CALLED TO PEACE
If there’s no Peace in your life, you should find out why.
But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God has called us to peace – 1 Corinthians 7:15
God has called us to Peace. As Disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ, the only commotion in our lives should be due to persecution. Other than that, our lives should be characterised by serenity.
The Lord Jesus Christ is the Prince of Peace and He lives inside us. As a result, we ought to have peaceful lives. We should be at Peace with our parents, spouses, children, friends, colleagues, employers, employees, the government, and of course, the Body of Christ.
If there’s no Peace in your life, you should find out why. If you’ve sinned, repent. Settle disputes quickly. Make Peace with your enemies. Don’t harbour any resentment. Forgive others just as God has forgiven you. If you’re the guilty party, ask for forgiveness. God has called us to Peace. Glory to God!
PRAYER
Father in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, help me to identify areas of conflict in my life. I give those areas to you and I ask that you make them peaceful. Amen.
