5-Day series: Praying for God’s Peace: Evening 5 – Peace in His Presence

Rejoice in the righteousness, purity, goodness and holiness of Jesus Christ—all of which He has given to you.

Join Jesus on the mountaintop and let your heart be inspired by God’s call to simply listen to His Son.

Rejoice over God’s generosity and creative majesty visible in every corner of the world.

There are times in the gospels when Jesus gives commands that can confuse us – because they seem downright impossible. The Ten Commandments are hard enough – and we know that we’ll be imperfect in keeping the Law of the Old Testament. That’s why God provided a way out for us in Jesus. So what did Jesus mean in His seemingly impossible commands? Perhaps the truth He wants us to grasp is that He loves us so much that He makes the impossible possible. And we love Him back by allowing Him to help us move in the direction of obedience. 

Rest and rejoice in the salvation Jesus won for you for all eternity.

Reflect on the unstoppable power of God at work in your life.

Rest and receive the promised peace of God tonight.

Come a find strength and renewal as you meditate on the endless provision and love God has for you.

Meditate on this question about Jesus’ unusual origins, and marvel of the truth that He identifies with everyone, including you.

After a tiring day, let the hope of Jesus’ love and salvation fill you once again with joy, peace and deep satisfaction.
