The Lord Reigns

 
 " This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it."

 
Peace
 John14:27

Peace comes and goes in our everyday activites but seldom do we get a peace where we can say that now peace is here to stay. There is another peace that comes through knowing Jesus Christ and His saving love. This peace is not an elusive, inconsistent peace that comes and goes but it is a peace that becomes a permanent foundation in our hearts as a preparation for the eternal peace to come to those who have accepted Jesus Christ into their hearts. This peace is a peace with God, the only peace that will last forever. This peace can come to you only through Jesus Christ, God's only son. Ask Jesus into your life and receive the peace that goes beyond all human understanding and reasoning. Here's what to do to prepare your heart for Jesus to enter in:

  1. In a quiet place, simply talk to Jesus and tell Him you are here and want to talk to Him. Tell Him you are fed up and sorry for the sins in your life and want to put them behind you and run far away from them. Jesus said "unless you repent you will all likewise perish" Luke 13:3 
  2. Believe that "Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried and that He rose again the third day 1 Corinthians 15:3-4
  3. Trust in Jesus as your personal Saviour and Lord. "If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead you will be saved. Rom 6:23 
To some this may be all too confusing, too absurd, too simple or just not necessary. What do I need Jesus for? I have a good life, family, friends, money and a nice place to live. I can take care of myself and determine my own destiny and do not need a Jesus whom I can't even see. 

Dear friend:
When we die there are only two destinies out of this world. One destiny is hell and the other is heaven. At the end of times, both the dead and the living, will all brought to that fork in the road. This can happen at any time since at the time we die we are only a short time away from the end of the world. To God one day is like a thousand. At the end of times, Jesus, the judge, will judge us and send those on his right to heaven and those on His left to Hell. John 5:25-29--Daniel 12:1-2

So the time is short. If your life is demanded of you today you will in a very short time stand before Jesus, the Son of God to be judged. 

Many people have already received Jesus Christ into their lives and have become members of "The Kingdom of God". This kingdom is here on earth already, preparing for for that final day when it will be taken up into the new heaven. You don't have to wait to get a taste of heaven since you can get that taste here and now in that kingdom here on earth in preparation for the final day. Even as we speak God is gathering together a massive throng of His people from the farthest corners of the world to march to it's final destination of heaven. 

The word of God clearly says that those who do not believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God will be blinded to the truth and all of this will seem like rubbish to them. To find out if this is all really true we have to go to the only source of truth in this world and that is the bible. Read it each day and listen to what God is saying. God will not disappoint you. He will lead you out of this world doomed to destruction into a heavenly kingdom. 

For a peace that lasts search the source of all truth, the Holy Bible.

  1. When Jesus comes into your heart and life, let him take full control and He who is faithful and just will transform you into a new creation to be presented without spot on that final day. At last, true peace will become a reality.
  2. Join a church and a bible study to begin searching God's promises and truths and join with the many other brothers and sisters in Christ who make up that one body of believers, the body of Christ, the one true church.
  3. Pray each day to Jesus like you would talk to a best friend and listen when He speaks into your heart.
  4. You will begin an awesome one way journey to the very gates of Heaven where Jesus will be waiting to welcome you into eternal peace.
