Peace of God

Apostle Paul told believers in Jesus that the peace of God should rule in their hearts. It’s a wonderful and remarkable statement.

First, it is the peace of God – not the peace of man, not the peace of surrender, not the peace of compromise. God’s peace is both the peace He has and the peace He gives. God lives in perfect peace. He isn’t anxious or troubled about anything. Jesus gave us the gift of God’s perfect peace (John 14:27), and by faith this peace can be ours and can rule in our hearts. ~David Guzik

Woman Warrior of God...

 

As I’m putting on my clothes, I ask God to clothe me with His character, wrap me up in His truth, cover my heart with His righteousness, guard my mind with His salvation. And to keep me focused on the war I’m in, I spend time in His presence, praising Him for who He is (a mental reminder that He is God and bigger than any problem or pain in my life), reading His Word (and getting His advice for the day instead of the world’s) and listening for His voice (which will remind me who my commanding officer is – the King of Kings, not my fears, doubts, wounds, or regrets). ~ Cindi McMenamin

Search me O God!

“It may be significant that the word fruit is singular; Paul is not speaking of a series of fruits that would be shared around, so that one believer has one, another another. Rather he is referring to a cluster, such that all the qualities are to be manifested in each believer.” (Morris)

I need God to search me in this way. Don’t you? I am inviting God to open my heart so that I might receive the conviction of his Spirit.

Fear Not!

Do not fear: “How powerful is this word 

when spoken by the Spirit of the Lord to a disconsolate heart. 

To every mourner we may say, on the authority of God, 

Fear not! God will plead thy cause, and redeem thy soul.” (Clarke)
