There is no person that god cannot save!
00:00:05.428 --> 00:00:10.333
There is no promise that god will not keep!
00:00:11.234 --> 00:00:16.306
There is nothing that our god cannot do!

00:00:33.623 --> 00:00:37.861
Take your bibles and turn with me to john's gospel, the 16th
00:00:39.062 --> 00:00:42.332
Chapter. john's gospel, the 16th chapter. you can call the
00:00:42.332 --> 00:00:47.904
Bible the book of peace, shalom. as a matter of fact -
00:00:47.904 --> 00:00:52.842
Author and speaker, pastor, dr. jeremiah johnston, has just
00:00:52.842 --> 00:00:56.880
Produced, edited a brand new study bible called the peace of
00:00:56.880 --> 00:01:02.519
God bible. i am holding one in my hand this morning. it is the
00:01:02.519 --> 00:01:07.824
New king james, which is a very good translation of scripture.
00:01:07.824 --> 00:01:11.394
The uniqueness, and there are many study bibles, but the
00:01:11.394 --> 00:01:15.365
Uniqueness of this study bible is that it traces the peace of
00:01:15.365 --> 00:01:23.206
God through the bible.
00:01:23.206 --> 00:01:24.440
In a world that is filled with so much panic and chaos and
00:01:24.440 --> 00:01:27.310
Confusion, it's a message that the world needs to hear. the
00:01:27.310 --> 00:01:30.713
Message of god's word regarding his peace, and primarily the
00:01:30.713 --> 00:01:34.751
Word peace, shalom, shalom, the hebrew word, which appears over
00:01:34.751 --> 00:01:41.257
600 times in the bible, or a derivative, or its new
00:01:41.257 --> 00:01:44.260
Testament counterpart for peace, arene. but peace is a
00:01:44.260 --> 00:01:48.464
Prominent feature of the bible. in fact, you could say it is
00:01:48.464 --> 00:01:51.768
The message of the bible. how can a person have peace with
00:01:51.768 --> 00:01:58.007
God? how can we know peace with god, and how can we experience
00:01:58.007 --> 00:02:03.780
The peace of god, something deep within? how do we find
00:02:03.780 --> 00:02:09.552
Peace? and when we find it, it seems to be so elusive, when we
00:02:09.552 --> 00:02:15.325
Find it, how can we keep it, this shalom?
00:02:15.325 --> 00:02:21.598
I quote dr. johnston when he said, the supernatural peace of
00:02:21.598 --> 00:02:25.201
God turns our triggers into triumphs. when we explain, or
00:02:25.201 --> 00:02:30.440
Experience rather, god's peace, our pain can become our purpose
00:02:30.440 --> 00:02:36.946
In ministering to others. the scripture says we are comforted
00:02:36.946 --> 00:02:41.284
By the god of all comfort, and with the comfort that we are
00:02:41.284 --> 00:02:43.953
Comforted, the peace that we have, we comfort others. we
00:02:43.953 --> 00:02:48.758
Comfort others.
00:02:48.758 --> 00:02:50.393
Now let me remind you in this series, the christ-centered
00:02:50.393 --> 00:02:52.795
Life, we have been with jesus in the upper room, and he
00:02:52.795 --> 00:02:58.234
Brings a message to his chosen, his disciples, and it's a
00:02:58.234 --> 00:03:02.472
Message that is delivered to us by god's spirit today. and so
00:03:02.472 --> 00:03:08.177
He has finished the passover meal with the disciples, and
00:03:08.177 --> 00:03:12.649
There in the upper room, he institutes the lord's supper,
00:03:12.649 --> 00:03:16.152
Which we are going to observe today. so having finished the
00:03:16.152 --> 00:03:21.624
Meal, they sang a hymn. can you imagine on the night that was
00:03:21.624 --> 00:03:28.631
So dark, on the way to the cross, jesus must have led them
00:03:28.631 --> 00:03:34.070
In a hymn because he gives songs in the night. and so they
00:03:34.070 --> 00:03:38.341
Sang, and then they went out into the night, and jesus
00:03:38.341 --> 00:03:41.911
Begins talking to them on the road, the road to the cross,
00:03:41.911 --> 00:03:45.381
The road to calvary.
