Deep Peace

By Adeshola Abraham 

Romans 5:1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

The Bible teaches that life apart from Christ has no deep peace.

This emptiness has been evident throughout history, even in ancient times when primitive cultures, sensing alienation from the powers above, lived in fear and cringing, believing that storms, earthquakes and floods were manifestations of divine disapproval.

Many of us today have a similar acute awareness that our lives are not right. 

But when we come to Jesus Christ and put our trust in Him, the Bible says we have peace. The peace that Jesus is giving to us here is a peace that was purchased at the price of His own blood. We are responsible for living in the light of the great provision God has given to us in Jesus Christ as our peace.

If you struggle with anxiety, life can seem like a battle. But God understands the extent of your worry. Even in the darkest nights of the soul, the God of all peace is with you and for you in Jesus name. 

I urge you today to embrace these words of the Apostle Peter in 1 Peter 5:6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Good Morning, happy Sunday and a blessed new week.
