Let the Gift of the Peace of Christ Rule in Your Heart!

Good Morning Precious and Dearly Loved Beloved Saints of Our Abba Father!

“Peace I leave with you; My Peace I give to you.  I do not give as the world gives.  Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” John 14:27.           “I have told you these things so that in me you may have Peace.” John 16:33.              “For He himself is our Peace…” Ephesians 2:14.         “But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us Peace was upon Him, and by His wounds we are healed.” Isaiah 53:5.        “Let the Peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to Peace.” Colossians 3:15.          “Glory to God in the highest, and earth Peace to men on whom His favor rests.” John Luke 2:14.    

All of these verses are stating that Peace is from God and is His great gift to us!    This Peace from God is in the person of Jesus and Jesus is present to us in the person of the Holy Spirit!  The Holy Spirit is our present connection to heaven while we live on the earth.  All of the Spiritual gifts and blessings in heaven have been given to us already and Holy Spirit is the One who reveals and makes real these gifts so we can manifest them on the earth, especially His Peace!   

 The Peace of Christ is a huge gift to us!  Being in peace is the state of being: restful, tranquil, internal quietness, calm, still, serene, content, strife-free, harmonious with God, undisturbed, relaxed, the sense that things are OK at a very deep level, deep sense of satisfaction that we are completely and perfectly loved by God, that we are completely and 100% accepted to God, even in our weakness and sin.    We are at peace with God because Jesus took care of our sin problem by removing and becoming all of our sin, guilt and condemnation and fulfilling the law for us …..   

  The opposite of peace is anxiety, worry, stressful, uneasy, apprehensive, disturbed, tense, fearful, nervous, fearing bad things will happen, agitated, the mind is very noisy and conflicted, hostile, frightened, terror, panic, dread, scared for the worst, be perturbed and filled with dismay, have the gitters, terrified……  This deep sense of unrest is rooted and comes from the enemy!   Many, if not most, sicknesses and diseases come from this deep sense of fear, anxiety and condemnation.  The root of this is the lie that we unaccepted to God, and completely unworthy of His Love, that we are no good, deserving of destruction and wrath.   Of course, this is all the attempt of the enemy to lie to us while he tries to steal, kill and destroy us!

At salvation, the nature of sin is removed, the old wounded heart is removed, and the Father fills us with His Spirit, His new heart, and He even gives to us the mind of Christ!  Of course, these gifts are accessed by the Holy Spirit because the Father “has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.” Ephesians 1:3.   This gift of the Peace of Christ is huge because you are able to receive from the Lord in the Spirit when your heart is at rest in Him. 

 All people struggle at some degree, in receiving and manifesting our full inheritance from the Father!  A heart that is still, at rest, and at complete peace with God, knowing that they are unconditionally loved by God, can receive far better from the Lord.  Every saved person has been given the Gift of Peace in the person of Jesus, manifested by the person of the Holy Spirit!  The Father pours His Love into our heart through the Holy Spirit and in the same way, we receive the Peace of Christ through the Holy Spirit as well.  

 All sin has been removed and forgiven!  All wrath and condemnation has been removed from us by Jesus’ sacrifice!  Jesus fulfilled the law for us, something we could never do on our own!  Jesus nailed the law to the Cross so that we are no longer under the law!   Jesus purchased our peace on the Cross and then we were given the substance of His peace in the person of the Holy Spirit! 

  So we just drink deeply, heavily, continually until His Peace is ruling in our hearts!  Peace is not a concept, principle, theology or a doctrine!  Peace is the person of Jesus in the Holy Spirit in our hearts!  Drink, taste and see that His Peace, Love and Joy is Good!!!  Peace is a fruit of the Spirit, so we can eat of this fruit without limits!  Eat, drink and be merry in the eating and drinking of the Peace of God!!!!   Heaven is filled with the Peace of God and you have been seated in the heavenly realm already, so simply enjoy the gift and environment of Peace in which you already live in, in the Spirit realm!     SHALOM!!!!!!!!
