Word For 3/7/2022

 

Peace: The Bible has a lot to say about peace and most of us think of peace as a time and place where there is no conflict – everything is at peace.

 

“For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder. And His Name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty GOD, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:6

“For He Himself is our Peace, Who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace,” Ephesian 2:14-15

 

JESUS is our Peace, He is The Prince of Peace and He gives us His Peace (John 14:27). So why are so many Christians without Peace? Because we seek something that GOD did not promise – everything is at peace. JESUS said He did not come to bring Peace but a sword (Matthew 10:34-39).

 

We are not commanded to pray for peace from conflict but to pray for Peace in conflict! “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made know to GOD; and The Peace of GOD, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through JESUS CHRIST.” Philippians 4:6-7

 

If we believe The Bible and that we are living in the end times and that soon the anti-christ will rise to rule the earth; then we know that there is not going to be any peace in the earth, there has not been any peace in the earth since Adam sinned in the Garden and was kicked out. There will be conflict until the existing heaven, earth and seas are destroyed and the New heaven, earth and Jerusalem are revealed.

 

True Peace in this life only comes by our personal relationship with GOD through JESUS CHRIST!

Seek GOD First!
