"In peace I will lay down and sleep, for you alone O Lord, will keep me safe."
This is one of the exercises of faith: to sleep in peace.
The total confidence in the heavenly bank account.

Security
"You will be secure, because there is hope; you will look about you and take your rest in safety."
Job 11:18
The fullness of faith involves hope. Problems serve as an opportunity for God to show Himself strong in the lives of those who wait on and trust in Him. Those who don't do this suffer with insomnia, fear and nervousness; however, those who are in faith lay down and rest.

Strong Tower
"The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe." Proverbs 18:10
Man understands very well how to build a tower. Thousands of years ago, he already knew how to structure it in such a way that he could take refuge in it.
This comparison of the strong tower is a practical example that helps us understand how safe and strong the Name of our Lord Jesus is.

To Believe
"Now may God, the source of hope, fill you with all joy and peace as you believe, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."
Romans 15:13
When we open our hearts to God's voice, we receive faith; it is like an element of Him, or a tiny ray of His light within us. This is what we call Divine Hope. It is accompanied by peace and joy; a treasure built by the power of the Holy Spirit, in those who surrender and allow themselves to be guided by Him.

Work
"But Jesus answered them: My Father works til now and I work." John 5:17
The whole world can rest on Labour Day.
However, spiritually, we can't afford to waste time, as the devil works to destroy lives tirelessly. We have to be in the fight of faith; watching and praying always.
There is always action at the Throne of God and we are His watchmen.

The Contentious Woman
"It is better to live in a corner of a roof than in a house shared with a contentious woman." Proverbs 21:9
The choice of living far apart has only been better when one has to share a house with a grumpy woman who creates confusion. Having peace in this kind of house is impossible.

Virtuous
"A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that makes ashamed is as rottenness in his bones." Proverbs 12:4
A virtuous woman possesses at least three qualities: faith, hope and love. These qualities are seen by everyone and this makes her husband proud of her. However, a foolish woman is like a jewel in the snout of a pig and she is her husband's shame.
