The Peace I Give Is A Gift The World Cannot Give

Alan Terry • 6 October 2024

Above All, Put On Love

JOHN 14:27
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.
”‭‭John‬ ‭14:27‬ ‭NKJV‬

My brothers and sisters, without peace of mind one can never be truly happy. But the end result of walking in faith by the leading of the Holy Spirit is peace, joy, and contentment in whatever situation one may face.
When you have God’s peace, you are more than a millionaire.
Unlike worldly peace, which is defined by lack of conflict, God’s peace is a confident assurance that whatever situation or troubles one is facing, he or she will have nothing to fear; not in the present time or the future.
God already made a way in all your trials and challenges to the victory (ROMANS 8:37). “And the LORD, He is the One who goes before you. He will be with you, He will not leave you nor forsake you; do not fear nor be dismayed.””
‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭31:8‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
God does not lie or break His promises, “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭8:28‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
So why do you have such little faith?
Today, this world is in turmoil. The devil is using fear, lies, and corruption to get his way. He is using proper gander to mislead the people and destroy our freedoms.
He is here with an agenda to destroy your marriages, your finances, and your peace, and to ultimately destroy your faith. Furthermore, he is going all out to destroy world peace, our financial systems, businesses and jobs.
He has brought poverty, lawlessness, and sexual immorality into the lives of many and is the source of addiction, anxiety, depression, suicides, and all kinds of sickness.
He has hindered the assembly of the church, and seriously reduced effective prayer.
But in all these things, we already have the victory through Christ who is our strength (1 CORINTHIANS 15:57).
My brethren, wake up to the truth and walk in faith. “And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.”
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭10:24-25‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
My beloved, we have powerful weapons at hand to use against the devil and his evil schemes that will give us the victory. They are the Word of God, prayer, and worship, but above these, we have the power of love.
Love is a weapon of mass destruction against the enemy and shall endure forever.
Science is not working! Social distancing, masks, and shutting our schools and businesses has done horrendous damage to our way of life and fear has bound many.
“Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭8:37-39‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
When it comes to peace, Paul gives us excellent advice. “Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4:4-7‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
My brethren, give all your battles, cares, and worries to the Lord, “But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be 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 whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.”
‭‭Colossians‬ ‭3:14-17‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
All glory to God forever and ever! Amen.
