~ JESUS IS YOUR…PEACE @everyone
Beloved, the mere thought that I and my children and my entire household belong to Jesus Christ, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, gives me tremendous peace.
I submit to you that when we trust Jesus to take care of us, we no longer have to worry or be concerned for our life, because He is in control of all that concerns us. He takes responsibility for our wellbeing.
In fact the prophecy of Jesus’ birth in Isaiah 9:6,7 AMP tells us that He is the Prince of peace.
”For to us a Child shall be born, to us a Son shall be given; And the government shall be upon His shoulder,
And His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
There shall be no end to the increase of His government and of peace, [He shall rule] on the throne of David and over his kingdom,
To establish it and to uphold it with justice and righteousness From that time forward and forevermore. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will accomplish this.”
Also, when the enemy attacks us Romans 16:20 AMP tells us that Jesus will crush Satan under our feet.
The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The [wonderful] grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.”
Jesus Christ promised in John 14:27 AMP
”Peace I leave with you; My [perfect] peace I give to you;
not as the world gives do I give to you.
Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid.
[Let My perfect peace calm you in every circumstance and give you courage and strength for every challenge.]”
The Bible tells us that Jesus is our peace in Ephesians 2:14-18 AMP:
”For He Himself is our peace and our bond of unity.
He who made both groups—[Jews and Gentiles]—into one body and broke down the barrier,
the dividing wall [of spiritual antagonism between us], by abolishing in His [own crucified] flesh the hostility caused by the Law with its commandments contained in ordinances [which He satisfied];
so that in Himself He might make the two into one new man, thereby establishing peace.
And [that He] might reconcile them both [Jew and Gentile, united] in one body to God through the cross, thereby putting to death the hostility.
And He came and preached the good news of peace to you [Gentiles] who were far away, and peace to those [Jews] who were near.
For it is through Him that we both have a [direct] way of approach in one Spirit to the Father.”
This verse explains that Jesus’s mission was to reconcile people and create one united community of believers.
Jesus broke down the wall of hostility between Jews and Gentiles.
Jesus reconciled both groups to God through his death on the cross.
Jesus’s death and resurrection made it possible for people to have peace with God.
Jesus’s life and character, through the Holy Spirit, help people learn to abide in the peace of God.
