““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). No matter what the situation may be if it is on your job, if it’s in your home, in your finances, in your health, in your ministry what ever the situation is, you can rest assured that you can still have peace. Jesus said that the peace he gives us is not like the world, the definition of peace is the absence of war or other hostilities. The peace that Jesus gives supplies strength and comfort for every situation. For every time a situation arises and cause uncertainty, fear, and doubt to make us troubled and afraid; the peace of God moves into our hearts and lives to bring under control these intimidating forces and causes comfort in the place of conflict. Anything that causes fear, worry, and anxiety is not of God, because God has promised us love, power and a sound mind. Jesus said “don’t let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid,” don’t meditate on the situation but instead begin to speak God’s peace into every situation. Therefore, no matter what surrounds you today choose to live in peace….   Prayer: Father we love you and adore you, we lift you up above every problem; every situation and we speak your peace into our lives. Lord you are Jehovah Shalom the God of peace create wholeness in our lives, nothing missing nothing broken, and cause your peace to rule in our hearts we pray this in the mighty name of Jesus the Christ amen.
