Good
Morning!
When
I started this message about "peace", I referred to John 14:27.
I want to go back to that scripture and share with you exactly what Jesus
said, according to the Amplified Bible~~~~~~~
"Peace I leave with you; My (own) peace I now give and bequeath to
you. Not
as the world gives, do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled,
neither
let it be afraid-----stop allowing yourselves to be agitated and disturbed;
and do
not permit yourselves to be fearful and intimidated, cowardly, or
unsettled."
Isaiah
26:3 tells us that God will keep us in perfect peace when our
"minds" are stayed upon Him.. So, when "thoughts"
come to your mind that cause you to be troubled or fearful
or agitated or disturbed......and if those "thoughts"
make you feel intimidated, cowardly or unsettled.......just
say "NO"! Then start thinking about The Lord! Think about His
goodness.....think about His mercy.....think about His faithfulness.....think
about His "love"! If you will do this, then
"Peace" will come to you! This is a "covenant
promise" from the Lord to you!
I encourage you to read these
"scriptures", and read them out-loud! That way
you will "hear" the Word of God.....and faith comes by
"hearing"! (Romans 10:17)
May
the Peace of God, that passes all understanding, be manifested in your life!
Have
a Blessed and Peace-full Weekend!!
In His Love, Luanne
