Peace Is Yours For the Asking

-





The mind is a very important thing to waste. The enemy attacks us in our mind, he desires to rob our peace. Therefore we have to guard our mind. Paul reminds us in Philippians 2:16 we have the mind of Christ. We should think like Christ think, having a Christ-like attitude. When the enemy comes in like a flood, we have to be like Jesus and declare the scriptures. Satan tried to tempt Jesus when He was in the wilderness and to place doubt in His mind by saying "If you are the Son of God", however Jesus boldly said to him, it is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but every word that comes from the mouth of God. God's word can overthrow our enemy, Satan. Whether it's through family, friends or love ones, the enemy will use any tactic to try to shake our peace.  Refuse to allow the enemy to steal your peace, He is subtle and cunning, shake him off! Every time the enemy attacks me, I shake it off and move forward. In spite of everything else moving, God's promise of peace will never change (Isaiah 54:10).


We have to stand firm in Christ, rely on His promises and know the peace of God which passeth all understanding shall keep our hearts and mind through Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Following Christ's is the way to real peace, thinking Godly thoughts, having our minds center on Him.  God is greater than our understanding. He can give us such an awesome peace if we keep our minds stayed on Him, and meditate on His word our mind can be renewed. The bible reminds us in Philippians 4:8, to meditate on things that are true, noble, pure, just, lovely and of good report. We must exercise our faith in Christ by believing God's Word. 


Memory Scripture: 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. John 14:27 


Prayer: Father in Heaven, help us to know that You will keep us in perfect peace, if we keep our mind stayed on You. Help us to always trust in You. Lord if we ask anything in Your name, You will do it, give us peace beyond human understanding, and we thank You in advance for it. In the mighty name of Jeshua.  Amen!


Shabbat Shalom!!!

God is the Architect

Hello Beloveds, I know it has been a while since I have written a post, I've been on a sort of blog-hiatus. I've been spending time soul searching, reflecting, and in hope and eager expectation of rebuilding my new endeavors from the last chapter to my next one. After brainstorming, I had to prioritize my life-values goals and assess my life's purpose. Regardless of who or where you are one must prioritize discovering their purpose in life. Psalm 57:2 (AMP) says, I cry out to God Most High, who accomplishes all things on my behalf for He completes my purposes. We must trust God's divine plan and let Him be our guide knowing God is the Chief Architect and Master Builder of everything. God will take us through construction sites to shape us for His purposes. God sees the big picture. He knows the plans that He has for us, He has a specific plan for each one of us. God’s plan for our life must be consulted with the chief architect, God Himself; the designer, and

Today's Reflection-Wounds of Gossip

-
Once upon a time, an old man spread rumors that his neighbor was a thief. As a result, the young man was arrested and put behind bars for no fault of his own. Days later, the poor man was proven innocent. After being released, he sued the old man for wrongly accusing him.  In court, the old man told the judge, ‘ They were just random comments, they did not harm anyone.’ The judge, before passing sentence on the case, told the old man,  ‘write all the bad things you said about him on a piece of paper. Cut it up into little pieces and on the way home, throw the pieces of paper out of your car window. Tomorrow, you come back to hear the sentence.’   The next day, the judge told the old man,  ‘Before receiving the sentence, I want you to go out and gather up all the pieces of paper that you threw out of your car window yesterday.  The old man said,  ‘I cannot do that. The wind spread them all over the place and I will not know where to find them . "Then the judge replied,  ‘The s

Psalms 91:1-4 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 2 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. 3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. 4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
