PEACE  OF  GOD.

Considering all the disaster going on in various parts of the world,

the calamities we hear in the national and international news; the

way lawlessness is abounding within this society and also the

temptation to get anxious and worried over this issues.

Jesus Say’s ” Peace i leave with you, my peace i give to you;

not as the world gives do i give to you. Let not your heart be

troubled, neither let it be afraid” John 14:27.

The peace of God is that tranquillity of mind freeing the believer

from fear and worry. As a Christian, we need to be aware of what

our Master, Saviour, and Soon Coming King has given to us. He

has warned us not to allow our heart to be troubled or afraid.

We should not allow our love for the Lord to wax cold because

of the issues happening around us and we also need to be watchful

and pray without ceasing. We are expected to keep our heart fixed

on the Lord daily and put our trust in Him. The peace received

from Christ is the inward peace of conscience that arises from a

sense of pardoned sin and of reconciliation with God.

It is not given sparingly, selfishly and for a short time. His gift of

peace is forever. Let us continue to keep the bond of unity and

carry on doing what we have all been called to do as stated in

Mark 16:15-18 “ go ye into the entire world,and preach the gospel

to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved;

but he that beliveth not shall be damned. And these signs shall

follow them that believe; in my name shall they cast out devils;

they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents;

and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they

shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover”.

As the master said to his servant in the parable, our Lord Jesus

gave in Luke 19:13 ” OCCUPY TILL I COME“.