00:03:45.381 --> 00:03:48.318
And in the end, in chapter 16 and verse 33, he finishes this
00:03:48.318 --> 00:03:53.723
Message with the disciples, this conversation, and in
00:03:53.723 --> 00:03:57.060
Effect, the words of john 16:33 is a summation and the climax
00:03:57.060 --> 00:04:04.334
Of everything he's been saying in the upper room and onward
00:04:04.334 --> 00:04:08.971
About this christ-centered life. in fact, you could even
00:04:08.971 --> 00:04:13.643
Say that john 16:33 is a summation of the message of the
00:04:13.643 --> 00:04:18.548
Bible. and we're going to take a look at this verse today,
00:04:18.548 --> 00:04:23.720
Because i believe that if you will understand it and receive
00:04:23.720 --> 00:04:28.791
This peace that god has promised us, that you will live
00:04:28.791 --> 00:04:32.195
In triumphant joy and with supernatural peace.
00:04:32.195 --> 00:04:36.232
Sound good? triumphant joy and supernatural peace. what does
00:04:36.232 --> 00:04:44.006
Jesus say? verse 33, “these things i have spoken to you,
00:04:44.006 --> 00:04:49.612
That in me you may have shalom.” he would have said,
00:04:49.612 --> 00:04:56.853
Shalom, hebrew, or even this derivative in aramaic. “and
00:04:56.853 --> 00:05:03.259
Then in this world, you will have tribulation, pressure,
00:05:03.259 --> 00:05:10.900
Stress, crushing weight. but be of good cheer, be courageous. i
00:05:10.900 --> 00:05:19.709
Have overcome the world.”
00:05:19.709 --> 00:05:23.579
Of all the exceeding and precious promises of the bible,
00:05:23.579 --> 00:05:27.850
This is a powerful and most precious one, peace, peace in
00:05:27.850 --> 00:05:38.694
Christ. this is our message, according to acts 10:36, “the
00:05:38.694 --> 00:05:42.532
Good news of peace through our lord jesus christ.” this is our
00:05:42.532 --> 00:05:49.772
Message. this is the message that we deliver constantly,
00:05:49.772 --> 00:05:54.410
Peace delivered in the lord jesus christ.
00:05:54.410 --> 00:05:59.615
And so jesus speaks this timeless, triumphant text. and
00:05:59.615 --> 00:06:05.955
Again, it's a summary of everything. it's a compilation
00:06:05.955 --> 00:06:09.525
In this one verse of all that he's been saying. it's the
00:06:09.525 --> 00:06:12.395
Conclusion. he doesn't promise an easy road, or exemption from
00:06:12.395 --> 00:06:17.333
Trials. quite to the contrary, he says, you're going to have
00:06:17.333 --> 00:06:20.169
Trouble in this world. the suffering is real. jesus knew
00:06:20.169 --> 00:06:28.377
That. he's on his way to the garden of gethsemane. he would
00:06:28.377 --> 00:06:31.214
Sweat drops of blood in pain and suffering and then die in
00:06:31.214 --> 00:06:35.084
Agony and blood upon the cross. he knew suffering, but he
00:06:35.084 --> 00:06:39.021
Earlier said to those disciples, your sorrow, your
00:06:39.021 --> 00:06:41.824
Suffering will be turned to joy because he offers something
00:06:41.824 --> 00:06:46.128
Greater than the tribulation of the world. and that is this
00:06:46.128 --> 00:06:49.632
Triumphant joy and this supernatural peace.
