GETTING
PEACE
Everyone likes a peaceful state of mind. A peaceful
mind is a settled mind. When there is no peace of mind, a life is disturbed,
unpleasant, oppressed and full of anxiety. A peaceful mind is quite, free of
oppressions and unpleasant thoughts and emotions. We humans are disturbed, when
there is no peace of mind. Peace and rest of mind is important in the life of a
person. When you have peace and rest of mind, your burdens are lifted. When you
have peace and rest of mind, your fears are gone. When you have peace and rest
of mind, you can face tomorrow. As this year ends and as a New Year starts,
many are disturbed about how the New Year will be. Many have no peace of mind
again, about how things will be in the New Year. Many are thoughtful and
emotional about the New Year. Many expectations have been cut off already this
year, and they are disturbed, worried about the New Year. The bible said for surely there is an end, and thine
expectations shall not be cut off. Obviously, when a man’s expectation have
been cut off, he will be disturbed, worried and there will be no peace. But the
bible said, there is an end to it. There is an end to your worry, anxiety,
oppression, sickness, battles, fears, emotional instability, sorrow, crying,
storms; and your expectations will never again be cut off. This can happen
only, if you get a peace that surpasses all understanding. That peace brings an
end to your worry, anxiety, crying, storms, challenges, tribulations, sickness,
fears and whatsoever that is disturbing your life. The peace comes from the
Prince of Peace. Philippians 4 vs. 6-7:
Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication, with
thanksgiving let your request be made know to GOD. And the peace of GOD, which
passes all understanding, shall keep your hearts and mind through CHRIST JESUS.
Only the peace from GOD, can give us a lasting peace. Only the peace from
GOD passes all understanding. We need to get that peace from GOD, to overcome
all in the New Year.
We need to get that peace from GOD, so we can always see GOD in our
situations. Hebrew 12 vs. 14: follow
peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the LORD.
Proverbs 16 vs. 7: When a man’s way please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies
to be at peace with him. To get peace from the Prince of Peace, our ways
must please Him. We must always do his will. Many are men pleaser and not GOD
pleaser. It is better to please GOD than men. Pleasing GOD guarantees
everlasting peace, pleasing men brings limited peace. Holiness is paramount in
pleasing GOD. Many want peace, but are not peacemakers. No man can see GOD,
without following peace with all men and holiness. Matthew 5 vs. 9: Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be
called the children of GOD. Getting the everlasting peace is important for
all men, as the New Year unfolds. The Psalmist says thou prepared a table
before me in the presence of my enemies; that can only happen to people that
please GOD. On a final note, Matthew 6 vs.
33-34: But seek ye first the kingdom of GOD, and his righteousness, and all
these things shall be added to you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow;
for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the
days is evil thereof. Get peace from the Prince of Peace today, and live
with peace forever. It is well with us…..
