Peace – John 14:27, John 16:33

Luke 1:26-38

You have an adversary, he goes by the name of Satan, sometimes Lucifer, sometimes the Devil.
He is a roaring lion.
He wants to destroy your testimony. He wants to destroy your witness.
He came to steal, to kill and to destroy your testimony, your witness.
One of the things he wants to steal and kill and destroy is your PEACE!
He will do whatever he can to do that.

We live in a world…

We may have sorrow for the night but joy comes in the morning.

Stress, Anxiety, Fear, Anger, Depression

We have the Prince of Peace

Isaiah: He shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. And of His Kingdom and Peace, there will be no end.

I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.

The Psalmist said, “When anxiety was great within me, your consolation (or your comfort) brought me joy. (94:19)

Peter said to cast all your anxieties, cast all your cares, all your worries, all your fears on Him, because He cares for you. He loves you. He cares for you. He will bring you peace because He is the Prince of Peace.

Paul said, Don’t be anxious about anything. No matter what you are going through. By prayer and petition, by prayer and supplication, by prayer and humble thanks to God, present everything to Him because he cares for you.

Jesus said, Come unto me all you who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Paul, in his letter to Timothy, told him that the spirit God gives us does not make us anxious, worrisome, fearful, timid, or angry.
It is rather a spirit of love, power, self-discipline, and self-control.