00:06:49.632 --> 00:06:54.637
It's not a peace that the world gives or can the world take it
00:06:54.637 --> 00:06:57.740
Away. jesus said, this is my peace. it's not a peace that
00:06:57.740 --> 00:07:03.179
Depends upon circumstances or successes or pleasures. it's
00:07:03.179 --> 00:07:08.417
Not a peace, the flimsy fleeting peace of just the
00:07:08.417 --> 00:07:11.521
Absence of conflict. how many peace treaties have we signed
00:07:11.521 --> 00:07:15.992
In the world only to be broken? how many times have we tried to
00:07:15.992 --> 00:07:19.095
Make peace in our own personal lives only to see it fall
00:07:19.095 --> 00:07:22.732
Apart? no, jesus says, this is something more. this is a
00:07:22.732 --> 00:07:28.638
Living peace, a lasting peace. it's the shalom of god, which
00:07:28.638 --> 00:07:33.976
In reality means wholeness, completeness, a deep
00:07:33.976 --> 00:07:41.784
Contentment inside. it is resting in the undefeatable
00:07:41.784 --> 00:07:46.756
Truth that jesus has overcome those things that may threaten
00:07:46.756 --> 00:07:52.562
To overcome us. that's the peace, not the absence of
00:07:52.562 --> 00:07:57.600
Problems, but the presence of the savior, the presence of the
00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:02.438
One who overcomes. christ's victory on the cross in the
00:08:02.438 --> 00:08:08.477
Resurrection, this is our peace.
00:08:08.477 --> 00:08:12.782
So how does this work and how do we have it? how do we find
00:08:12.782 --> 00:08:17.019
Peace and keep the peace?
00:08:17.019 --> 00:08:18.354
Well, remember this, peace comes from the words of christ.
00:08:18.354 --> 00:08:24.026
For he says in verse 33, these things i have spoken to you
00:08:24.026 --> 00:08:29.732
That in me you may have peace. peace, god's peace is always
00:08:29.732 --> 00:08:39.575
Vitally connected to god's word. these things have i
00:08:39.575 --> 00:08:46.515
Spoken unto you that in me you may have peace. and not only
00:08:46.515 --> 00:08:52.288
The words of jesus in the upper room and that night on the way
00:08:52.288 --> 00:08:56.025
To the garden, to the cross, but all the words of god's
00:08:56.025 --> 00:08:59.862
Word. the world is constantly changing, but god's word never
00:08:59.862 --> 00:09:07.637
Changes. “the grass withers, the flower fades, but the word
00:09:07.637 --> 00:09:13.075
Of our god will stand forever.” and so jesus says these words,
00:09:13.075 --> 00:09:19.815
This word, this book, this is the voice of god speaking to
00:09:19.815 --> 00:09:25.354
You by his spirit, bringing peace because he has overcome
00:09:25.354 --> 00:09:31.293
The world. peace that is sustainable, peace that is
00:09:31.293 --> 00:09:34.697
Strengthened by his presence through his words.
00:09:34.697 --> 00:09:38.701
When we open god's words, we open up our lives as christians
00:09:38.701 --> 00:09:42.905
To hear directly from god. if you want to know, does god
00:09:42.905 --> 00:09:47.143
Speak? yes, god speaks. he has spoken and his word is truth.
00:09:47.143 --> 00:09:53.382
Peace is promised and it is also personal.
00:09:53.382 --> 00:09:57.486
Notice that jesus said these words that i have spoken unto
00:09:57.486 --> 00:10:00.523
You that in me, in me, you may have peace. you see, peace is a
00:10:00.523 --> 00:10:08.931
Person. it's not some kind of process. it's not a
00:10:08.931 --> 00:10:14.136
Prescription. it's not a pep talk. peace is a person and
00:10:14.136 --> 00:10:20.142
That person is the prince of peace. “his name shall be
00:10:20.142 --> 00:10:24.814
Called wonderful counselor, mighty god, the everlasting
00:10:24.814 --> 00:10:27.516
Father and the prince of peace.” when jesus came to this
00:10:27.516 --> 00:10:33.522
Earth, the angel announced good tidings, good news of great joy
00:10:33.522 --> 00:10:38.260
That will be to all people. peace on earth.

