JESUS is the Prince of Peace!
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.
John 14:27 NIV
Scripture
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 (John 14:27)
And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7)
Reflections
True peace only comes as a result of living a life filled with the Spirit of God through a relationship with Jesus Christ.
Drawing from Isaiah 26:3, Charles Spurgeon wrote,
“The God of peace gives perfect peace to those whose hearts are stayed upon Him.”
In order to experience the peace of God, we first must have peace with God, which only comes through complete surrender to Christ as our Lord and Savior.
