Stressometer

April 8, 2026 | David Jeremiah

And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled.
Matthew 24:6

Do you have a device that monitors your heart rhythm, sleep patterns, daily steps, oxygen levels, and body temperature? What if you had a stressometer that could measure your anxiety levels right now? Are you calm, nervous, frightened, worried, or afraid of the future? Most of our fears have to do with the future, and we find ourselves afraid of what might happen to our loved ones or to us.

Psalm 46

In His sermon about the Last Days, Jesus made two seemingly contradictory statements: The world will be filled with war; we are to be filled with peace. See that you are not troubled.

How do we do that? By trusting Him with the future. We may not know all that is to come, but we do know that whatever happens Jesus is on His throne and in control. The throne of heaven governs the affairs of earth and the pathway of God’s children. So don’t be troubled. Ask Him today to give you the courage to trust Him.

To say that God is sovereign is to declare that He is the almighty and the owner of all power in heaven and earth. No one can defeat His plans, prevent His purposes, or resist His will.
