” The Lord Himself will fight for you. Just stay calm.” Exodus 14:14 NLT
For you shall not go out with haste, Nor go by flight; For the Lord will go before you, And the God of Israel will be your rear guard. Isaiah 52:12 NKJV
Therefore thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I lay in Zion a stone for a foundation, A tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; Whoever believes will not act hastily.” Isaiah 28:16 NKJV
God’s peace and calmness is a mark of our walk when the Holy Spirit is in control of us–sanctifying our thoughts, guiding our steps, directing our decisions, prompting us to move at the right time, and assuring us that He goes before us and takes care of all that is behind.

Holy Spirit, Peace divine!
Still this restless heart of mine,
Speak to calm this tossing sea,
Stayed in thy tranquility.
-S. Longfellow
