get peace of mind even in the middle of a stressful situation is to learn from Jesus and live as He did. 

Therefore, stop being a proud abrasive and become gentle and humble. Drop the heavy yoke of trying to live up to the world’s a million and one ever-changing expectations and put on the simple yoke one of living only to please Jesus and you will find the peaceful rest that the world cannot give you.

Cast Your Cares
The fourth thing you can do to increase your peace of mind is to cast your cares on God because He cares for you. (1 Peter 5:7)

Therefore write down all the problems that are disturbing you mentally and pray to ask God to solve them for you.

As you wait for His solutions, decide that you will not think about those problems. When those burdens that you cannot solve by yourself enter your mind, remind yourself that you have given them to the Lord in prayer.

Trust God
The fifth thing you can do to increase your peace of mind is to trust God even more.

Therefore decide to trust that He has good plans for your life because He says, I know the thoughts that I think towards you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, thoughts to give you a future and hope. (Jeremiah 29:11) 

When you are feeling threatened because of your problems, trust God even more by reminding yourself that He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him. (Proverbs 30:5)


How to trust God completely


Meditate on God's Word
The sixth thing you should do to get peace of mind is to meditate on Scripture for He says, "You will keep in perfect peace the person whose mind is stayed on you because He trusts in You." (Isaiah 26:3)


Therefore if you want to have perfect peace of mind keep your mind focused on God and one of the best ways of doing that is to meditate on His word.

Do Your Best

  6. I love reading my Bible when I need to find peace of mind. I have found sometimes even praying doesn't bring peace because my worry and anxiety cuts in on my prayers, causing me to have trouble concentrating. But when I'm reading Scripture, God's peace always sweeps over me.
