June 24 ~ PERFECT PEACE: THE KNOWLEDGE OF JESUS BRINGS PEACE

Posted on Jun 24, 2020 in BLOG, Devotions |

2 Peter 1:2 ~ “Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord.”

PERFECT PEACE: THE KNOWLEDGE OF JESUS BRINGS PEACE

Can you see Jesus beyond the babe in a manger, the carpenter’s son, or just one of the prophets? While many in Jesus’ day chose to limit Him in their minds to just a man, the Apostle Peter through divine revelation, knew who Jesus was (Matthew 16:17). He explained that grace and peace are multiplied through the knowledge of Jesus Christ. We learn more and more about the Peacegiver when we learn how to approach Jesus. Lazarus’ sister, Mary, demonstrated that in moments of grief and pain, perfect peace begins at the feet of Jesus. (John 11: 32)

June 23 ~ PERFECT PEACE: DON’T LET EVIL CONQUER YOU!

Ephesians 3:10-11 ~ “For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.”

PERFECT PEACE: DON’T LET EVIL CONQUER YOU!

You don’t have Jesus walking beside you in physical form, but you do have His Word to lead and guide you every step of the way to build a solid foundation. Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good. Make a genuine effort today to strive for peace as you interact with family, friends, and even your enemies. Keep your eyes on the prize which is eternal life with God.

Psalm 46:10 ~ “Be still and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.”

PERFECT PEACE: DO NOT FEAR: JESUS IS IN CONTROL

During these times, we know that God is our perfect peace. We are secure and stable under the blood of Jesus! Jesus is in control of everything. The Lord gives us His peace. Let not our hearts be troubled, neither let us be afraid (John 14:27).

June 21 ~ PERFECT PEACE: GOD’S PEACE CANCELS CONFUSION

Posted on Jun 21, 2020 in BLOG, Devotions |

Jun '20

I Corinthians 14:33 ~ “For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.”

PERFECT PEACE: GOD’S PEACE CANCELS CONFUSION

If we are not careful, feelings of strife, contention, and confusion can creep in among members of the Body of Christ. Our minds could slip into a dangerous place of not forgiving and being bitter. The scripture teaches us that God does not author confusion, but peace! Don’t allow the flesh to cause you to lose your focus or cool and shift blame on your brothers and sisters. Instead, allow the God of peace to give you words of wisdom seasoned with kindness.

June 20 ~ PERFECT PEACE: WE ARE SHELTERED IN PLACE

Posted on Jun 20, 2020 in BLOG, Devotions |

Jun '20

Romans 14:17 ~ “For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.”

PERFECT PEACE: WE ARE SHELTERED IN PLACE

Christ alone, through his finished work on the Cross, is the true source of our righteousness, peace and joy. God, by His divine power, has already given us everything we need to live righteously and victoriously, including an endless flow of Living Water and an abundant supply of the Bread of Life. We are thus clothed in the righteousness of Christ through the Holy Ghost. For now, “social distancing” may have us separated from each other bodily, but our perfect peace and inspiration come from knowing we are sheltered together in spirit in the secret place of the Most High. We give glory to God because we are protected from perils and pestilences both seen and unseen!!

June 19 ~ PERFECT PEACE: FREEDOM FROM BONDAGE

Posted on Jun 19, 2020 in BLOG, Devotions |

Romans 8:6 ~ “For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.”

PERFECT PEACE: FREEDOM FROM BONDAGE

Carnality is an attitude that exalts only the flesh, and it fights against God. A repentant heart embraces the grace of God. Open the door to receive the gift of the Holy Spirit, eternal life and peace.

June 18 ~ PERFECT PEACE: JUSTIFICATION THROUGH FAITH

Posted on Jun 18, 2020 in BLOG, Devotions |

Jun '20

Romans 5:1 ~ “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:”

PERFECT PEACE: JUSTIFICATION THROUGH FAITH

Being justified by faith means that God has wiped your sins away and you have been put right with God through faith. Our peace comes from being united in both fasting and prayer, one for the other, that the God of Hope will fill you with joy and peace as you trust in Him. Now, you have the ability to overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Ghost. We must look to God to give us hope and inner peace and not to a world filled with fear, worry and doubt. Saints of God, be in continuous prayer and be inspired knowing that you share in God’s Perfect Peace.

June 17 ~ PERFECT PEACE: IT IS NIGH THEE IN THY MOUTH

Posted on Jun 17, 2020 in BLOG, Devotions |

Mark 4:39 ~ “And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.”

PERFECT PEACE: IT IS NIGH THEE IN THY MOUTH

When the wind caused such tumultuous conditions that day on the sea, Jesus arose, rebuked the wind, and spoke to the sea; peace and calm then followed. Let us awaken the Jesus within us today. Take authority and speak to that situation that wants to control and bring torment to your life. Everything is subject to that great Name of Jesus!

June 16 ~ PERFECT PEACE: DOES GOD REALLY KNOW?

Posted on Jun 16, 2020 in BLOG, Devotions |

Jun '20

Jeremiah 29:11 ~ “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not evil, to give you an expected end.”

PERFECT PEACE: DOES GOD REALLY KNOW?

There is absolutely nothing that God does not already know. He knew that, for many, this would be a time of distress and fear. Yet, He is providing us, as His children, a peace in the midst of our current situation. This peace remains as we continue to read God’s Word, fast, and pray. Go ahead and give God the praise NOW, knowing that He is faithful and just to give us an expected end!

June 15 ~ PERFECT PEACE: ARE YOU AT PEACE?

Posted on Jun 15, 2020 in BLOG, Devotions |

Jun '20

Psalm 29:11 ~ “The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace.”

PERFECT PEACE: ARE YOU AT PEACE?

You can have peace if you desire it. Peace is defined as calmness, tranquility, or freedom from disturbance. Are you at peace, or are you consumed with the things of this world? Peace can never be found in people or in materialistic things but can only be achieved through Jesus Christ. Take this God-given day to block out every distraction that is seeking your attention, and seek more of Jesus through His Word, prayer, and fasting.
