What Is a Prayer for Peace of Mind?
A prayer for peace of mind is grounded in John 14:27, where Jesus says, 'My peace I give to you.' You can ask God for the specific peace that only He provides — one that calms the mind even when circumstances don't change.
What Scripture Says
"Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled; do not be afraid."
John 14:27"May the LORD lift up His countenance toward you and give you peace."
Numbers 6:26"I will lie down and sleep in peace, for You alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety."
Psalm 4:8"You will keep in perfect peace the one whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in You."
Isaiah 26:3Going Deeper
