Lacking in Peace?
Romans: 3:17 They( people under the power of sin) don’t know where to find peace.
***Sin crushes the life out of us!!!!
We couldn’t pay the price for our sins but God, being the merciful God he is, has already paid our ransom for sin by sacrificing his only begotten son, Jesus.
Whenever our PEACE is upset over events and circumstances in life, we have moved past emotions into sin.
Sin says that circumstances of life now dictate anxiety, worry, fear, or anger.
John 14:18 “I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.
27 “Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful.
I believe Christ teaches us to grab” Life” by the THROAT:
*not to count the ODDS
*not to Count our WEAKNESSES
*not to Count our PAST
*not to dwell on our SINS
BUT to develop lives that TRUST HIM!
Now that is what the world needs to see and hear from our Characters!!!!!
Verse 26 “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you.
PEACE to you Brothers and Sisters!!! ALL Life is in God’s hands and in this dark time in History People(starting with leaders) need Peace of Heart, Mind and Soul!!! Let their Character’s be built on the promises of God!!!!! That ALL may HEAR His VOICE!
3 Reasons to trust God so you can have PERFECT PEACE!
1.) Jesus is able
2.) Jesus cares
3.) Jesus saves & delivers
It’s because Jesus is able and He cares is the reason why he saves and delivers us from our problems, demons and worries.
We can’t—We can’t handle all of our problems that’s why we should leave our problems with Jesus because he can handle them all.
*Read Romans 5:1-5.
What more peace can there be than an everlasting, spiritual peace through Jesus Christ?
*In Christ, the lion lays down with the lamb.
* In Christ, all our spiritual diseases have been healed.
*In Christ there is no more sorrow or no more tears. Isaiah 53:4-5, Psalm 103:2-5
*God does not abandon.
*God does not leave you on your darkest hour, pleading for Him to step into your situation.
* God is not a dead God;
The Body of Christ needs to realize this because it’s time to: Awaken!
* Open your heart and eyes to see all God wants for you is FREEDOM.
The ones who walk in righteousness and purity. They are the ones who love God with all their heart. They threw away the flesh and let God become their God.
Hebrews 4:16 (NIV) – “Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.”
REJOICE! Today was YOUR DAY to eat the MEAT of the Word, God has predestined you to find these truths TODAY and He now considers you MATURE in Him if you receive them.
The Word of God defines it’s MEAT as BEING the doctrine of justification, or as the NIV puts it: the teaching of righteousness (right standing with God). This MEAT will make you strong, and Neh. 8:10 declares that the JOY of the Lord is your strength (so therefore, this meaty teaching on how you are justified and considered not guilty of sin makes you HAPPY!).
KNOW that you HAVE BEEN saved, sealed, adopted, sanctified, made holy, and perfected FOREVER!
Dear Lord, you are my shield and you are my protection. I know and believe
Lord that you will take care of me and I know that I don’t have to look to anyone.
I will not depend on myself,
I will not depend on the arms of flesh, BUT I will put and place all of my hope, all of my trust in You Lord. I will truly walk by faith trusting and believing in only you Father.
Teach me your ways Lord, teach me your laws. Show me how to walk right before you, cause me to live holy. I want to live a life that is completely pleasing in your eye sight Father. I want you to look at me Lord and say “there is my child in whom I am well pleased” I want to be pleasing to you Lord. Help me Jesus. Lord I love you I will live in confidence in you. Thank you for Your Promise this Day: “”Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful”. In Jesus name I pray. Amen
* Greet each other with Christian love.
Peace be with all of you who are in Christ. 1 Peter 5:14
