Quote for the day: When Christ died He left a will in which He gave His Soul to His Father, His body to Joseph of Arimathea, His clothes to the soldiers, and his mother to john. But to His disciples, who had left all o follow Him, He left not silver or gold, but something far better – His PEACE – Matthew Henry. Bible Verse: John 14:27 “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” One of the practical proofs of Christianity is that in all ages and nations, and to all sorts and conditions of men, it has brought peace to their hearts, and has satisfied the longings of their souls, because the Gospel message itself is about good will and peace to the earth. He is our peace. (1 Cor.14:33) The peace that God grants is “Divine”, which the world cannot give. In fact the world hates us because we are not of the world (John 15:19) God gives perfect peace to those whose mind is focused on Him. (Isaiah 26:3) While walking on water Apostle Peter could have drowned, but he looked at Jesus and cried and was saved. (Mt.13:30, 31) When our eyes are focused on God our faith increases, because He is the author and perfector of our faith. (Heb.12:2) Without faith we cannot please God. (Heb.11:6) Not only should our eyes, our thoughts also be focused on God’s Word. When we are able to control our actions, we will be able to control our thoughts as well. Prov.16:32 says “He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit (mind) is better than he that takes a city. PASTOR T.M.JOSEPH NEW LIFE MISSION-INDIA
