Possessed by Peace John 14:27; Luke 24:36-43; Isaiah 26:3-4
Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Your heart must not be troubled or fearful." John 14:27 HCSB
Let your graciousness be known to everyone. The Lord is near. Don t worry about anything, but in everything, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses every thought, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:5 7 HCSB
The truth is I make poor decisions out of disobedience and distrust of the Lord. I don t believe He has everything right.
Do we refuse to believe that anything good can come from ourselves dying on the Cross?
And as they were saying these things, He Himself stood among them. He said to them, Peace to you! But they were startled and terrified and thought they were seeing a ghost. Why are you troubled? He asked them. And why do doubts arise in your hearts? Look at My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself! Luke 24:36 43 HCSB
Touch Me and see, because a ghost does not have flesh and bones as you can see I have. Having said this, He showed them His hands and feet. But while they still were amazed and unbelieving because of their joy, He asked them, Do you have anything here to eat? So they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish, and He took it and ate in their presence. Luke 24:36 43 HCSB
Has there been good that has come when we have found ourselves on a cross God has placed us on?
Then He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, be killed, and rise after three days. He was openly talking about this. So Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him. Mark 8:31 33 HCSB
But turning around and looking at His disciples, He rebuked Peter and said, Get behind Me, Satan, because you re not thinking about God s concerns, but man s! Mark 8:31 33 HCSB
Is there more concern in my life with what I am going to do, rather than what God is up to or going to do?
You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you. Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord God is an everlasting rock. Isaiah 26:3 4 ESV
Dominion and fear are with God; he makes peace in his high heaven." Job 25:2 ESV
Great peace have those who love your law; nothing can make them stumble. I hope for your salvation, O Lord, and I do your commandments. My soul keeps your testimonies; I love them exceedingly. I keep your precepts and testimonies, for all my ways are before you. Psalm 119:165 168 ESV
The righteous man perishes, and no one lays it to heart; devout men are taken away, while no one understands. For the righteous man is taken away from calamity; he enters into peace; they rest in their beds who walk in their uprightness. Isaiah 57:1 2 ESV
Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 5:1 ESV
We stand justified in peace with God through Christ.
Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Your heart must not be troubled or fearful." John 14:27 HCSB
You are from God, little children, and you have conquered them, because the One who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. 1 John 4:4 HCSB
The Lord gives His people strength; the Lord blesses His people with peace. Psalm 29:11 HCSB
Renew your Peace 1. Believe in Jesus, trust Him and His Word (John 3:16-18). 2. Confess your sins (Isaiah 48:22; 57:21 - There is no peace for the wicked, says my God.) 3. Read the Word daily and follow what God says (2 Timothy 3:16). 4. Pray constantly (Luke 8:1; Philippians 4:6).
You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you. Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord God is an everlasting rock. Isaiah 26:3 4 ESV
