Today's Scripture<br />
“These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have PEACE. In the world<br />
you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world”<br />
John 16:33<br />
JEHOVAH SHALOM - The Lord Is Peace!<br />
Peace with one another means being in a right relationship with one<br />
another. Peace within means being alright within, and peace with God<br />
means being alright with God.<br />
We assume we would have PEACE if we had, a decent salary a year per<br />
person, a nice home for every human being, no sickness or being ill,<br />
plenty of food and water for everyone. These things are not<br />
unimportant! God expects us to try and make many of these things a<br />
reality, but the truth is that these things won't bring PEACE, PEACE with<br />
God will bring them! If these things alone are the foundation of our<br />
peace we will be frustrated constantly and never nd PEACE!<br />
Jesus said in John 16:33, "I have told you these things, so that in me<br />
you may have Peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take<br />
heart! I have overcome the world."<br />
A relationship with God which is a relationship of Peace is available for<br />
each one of us who know Him. Peace is there for the taking. Nothing<br />
can rob you of your peace, because it is based on what Jesus has already<br />
done, not on who we are or what we have done, or the circumstances we<br />
nd ourselves in.<br />
Do you have PEACE today? Do you want PEACE today? I encourage you<br />
to examine your relationship with God, the God of PEACE. This is where<br />
true PEACE comes from.<br />
Prayer<br />
For The Day<br />
Heavenly Father, thank<br />
you for your peace which<br />
passes all understanding.<br />
I choose to expect Your<br />
goodness. I choose to<br />
f o c u s o n Y o u r<br />
faithfulness. I trust that<br />
You are working behind<br />
the scenes, and I expect<br />
that You will turn things<br />
around for my good in<br />
Jesus name. Amen."<br />