But then secondly, trouble is certain, but temporary. trouble
00:12:25.935 --> 00:12:32.775
Is certain, but as it said many times in the old testament, it
00:12:32.775 --> 00:12:40.516
Came to pass. so trouble comes and trouble goes, and for the
00:12:40.516 --> 00:12:45.688
Christian it's different because jesus has promised, oh
00:12:45.688 --> 00:12:49.124
Yes, there's going to be pain in this world. no one is
00:12:49.124 --> 00:12:54.129
Promised, not a single person is ever promised a pain-free
00:12:54.129 --> 00:13:00.002

It's all going to be great, it's all going to be wonderful,
00:13:13.282 --> 00:13:15.251
That's not what jesus said. jesus said in this world
00:13:15.251 --> 00:13:19.722
There's going to be tribulation. our faith is not
00:13:19.722 --> 00:13:25.094
Exempt from problems, but gives us strength to endure the
00:13:25.094 --> 00:13:27.897
Problems and the peace that goes with it. the world brings
00:13:27.897 --> 00:13:31.967
Us pressure, but christ brings us perspective and wisdom.
00:13:31.967 --> 00:13:37.673
Trouble is here today, but then ultimately it goes. i love what
00:13:37.673 --> 00:13:43.245
Warren wiersbe, the bible teacher, said about christians
00:13:43.245 --> 00:13:46.348
Being in the fire, experiencing persecution. and he said, god
00:13:46.348 --> 00:13:51.220
Always has his hand on the thermostat and his eye on the
00:13:51.220 --> 00:13:54.890
Clock. in other words, god knows how long and how much.
00:13:54.890 --> 00:14:03.465
And you may find yourself in the middle of tribulation right
00:14:03.465 --> 00:14:06.535
Now. trouble is not god's absence, but it is the promise
00:14:06.535 --> 00:14:11.840
And the potential to experience his peace at a whole nother

00:14:48.177 --> 00:14:54.516
But it didn't come to stay, it came to pass.
00:14:54.516 --> 00:14:58.620
And ultimately all this, every tear will be dried, it's all
00:14:58.620 --> 00:15:03.025
Passing away. this is why you want to stay centered in
00:15:03.025 --> 00:15:06.128
Christ. this is why you want to make sure that jesus is in his
00:15:06.128 --> 00:15:12.234
Rightful place of preeminence in your life. because whatever
00:15:12.234 --> 00:15:18.407
Life throws at us, and life can be cruel, whatever happens,
00:15:18.407 --> 00:15:23.979
Circumstances, accidents, problems, pressures, and
00:15:23.979 --> 00:15:29.284
There's fear and there's pain, and yet jesus said, this is his
00:15:29.284 --> 00:15:33.689
Promise, this is the shalom of god, that regardless of the
00:15:33.689 --> 00:15:37.793
Circumstances, my peace i give to you. the world gives you
00:15:37.793 --> 00:15:43.132
Trouble, this world is a broken world. it is cursed by the
00:15:43.132 --> 00:15:49.171
Consequences, and the effect, and the impact of sin.
00:15:49.171 --> 00:15:52.975
We live in this world. as long as we are in this world,
00:15:52.975 --> 00:15:55.944
We are subject to temptation. we are subject to test.
00:15:55.944 --> 00:15:59.381
We are subjuect to trials. it is going to happen.
00:15:59.381 --> 00:16:03.752
Jesus said that. in the world, tribulation.
00:16:03.752 --> 00:16:08.557
But he said, in me, peace. in me there is peace.
00:16:08.557 --> 00:16:17.332
He said, i have, not will. he said, i have overcome the
00:16:17.332 --> 00:16:22.604
World. he's looking at the cross. he's looking at his own
00:16:22.604 --> 00:16:25.174
Death, a terrible death of crucifixion. he's about to
00:16:25.174 --> 00:16:28.644
Sweat blood. and yet he said, i've overcome the world.
00:16:28.644 --> 00:16:34.016
Because he has overcome the world, he said, you will
00:16:34.016 --> 00:16:37.553
Overcome the world. his victory is complete. what is that
00:16:37.553 --> 00:16:40.756
Victory? it is the victory of the cross. the victory of his
00:16:40.756 --> 00:16:46.328
Death for our death. it is the victory of the resurrection.
