LIVE IN PEACE

If you are among  who have accepted Jesus Christ and filled with Holy Spirit, living a peaceful life with all people is the most important thing in your life. When you decide to do something and it  become difficult  to you, you can ask God to give you a solution,   He will answer you.   The Word of God says;  "And the peace of Christ rule in your hearts ..." Colossians 3:15. Following this,  I will give my testimony what I experienced in my life. When  I met difficult things that require to make  decisions, I asked my Lord, He did not wait, He let me to  have an idea of the kind of decision to take.  When  I have peace in my heart, I realized that  the  kind of the decisions given were correct and I take action according to the guidance of God’s word.

Working for justice.
If you are a teacher, a doctor, a leader, businessman, soldier or  doing any work,  you have to do your work  right. By doing so,  you will have peace and calmness in your heart.  You will  also  have the right to trust in God as it is written. "The work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness will be quietness and confidence is always".  Isaiah 32:17. If you do not do so in  justice, you can not have peace nor stability and hope in God's sight  because it is written; "But the wicked are like the troubled sea; meaning it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and waste. No peace for the wicked; says my God".  Isaiah 57: 20-21.           

 A man living  in this world he can not find peace because he has a lot of money, gold, car, very nice house or  multiple items. Peace is not obtained and become available  in hands,  but it is offered by God. "... Have mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord".  2Timothy 1: 2.   "Glory to God in the highest, and peace, good will toward men." (those who he agreed) Luke 2:14. Lived for prescribing the word  of God, God shall  add many years of living in peace.  You will also be acceptable to him, to men, and have a good understanding. "My son, do not forget my law, but let your heart keep my command.  It will lengthen days, and years of life and peace. So shalt thou find favor and good understanding in the sight of God and before man". Proverbs 3: 1- 2, 4.              

The end of the righteous one is peace.
"Watch him very perfect man, look at him upright, for the end of that man is peace".  Psalm 37 : 37. Let's look at Stephen he was a good example to follow because he was a mutineer and upright. when he was stoned, before he died he forgave the killers and died in peace. As it is written, "They were stoning him, begging him, saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit. He knelt down , and cried with a loud voice, Lord forgive this sin. Having said this, he fell asleep ... " Acts 7: 59 - 60. Also our Lord Jesus Christ was persecuted and crucified but he forgave the killers and he died in peace. "And they came to the place called the Skull, there they crucified ... Jesus said, Father, forgive them... " Luke 23: 33 - 34. In order to achieve the ultimate in peace one must persevere in the right  way and avoid sin.  

If anyone have been offended you and if you do not forgive that person  wherever you met him,  you would never have peace. But when you forgave him  you  will have peace. Forgiving the offender is to fulfill God's law as it is written; "For if you forgiven men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses".  Acts 6: 14 - 15 . God wants to dwell in peace with all men who lives the holy life  so that they can see God. Roman 12: 18 - 19.  “Peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord does not have them; See to it that things comes short of the grace of God; root of bitterness springing up causes lest trouble, and many be defiled by it". Hebrew 12: 14 - 15.
