Peace

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not let them be afraid.
—John 14
Send Thy peace, O Lord, which is perfect and everlasting that our souls, may radiate peace.
Send Thy peace, O Lord, that amidst our worldly strife we may enjoy Thy bliss
Send Thy peace, O Lord, that we may endure all, tolerate all in the thought of Thy grace and mercy.
Send Thy peace, O Lord, our Father and Mother, That we Thy children on earth may all unite in one family.
prayer by Hazrat Inayat Khan

My Councelor

I will praise the Lord, who counsels me; even at night, my heart instructs me. –Psalm 16:7

There is a time when we can talk with God undisturbed.In the stillness of the night, Jesus communes with His children. I know from personal experiences.
It is then when in the quietness of night, He gets our attention and can tell me things.

So take heart, Jesus longs to counsel with you. At night when you can’t sleep, try talking to the shepherd. He is waiting to get in touch with His children.

Tell Him all your problems, Tell Him all your concerns. He is listening and will talk to you. Take time to listen and hear His voice.

I will praise the Lord. He talks to me and tells me things I need to know. My heart instructs me.

Grace Sufficient

 

And he said to me, My grace is sufficient for you: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest on me. 2 Cor. 12:9

 Corinthians 2:3 I was with you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling,
1 Corinthians 2:5 so that your faith would not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.

2 Corinthians 12:5 On behalf of such a man I will boast; but on my own behalf I will not boast, except in regard to my weaknesses.

Ephesians 3:16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man,

Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Him who strengthens me

Called to Holiness

But as he which has called you is holy, so be you holy in all manner of conversation. 1 Peter 1:15

Let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

God has not called us for the purpose of impurity, but to live a life of sanctification.

If any is wise and understanding let him show it by his good behavior. His good deeds will be in gentleness of wisdom.

Everyone who has this hope fixed on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure. 1 John 3:3

Courage

Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD. 

Psalms 27:14

He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. 

Isaiah 40:29

Be strong and take heart, all you who open the LORD.  Psalms 31:24

… “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name;

you are mine.”  Isaiah 43:1

Easter Glory

“They crucified Him, and with Him two others.” John 19:18

This is the true meaning of Easter:

 Jesus dying on the cross for our sins and resurrecting from the grave.

I Believe In A Hill Called Mount Calvary

I believe in a hill called mount calvary
I believe whatever the cost
And when time has surrendered
And earth is no more
I’ll still cling to the old rugged cross

I believe that this life with its great mysteries
Surely someday will come to an end
But faith will conquer the darkness and death
And will lead at last to my friend

I believe that the Christ
Who was slain on the cross
Has the power to change lives today
For He changed me completely
A new life is mine
And that is why by the cross
I will stay

I believe in a hill called mount calvary
I believe whatever the cost
And when time has surrendered
And earth is no more

Because God Loved Us

God gave His life for all the world. He gave his life for you and all the world. He did it because He love us. What great love my Saviour had for all the world.
 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  _ John 3:16

I Am His, He Is Mine

He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God. -John 8:47

His Words are life to us. We know that we are of God when we hear His Words. When we hear them we trust in Him. Therefore we belong to God. He belongs to us.
If you cannot hear God’s Words, give your heart to Him now. He will come into your heart and live. Then you too can hear His voice each day.
-Brenda
~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*
 Jesus died for you and is waiting for you to give your heart to Him. Invite Him into your heart today by faith. He will be your Lord and Saviour. If you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth, you will be “saved”. You are now a part of the family of God. Let us know if you prayed this prayer and we will rejoice with you.

~Trust~

Thou will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusts in thee. Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting strength: -Isaiah 26:3-4

 

Trust is the key. Job said, thought he slay me yet will I trust him. It’s a promise for all if we keep our mind on Him. Things will go so much better. When we have our mind on Him. Job 13:15 There will be less room in our heart for things of the world. We are more content for we have peace, as the world knows not. Trust in him at all times in all places. Then you will have everlasting strength. Obedience to this command will provide perfect peace. We will have nothing to fear, with God so near. 

 

Blessed are all they that put their trust in him. Psalm 2:12 And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee. -Psalm : 10 Thank you Lord that I can always trust in you for everything…

Fulllness of Christ

And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. John 1:16

Christians have received the fullness of Jesus. Those who reject the salvation which Jesus offers have not received the fullness of Jesus.

For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power.  -Colossians 2:9,10

Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed [is] willing, but the flesh is weak. -Matthew 26:41

Th  Christian can renew our minds to what we have already received through Christ. Our born-again spirit is always willing to do God’s will. It’s our flesh that is the problem.

And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. -Galatians 5:24

Victory over the flesh with its passions and lusts has already been provided for us by Christ through His death. We simply have to appropriate this truth by faith instead of self effort.
