Follow Jesus And Find Peace!!

in #steemchurch7 years ago

Jesus stated,

“If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself
and take up his cross and follow me”
Mark 8:34

If we want to have peace, we need to quit following different voices; we should be God pleasers, not man pleasers, and we should take after Jesus on a day to day basis.
Chase after peace,it should be your aim since satan will distract you by getting you occupied with different exercises
that won't produce good fruit in your life.

Today, guidance is anything but difficult to get from psychics,they may give data that appears to make sense, yet it won't create enduring peace in a man's life.

To be a disciple of Jesus means to study His teachings, emulate His life, and accurately analyze the Word of Truth.

2 Timothy 2:15
"Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth."

We will have God's power to experience our lives well if we commit our undivided attention to God's Word and enable Jesus to change us by following the peace that only he can give.

Peace is our right from Jesus, however we need to decide to follow Him day by day.

Colossians 3:15
"Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful."

This verse shows us that peace is to be the "umpire" in our lives, settling each issue that needs a choice. To pick up and keep up peace in our lives, we may need to figure out how to say no to a couple of things.
For instance, if we don't feel peace about something, we ought to not to go ahead and do it.
Also, if we don't have peace while we are accomplishing something, at that point we shouldn't hope to have peace after we have done it.

Colossians 3:15 says to let the peace from Christ "rule" in our souls.
The presence of peace encourages us choose and settle with finality all inquiries that emerge in our psyches. If you let the Word have its home in your heart and mind, it will give you knowledge and insight and wisdom

Colossians 3:16
"Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts."

You won't need to ponder, Should I or shouldn't I?
Remember also that in Ephesians 2:14

For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility,

The above scriptures tells us that Jesus Christ is our peace, so what other decision do you need to take to follow him and experience everlasting change.
