John 14:27
Jesus said ” Peace, I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Devotion.
The peace that Jesus gives to us surpasses all understanding, because this peace comes from Creator God.
The peace of Jesus keeps us from worry and fear of the future, because we know that the Lord holds the future in His Hand. So our faith and trust is in Him, because we know that we can depend on Jesus in every circumstance to provide for us, sustain us and strengthen us, and make us victorious.
Prayer (for you)
Heavenly Father,
Thank You for Your peace that You gives to us through Jesus Christ, my Saviour.
And for Your salvation so rich and free to everyone who comes to You seeking to be saved from sin and destruction.
Lord Jesus, You tell us not to worry about anything, but to bring everything to You in prayer, and You will hear us, sustain us, protect us and strengthen us.
And we will be victorious in You, because You have been victorious over sin and the arch-enemy of our soul, and so we will be victorious as well, as long as we hold on to You, have have faith and trust in You.
O Lord, I humbly ask You to forgive me and cleanse me from every sin, and cover me with Your Robe of righteousness and Your garment of Salvation.
Again I thank You, praise You for Your amazing grace and Your peace that surpasses all understanding.
I love You with all my heart, soul and mind.
In Your precious name, Lord Jesus. Amen.
Hymn.
Be still, my soul the Lord is on thy side.
Leave to thy God to order and provide.
In every change He faithful will remain.
Be still, my soul; thy best. thy heavenly Friend.
Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end.
2.
Be still my soul; thy God doth undertake.
To guide the future as He has the past.
Thy hope, thy confidence let nothing shake.
All now mysterious shall be bright at last.
Be still, my soul; the waves and winds still know.
His voice who ruled them while He dwelt below.
3.
Be still my soul; the hour is hastening on.
When we shall be forever with the Lord.
When disappointment, grief, and fear are gone.
Sorrow forgot, love’s purest joys restored.
Be still, my soul; when change and tears are past.
All safe and blessed we shall meet at last.
Praise the Lord!
