Greetings in The Mighty Name of Jesus, The Christ!!!
The Peace
John 14:27 KJV
"Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."
There is a Peace that Jesus gives through The Holy Spirit that the World cannot give, nor can The World obtain this Peace that Jesus gives to those who are His Disciples. We Brothers and Sisters have what The World desires, but their desire is of the Flesh and ours is of The Holy Spirit that reigns in Our Lives.
There are Two factors of this Peace that we must understand, but yet there are three. The First that controls the other two is that we Must be Born Again, a Blood Bought. The Second is that we Must be Walking in Obedience to The Word and The Holy Spirit. Lastly, we Must Surrender all things into Jesus Hands, no matter how small or how big, all things that touch Our Lives We Must Surrender.
Understand this, that all three can be separated, a Unsaved Person can follow the concepts that are found in the Bible and yet not have Peace, likewise can a Blood Bought do the same things within the Bible and yet have not Peace. The one part that is a Must, is Surrender. We as Born Again have the obligation to Surrender All Things into Jesus Hands…
Matthew 16:24 KJV
"Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any [man] will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me."
John 12:24-26 KJV
"24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. 25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. 26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will [my] Father honour."
After Salvation is Surrender. We must not seek those things that The World Seeks, but Seek only The Fathers Will through Jesus as Savior then Lord. The Letting Go Of is one of the hardest parts of making Jesus Lord that a True Born Again hast to do, the second is Walking in Obedience or even vise versa.
There are many within and without of The Church that Does Not Understand what it means to be a Disciple and that without being a Disciple can never obtain The Peace that Jesus only gives to His Disciples.
The Biblical Meaning Of Disciple: a learner, pupil, disciple.
The Worlds Meaning Of Disciple: a follower or student of a teacher, leader, or philosopher.
A Disciple Of Jesus Must become as Jesus Is…
Matthew 10:24-25 KJV
"24 The disciple is not above [his] master, nor the servant above his lord. 25 It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more [shall they call] them of his household?"
To Obtain Peace that only Jesus gives us through The Holy Spirit then we Must Walk As Disciples, doing and being as Jesus is. We Must be DOING The Fathers Will in Our Lives to Receive The Peace that surpasses all understanding in all situations. Is this easy…NO!, but it is a Requirement for all who Call Jesus Savior then Lord. Walking a Surrendered Life, Walking In Obedience, is not easy and can be one of Life’s Hardest things to do, but in doing so, we Obtain God’s Peace within our lives that is Unmeasured!!!
Philippians 4:6-7 KJV
"6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."
We, Brothers and Sisters Must be as The Father Is, Must be as Jesus Is, Must be as The Holy Spirit Teaches to have Peace that the World does not understand. The Requirements…
Romans 12:1-2 KJV
"1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, [which is] your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."
Matthew 7:21 KJV
“Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven."
John 16:33 KJV
“ These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world."
By Acceptance, Surrender and Obedience Peace is a part of Our Walk and in that Walk we can Show The World the Peace that only Jesus can give us and with this Peace that is within us, we Must be Peaceful to each other, holding up the House Of God. When we have God’s Peace than and only then can we have a Peace with our enemies, not as Friends, but as an instrument to Minister Jesus Love towards them!
Romans 2:10 KJV
“But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:"
Romans 15:13 KJV
“Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost."
Now Understand this, the Peace in which I am speaking of is only to the Born Again, Blood Bought, this World and all those who are Not The Disciples Of Jesus CANNOT Obtain this Peace!!! With that being said, Understand that there will be No Peace In The World and there maybe No Peace in the Environment that you are in, but you can still have Peace in the midst of Trials and Troubles, even in those things of your own house.
Matthew 10:34 KJV
“Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword."
Luke 12:51-53 KJV
"51 Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division: 52 For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three. 53 The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law."
Do not get the No Peace in the World confused with the Peace that we as The Disciples of Jesus have, the two are totally different in every aspect. There are some who pray for Peace In The World, but if we are Walking as Jesus Commands, we will never find Peace in the World, but only In Jesus! The World is going to be at War, at Variance with each other until The Father finishes His Work.
If we, Brothers and Sisters, are Saved by Grace, Surrender Our Lives Fully To Jesus, Walk In Obedience To The Word and The Holy Spirit we can have a Peace to overcome all things in this World, in Our Lives, but the three Must be present. We can Walk through every Trial, Tribulation that touches our lives and still have this Peace. Again, it is not an easy road to Obtain The Peace that Jesus said He would give us, it is Hard to Let Go and Let Jesus Be IN Control…but, in The Power and Authority of The Holy Spirit we can make it!!!
Amen and Amen!!!
