Topic: Peace In Him.

Memory Verse : Colossians 3:14. And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.

Bible Reading : Colossians 3:15-17 KJV. Key Verse: v25

And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

One important thing Jesus gave his followers that you can’t get anywhere else is peace. This kind of peace is not found on the surface, rather it springs like a well from our innermost being it is rooted in understanding of whom we are before our creator and saviour, as a result of the flourishing relationship that we have with him. This relationship therefore guarantees us his abiding presence which makes the difference in our individual lives. His presence therefore secures us and all that belongs to us, even in the midst of unfavourable circumstances. Apostle Paul knew something about it… “Now listen to me. Don’t be depressed, for no one will perish—only the ship will be lost. For God’s angel visited me last night, the angel of my God, the God I passionately serve. He came and stood in front of me and said, ‘Don’t be afraid, Paul. You are destined to stand trial before Caesar. And because of God’s favor on you, he has given you the lives of everyone who is sailing with you.’ Act 27:22-24 TPT.

One factor that will make this peace functional and effective is that we walk in obedience to his command to love others just the way himself loved us and gave himself for us. Love covers a multitude of sins and makes room for forgiveness when we get offended. “There’s no need for anyone to say much to you about loving your fellow believers, for God is continually teaching you to unselfishly love one another. Indeed, your love is what you’re known for throughout Macedonia. We urge you, beloved ones, to let this unselfish love increase and flow through you more and more. Aspire to lead a calm and peaceful life as you mind your own business and earn your living, just as we’ve taught you. By doing this you will live an honorable life, influencing others and commanding respect of even the unbelievers. Then you’ll be in need of nothing and not dependent upon others.” 1 Thessalonians 4:9-12 TPT.

Finally, we have to allow the word of God to rule our hearts. This can only be possible when we make ourselves students of the word intentionally. At the point when we become filled with the word, there will always be an overflow or spill ovet to touch or impact the lives of others around us by the help of the Spirit of God at work in us. “Let the word of Christ live in you richly, flooding you with all wisdom. Apply the Scriptures as you teach and instruct one another with the Psalms, and with festive praises, and with prophetic songs given to you spontaneously by the Spirit, so sing to God with all your hearts! Let every activity of your lives and every word that comes from your lips be drenched with the beauty of our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One. And bring your constant praise to God the Father because of what Christ has done for you!” Colossians 3:16-17 TPT.

Prayer :Thank you Lord Jesus because you saved me and gave me your peace to use. Thank you because your love is shed abroad in my heart by your Spirit. Let your word dwell in me richly till my life becomes a blessing to many in Jesus precious name… Amen 🙏🏿.

Yearly Bible Reading : Job 42:1-17.
