THE GOD OF PEACE

4:9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.


The God of peace will be with you.

The apostle Paul often referred to the Lord as the God of peace. In Romans
he said, "Now the God of peace be with you all" (15:33). In 2 Corinthians
he wrote, "The God of love and peace will be with you" (13:11). And to the
Thessalonian believers he said, "Now may the Lord of peace Himself give you
peace always in every way" (2 Thess. 3:16).

Today's verse emphasizes the fact that God's character is peace. He is the
origin and giver of peace. When we have godly attitudes, thoughts, and
actions, the peace of God and the God of peace will guard us. His peace
provides comfort, tranquility, quietness, and confidence in the midst of any
trial you may face.

I am so thankful for His Peace, many times I find myself in need of peace, but not just any peace will do.   I've found that only God peace can calm my raging sea.  I truly give God all the praise and all the glory.

God bless you my sister.

Awesome truth that we each need to grab a hold of and make real...

5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,


Seeing that one of the manifestations of a Spirit-filled life is peace....we should all strive to allow the spirit to bring forth this fruit in all of us....

Thand God for His perfect peace in me

PEACE IS WHOLENESS.
The peace sought in these verses is much more than the mere absence of conflict. It suggests completeness, health, justice, prosperity, and protection. The world cannot provide this peace. Real peace comes from faith in God, because he alone embodies all the characteristics of peace. To find peace of mind and peace with others, you must find peace with God.
BIBLE READING: John 14:1-31
KEY BIBLE VERSE: I am leaving you with a gift-peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give isn’t like the peace the world gives. So don’t be troubled or afraid. (John 14:27)


PEACE IS RESTING IN GOD’S SOVEREIGNTY.
The end result of the Holy Spirit’s work in our life is deep and lasting peace. Unlike worldly peace, which is usually defined as the absence of conflict, this peace is confident assurance in any circumstance. With Christ’s peace, we have no need to fear the present or the future. If your life is full of stress, allow the Holy Spirit to fill you with Christ’s peace (see Philippians 4:6-7 for more on experiencing God’s peace).

FINALLY. .. I have true peace and feel blessed completely ... furthermore... completely forgiven and healed. The Lord is so awesome

Peace be still is the hardest thing for this toddler Christian to learn. YIKES. That means I actually have to shut up and listen... ARGH

Blessings.
