Peace Beyond Understanding

There is a peace that is beyond our understanding and in John 14:27 Jesus said, 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.

We are kept in this perfect peace when our mind is stayed on Him. The minute we let other things distract us, it disconnects us from the source of peace and our minds can become frazzled and fearful.

Let this be our prayer…

Abba Father, Don’t let me get carried away with fearful thoughts that try to lead me astray. Keep my eyes from looking at worthless things. Open my eyes and enlighten them to see wondrous things from Your word. May I only listen to Your voice and not others. Speak to my heart as I surrender my senses to You. May I not lean on my own understanding for Your ways and thoughts are so much higher than mine. Keep me under the umbrella of Your grace to face another day. I trust You and acknowledge You, direct my steps I pray, so I may walk in victory. In Jesus name, Amen

After I wrote this prayer the Holy Spirit directed me to scriptures  in the book of Jude, which are powerful.

20. Build yourself up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit.

21. Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus unto eternal life.

24. Now to Him who is able to keep us from falling and to present us faultless at the presence of His glory with exceeding joy.

25. To God our Saviour who alone is wise. Be Glory and Majesty, Dominion and Power both now and forever. Amen

So there is a work to do on our part…

We are to Build up ourselves by praying in the Holy Spirit.

We are to Keep ourselves in the love of God and in other words, not get distracted..

And Looking for His mercy unto eternity.

But that’s not all, He is able to keep us from falling and presents us faultless at the presence of His glory on that day with exceeding joy. And I say praise God, thank You Holy Spirit for this powerful word to apply to our lives every day, so we can rise above the world and live in victory.

I pray this word is a blessing to you as it is to me. Love and blessings, Lollita
