How to get peace
People are looking for true peace and wholeness in their lives.
Peace is Possible. It is offered to all. It’s a Promise from God. The Gospel is "the gospel of peace" (Ephesians 6:15). The message of Peace with God. This Peace is not from some mystical ritual, or some guru. It is the Peace of God through Christ Jesus. He is the source of it.
It’s been said: NO GOD - NO PEACE. KNOW GOD - KNOW PEACE.
The Peace of God comes from knowing God. First, Paul talks of
1. PEACEFUL PRAYING
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
Stop being anxious. Don't worry about anything - pray about everything.
Instead of fretting and worrying, pray. We can bring our every need to Him.
Prayer is one of Paul's solutions to finding peace. Instead of anxious care - use prayer.
Paul also calls us to:
2. PEACEFUL THINKING
And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
His Peace is like nothing else. God's Peace will protect your heart and your thoughts. God's Peace will guard the gates of your hearts and minds.
Isaiah 26:3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. Colossians 3:15 …let the Peace of God rule in your hearts.
The average person has 10,000 separate thoughts each day. That works out to 3.5 million thoughts a year.
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true… honest… just… pure… lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
How are your thoughts? Your thought life? What do we fill our minds with?
We can control our thoughts. Let your mind dwell on these things.
What are we absorbing? What is our mind processing? - Apply God’s filter. Philippians 4:8.
Right thinking leads to right living.
3. PEACEFUL LIVING
Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
Paul urges the Philippians to do right - to live right. Put your faith into action. Paul offers himself as a living example of a godly life. Paul urges them to live a holy and faithful life. God’s peace walks with us.
Paul says:
• what I have taught
• what you have heard me say and
• seen me do...
Practice these things.
If you live like this... the God of Peace shall be with you. Not just the Peace of God. But the God of Peace.
"He is our Peace"; Ephesians 2:14. He Himself. Our Peace is a Person. He is the Author and Maintainer of Peace. The Lord Jesus is the Prince of Peace - Are you His royal subject? Peace is a Person.
Do you have this peace? He is the One who brings Peace to people's acheing, broken lives through the Blood of His Cross. Colossians 1:20.
Jesus says, John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
The peace that Jesus gives won’t be taken away. He won’t let you down.
Our Lord Jesus wants to give us true joy beyond anything else in the world. It is not a false kind of peace.
This kind of Peace is a real, new purpose in life - a brand new start in life.
Christ is the only true and reliable source of Peace in our world today. He says, “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest… I will give you Peace - “for your souls” (Matt. 11:30).
Christ's call to you is still the same. Let Him bring His Peace to your heart and life.
What a Promise! the God of peace shall be with you - The God of Peace Himself shall be with you. Romans 5:1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Have you made peace with God - or are you still fighting against Him? John 20:26 Then came Jesus… and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.
