Made for More Peace.
I always thought it curious that God promises peace.
But also, says that “he did not come to bring peace but the sword” .
I always wondered why if there was supposed to be peace there was so much viloence in the O.T...
But the more I thought about it.
The more I watched Star Wars, the more I understood that there are two sides and the two sides will always be against each other.
Jesus brought a sword, b/c he chose to
stand against injustice,
against people who took advantage of others,
and to stand in for people who couldn’t stand up for themselves.
The likes of James and Paul tell us we ought to have peace if we claim Jesus as our Savior.
B/c afterall He is the Prince of Peace.
He has already WON THE WAR.
When I worked in Flagstaff In my job with Roger at the Thrift Store I didn’t feel peace.
I thought I’m helping people!
Why do I not feel peace!
Why isn’t there peace?
In my job at Kentucky Road I did not feel peace.
I thought I’m serving God why do I not feel peace?
Why isn’t there peace?
“In my career (I’m calling that for you to understand, it’s my life calling) I just couldn’t feel peace.”
[Shortly] Talk about the difference between the kind of peace I didn’t feel working construction and the kind of peace I didn’t feel in these other circumstances.
Construction- Peace: I wasn’t doing what God had for me.
Others- The people were ruining life (God’s good things).
Talk about the peace I started to feel in Texas.
There were things that tried to steal it but God was teaching me it wasn’t about outward things (how things were going) but instead what the temperature was on the inside of me.
B/c I know I’m made for more PEACE.
We can’t control all of our circumstances
Perfect Job
Boss
Clients/Customers
Parents
We can’t control how our spouse acts or responds
If our kids keep saying our names over and over and over again
Where we find ourselves living…
Things we own
Disabilities/Diseases/Illnesses
but we can control who we put our trust in.
We are MADE FOR MORE PEACE and the only way WE…
We experience true peace by trusting Christ with everything.
In the Bible Peace=
Wholeness
Completeness
Lacking nothing
We truly lack nothing when we have said, “Jesus Christ, I am trusting you.
With everything:
I have
I have been
I am
I will be
I have been
says
Remember when Jesus says “I will not let you be tempted with more than you can handle” why?
Why is that?
No temptation is too great no trial is too big...
We can go through all of these things if we are focused on the WHO not the WHAT that will make us complete, whole.
Adam and Eve’s completeness was broken, their peace lost once they stopped trusting God w/ everything!
The earth has been in unrest and non-peace ever since then.
We have been tirelessly trying to restitch it ever since.
But when JEsus came and lived a perfect life and died a perfect death.
He gave us the one gift that could bring rest to our souls.
He gave us the one thing we needed to rest.
RECONCILLIATION with our CREATOR!
If we are reconcilled to God we should have peace.
Because that means we’ve trusted God with our lives.

Relationships

Jesus is the PRINCE OF PEACE.
PEACE IS MORE POWERFUL THAN ANY STORM THAT COMES YOUR WAY.
This is NOT a passive passage.
This PAUL telling us do what I’m saying, be proactive
1 Timothy “Take hold”
HE IS ESSENTIALLY SAYING “TAKE HOLD OF THIS PEACE
and God will guard your heart & mind in a way you cannot fathom.
The way HE covers you may be different everytime but none-the-less He will cover you in peace.
and God will guard your heart & mind in a way you cannot fathom.
The way HE covers you may be different everytime but none-the-less He will cover you in peace.
Find your completness in Him and He will guard your heart.
Let’s look at a story that will illustrate what happens when we don’t put our full trust, when we don’t find our wholeness in Chirst.
When we think of peace
In we see
THIS IS THE STORY OF OUR LIVES!
ISN’T it!
Don’t we yell, “LORD!
WE’RE PERISHING!!!!”
SAVE US!
DO YOU CARE!!
ARE YOU THERE??
WHEN WE FIND OUR Peace IN CHRIST THIS DOES does 3 things FOR US:
Finding our peace in Jesus KEEPS THE HEART FROM FEAR.
What do we see out of the disciples?
Immense fear!
This is where it all starts, the accusations, the doubt the lack of peace!
