THE PEACE OF CHRIST
And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard
your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:7)
The Bible comforts us saying, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:6,7).
Lord Jesus also says, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid” (John 14:27). According to the above mentioned Scripture verses, Lord Jesus Christ will grant us His divine peace which transcends all understanding.
By the immense grace of God, both my husband and I were united in holy matrimony. The first thing both of us did was to surrender our lives into the hands of God. From that moment, He also united Himself with us and divine peace began to prevail in our family. We lived happily for 48 years and all through those years, we were filled with divine peace. Above all, the Lord graciously helped us to bring this divine peace upon countless families.
How to receive divine peace?
The Bible says, “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God” (Hebrews 12:1,2).
Lord Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life. So let us run our race patiently in this world. He is the author and perfecter of our faith. He says, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28).
Dear friend, leave all your worries and pray to God with thanksgiving. Place all your burdens upon Him and He will care for you (I Peter 5:7). Above all, He will fill you with His divine peace which transcends all understanding.
Prayer:
Loving Lord Jesus,
You are the Prince of Peace. Your peace surpasses all understanding. I know that You are in control of everything. I trust that You are with me all the time. I place all my cares upon You and wait for your deliverance. May I be comforted by your presence. Let your immeasurable peace flow into my heart. I give You all honour.
I ask this through Christ our Lord
Amen.
