If you were to look up the Greek word that’s translated “knowledge” in that scripture, you’d find out that it means more than just a mental understanding of something, more than the kind of knowledge that can be gained through your senses. It means exact knowledge. Knowledge that’s been revealed directly to your heart by the Spirit of God.

Isn’t it exciting to realize that you can hold the thoughts and feelings and purposes of God’s very own heart in your heart? Isn’t it thrilling to know the Creator of heaven and earth wants to be one spirit with you and transmit His thoughts to your mind?

Have you ever thought about David and wondered how a shepherd boy could become a man after God’s own heart? A man so strong in spirit that God chose him to be king of Israel? I have.
In fact, I asked God about it, and He showed me that revelation was what turned David into such a spiritual powerhouse–revelation that came to him through hours of thinking about the things of God. I imagine the day he wrote Psalm 23 he was just sitting and singing praises to God and meditating on His goodness. Just fellowshipping with Him when suddenly the anointing of the Lord came upon him and he said, “The Lord is my Shepherd!”

One day I was walking along a highway through a park praying and I asked a simple question, “Lord, what do You want me to tell Your people?” Without a moment’s hesitation, these words came ringing through my spirit and my mind:
Tell them how much I love them.
They were so filled with love and compassion that it defies words to express it. For days afterward all I could think of was 1 John 4:16. “And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us.”

It is a common belief that trouble (stress, pressure, trials) is just part of life and is unavoidable. But God’s Word reveals something quite the opposite. God is good and because life comes from God life is supposed to be good.
Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. — John 14:27
Jesus said, “I came that they may have and enjoy life and have it in abundance, to the full, till it overflows.” –John 10:10
The simple truth is that trouble, persecution and tribulation is part of the curse – just like sin, sickness, poverty and death. According to Galatians 3:13 we have been redeemed from (no longer subject to) the curse.
It is possible to live free from troubles in our world if we know how to operate in our covenant with God. Jesus offers us His peace and the world offers trouble. Chose peace.
Peace I leave with you; My [own] peace I now give and bequeath to you. Not as the world gives to I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. [Stop allowing yourselves to be agitated and disturbed; and do not permit yourselves to be fearful and intimidated and cowardly and unsettled.] –I John 14:27
Living Trouble Free is not something new, it is something renewed. God has always intended for us to live trouble free – it is now time for us to choose to do so.
