November 9. John ch 4-5
WAY TO PEACE OF GOD
Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. Psalms 34:14 NIV
GOOD DAY: Yesterday, we read that Jesus left His peace with those who believe in Him yet we are to seek it. You might think this is the Old Testament but Apostle Peter repeated it in 1 Peter 3:10-11. Also, the peace of God is the state of being on the same page with God. Any time you fall out of the same page with Him, you move away from His peace. He does not change your, He has not removed His peace from the world but we have to seek it and move into it.
How do you seek peace?
“There is such a great peace and well-being that comes to the lovers of your Word, and they will never be offended.” Psalms 119:165 TPT
The first way to seek the peace of God is to love His Word; some translations use Law instead of Word. “For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12 NIV
This is the reason why a great peace and well being comes to those who love the Word of God. The word of God reaches the deepest recesses of the heart of man to know the thoughts and attitudes of the heart and see if a man’s thoughts and intentions are the same as God’s. Once agreeing with God is from the heart and not just mouthing it, a great peace and well being comes to such a person. You may want ti ask what part of the word of God you should read. To this I say make a regular habit of reading through the word of God yearly. Meditate further on this today and we’ll continue tomorrow.
PRAY: Dear Lord Jesus, give me a heart that will love the word of God.
