This month our Scripture Writing/Reading Plan is all about peace! Peace is not a superficial feeling that we have and peace is not something that we can bring about for ourselves. Peace is not something that we automatically have and it is not something we can just decide we have achieved. Peace is something we all long for! We all long to have peace in ourselves, in our inner being! Only in Jesus can we receive true eternal peace, peace with God and peace in our inner being! Peace is something that we can only receive from Jesus Christ who loves us and gave Himself for us to reconcile us to God by the shedding of His blood for us! We all long for peace and the only way that we can receive peace is to accept Jesus Christ as our personal Lord and Savior!
We are all imperfect and we all sin. (Romans 3:23) Our in separates us from God and our sin leads to death. (Isaiah 59:2, Romans 6:23) God is perfect and Holy and our sin separates us from God and our sin keeps us from having peace with God! Our sinful nature and our sinful ways keep us from having peace with God! Our sin prevents our peace. Jesus died on the cross to save us from our sins and all who believe in Jesus and accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior receive eternal life in Jesus and eternal forgiveness for all of their past, present and future sins in Him! Only once we have accepted Jesus Christ as our personal Lord and Savior do we receive eternal forgiveness for all of our sins and peace with God, true eternal peace! (Romans 5:1-2) Jesus is our peace! (Ephesians 2:14) All who believe in Jesus become children of God and Jesus lives in their inner being as their personal Lord and Savior! (John 1:12) If Jesus lives in you as your personal Lord and Savior, then you have true eternal peace, peace with God and peace in your inner being! You have been eternally redeemed by the precious blood of Jesus who gave Himself for you to reconcile you to God! You have been blessed with eternal peace, hope and joy in your Savior Jesus and it is no longer you who lives but it is Jesus who lives in you and He is your life! (Galatians 2:20, Colossians 3:4) You have everything that you need in your Savior Jesus, who lives in you, and you have true peace in every way!
