Introduction


The Peace of God

is

Supernatural and Available.


Jesus said,

" 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. "

John 14:27 KJV

Jesus-come-bruce

The peace of Jesus is a Supernatural Peace.

Jesus has

given us that peace - yet

WE need to learn how to receive it.


Jesus-hand-come

We need to learn to

absorb   Peace   in all its fullness.

We need to learn how to intentionally

do things

that will result

in the peace of God being experienced

in our mind and our emotions.

God  of  Soothing Peace,

You are my oasis away from all the chaos of this world.

You are

calm, wise, above it all

- understanding everything -

ever loving.


God, I come today to give you praise.

You are my Shield.

You are my Strong Tower - the one I run to.


You are my Peace.

Help me to absorb all the peace you have for me.


Help me to see my problems as surrounded by your peace.

Teach me

how

to keep my problems from disturbing my peace.

I will remind myself that you are ready to guide me.


Help me to distance myself

from

the unhelpful emotions that are easily associated

with

my problems,

my loved ones' problems,

and the problems of this world.


 May I live with the supernatural peace

and power

that you want me to receive and enjoy.


Lord, thinking about
my
struggling loved ones
often
dissolves my peace.

Help me to see the problems my loved ones' experience
as
stepping stones
that
will eventually lead them
toward greater wisdom and more dependance on you.

When I see my loved ones suffering
or
not following you -

I will call out in prayer
for your blessings
and for
my loved ones to place you in the center of their lives.


Lord, thinking about
the ungodliness of this world
often
dissolves my peace.

Help me to see the problems and chaos in this world -
as being
in your hands
and
under your watchful eye
and remind me not to let those things lodge in my heart.

When I see
the chaos that results from the ungodliness of my country -
I will
call out in prayer for those in my country
to love you and follow you.


When I realize that I am slipping away from your peace

during

my day -

I will call out in prayer slowly saying,

"Loving Heavenly Father -

You are my ever-present help.

You are the Shepherd of my heart. 

You are the God of Soothing Peace.

You are my beloved Abba

in whom

my soul rests.

I will look to your Guidance and yield to your Peace. "


In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen

Abba means Father.

Three times in the KJV Bible, we read "Abba, Father."

Mark 14:36, Romans 8:15, and Galatians 4:6

Wisdom Thoughts


John 14:27 NKJV

says...

" Peace I leave with you,

My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you.

Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."

Scripture says,

" Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. "

Notice the word

" LET. "


We can easily LET our heart be troubled or afraid.

It is natural to LET our heart be troubled or afraid.

But

by following God's guidance,

we can

learn to react

Supernaturally.


We can learn to

fight against being troubled or afraid.

Jesus is telling us

Number one -

We need to learn some new things.

For example, we need to learn new strategies

Number two -

We need to exert some effort. 

For example,

We need to exert effort to learn a new strategy.

AND

We need to exert effort to practice that new strategy.


More examples

We need to exert effort to turn on peace-producing music.

We need to exert effort to read and speak out Scriptures.


For ideas on

capturing

unsettling thoughts or ungodly thoughts

and

intentionally think new thoughts....

Let's look at the

Words -

Take & Learn

-

And a Scripture that highlights those words.


Take -  exert effort

Learn -  exert effort to learn new things and practice those new things.

Scripture says...

Take My yoke upon you and learn of Me,

for I am gentle (meek) and humble (lowly) in heart,
and you will find rest
(relief and ease and refreshment and recreation and blessed quiet)
for your souls.

Matthew 11:29 AMPC


In the image below - 

Pay attention to the word 

Leadeth 

psalm-23-still-waters

God leads us

beside the still waters

IF we follow him.

Next

is one of my favorite movies.

It illustrates

how a person 

can find peace

 - through God's guidance - 

in the midst of difficult times.
