The Lord of Peace

Scripture:

“Now, may the Lord himself, the Lord of peace, pour into you his peace in every circumstance and in every possible way. The Lord’s tangible presence be with you all.”
‭‭2 Thessalonians‬ ‭3:16‬ ‭TPT‬‬

Observation:

In this text, Paul speaks a blessing over the people of Thessalonica.  He prays that the Lord of Peace will pour his peace into every circumstance of their lives and that the Lord’s tangible presence would be with them.  If Jesus is the Lord of peace, then His people should be filled with peace.  Peace is spoken of constantly in the NewTestament and we need it in our lives today more than ever.

Application:

God has provided peace for our lives.  We need to tap into it and begin walking in it.  I know I tend to get stressed out too much and need to be filled with His peace.  My name means “peaceful” and I want to be a carrier of peace everywhere I go.  I want His peace poured into every circumstance and in every other possible way.

Prayer:

Father, fill my life with Your peace.  Help me to walk in Your peace at all times.  I know that comes from time with You and being in Your presence.  Your presence brings me peace in the midst of any storm.  Your presence is life to me.  Let me live in Your presence and walk in Your peace at all times.

Yours Forever,
Jeff