00:16:46.328 --> 00:16:52.401
When christ died on the cross, he defeated sin, sorrow,
00:16:52.401 --> 00:16:56.839
Suffering, death, and hell. it's already done. you say,
00:16:56.839 --> 00:17:00.909
Well, it's all still around. everything that is over you,
00:17:00.909 --> 00:17:06.181
Christ is over that. his victory is complete.
00:17:06.181 --> 00:17:12.020
Here's what we mean by that. 2 corinthians 2:14, we are always
00:17:12.020 --> 00:17:17.593
Triumphing in jesus christ. it's victory, victory, and more
00:17:17.593 --> 00:17:23.198
Victory. it is victory in jesus. and his triumph then
00:17:23.198 --> 00:17:28.971
Becomes our testimony that because christ has won, we win.
00:17:28.971 --> 00:17:37.513
His victory is our victory.
00:17:37.513 --> 00:17:40.649
In the book of revelation, describing those martyred for
00:17:40.649 --> 00:17:43.152
Their faith, revelation 12:11, “they overcame him, satan, and
00:17:43.152 --> 00:17:48.524
The power of evil. they overcame him by the blood of
00:17:48.524 --> 00:17:52.427
The lamb and the word of their testimony. and they loved not
00:17:52.427 --> 00:17:57.432
Their lives, even unto death.” they were willing to lay their
00:17:57.432 --> 00:18:00.302
Lives on the line in full commitment. therefore, they are
00:18:00.302 --> 00:18:05.741
The overcomers.
00:18:05.741 --> 00:18:08.043
No wonder jesus said, this will bring you continual,
00:18:08.043 --> 00:18:11.780
Conspicuous, contagious joy in your life. be of good cheer. i
00:18:11.780 --> 00:18:16.652
Mean, this is not a grin and bear it kind of thing. it's a
00:18:16.652 --> 00:18:22.824
Grace and bear it. because god gives grace with his peace.
00:18:22.824 --> 00:18:28.230
You know, there are certain orders in the scripture that
00:18:28.230 --> 00:18:31.333
Are constant. for example, the bible says, “believe in the new
00:18:31.333 --> 00:18:35.804
Testament and be baptized.” it's never reversed. it's
00:18:35.804 --> 00:18:40.809
Always believe first and then be baptized. if you're baptized
00:18:40.809 --> 00:18:44.313
Before you believe, you didn't get baptized, you just got
00:18:44.313 --> 00:18:46.615
Dunked in water or sprinkled or something. it's “believe in the
00:18:46.615 --> 00:18:50.152
Lord jesus christ and you will be saved.” and then be
00:18:50.152 --> 00:18:53.455
Baptized. it's that order always. another one is
00:18:53.455 --> 00:18:55.891
Repentance and faith. in the scripture, it's not faith and
00:18:55.891 --> 00:19:00.929
Repentance. now, faith and repentance are really two sides
00:19:00.929 --> 00:19:03.632
Of the same coin. you can't believe without repenting, you
00:19:03.632 --> 00:19:05.968
Can't repent without believing. but in the scripture, it's
00:19:05.968 --> 00:19:10.706
Always repent and believe. jesus said, “unless you repent,
00:19:10.706 --> 00:19:17.980
You will perish.”
00:19:17.980 --> 00:19:20.282
And then there's another order that is irrevocable and you
00:19:20.282 --> 00:19:23.418
Know what it is? grace and peace. you see it that way
00:19:23.418 --> 00:19:29.658
Every single time because there's no peace apart from the
00:19:29.658 --> 00:19:34.296
Grace of god. the gift of god. grace means gift, essentially.
00:19:34.296 --> 00:19:39.501
So when you experience god's grace, you receive god's peace.
00:19:39.501 --> 00:19:43.372
And now you have peace with god. we are justified, made
00:19:43.372 --> 00:19:47.709
Righteous. and therefore we have peace with god. and not
00:19:47.709 --> 00:19:54.883
Only do we therefore then have peace with god, but we have the
00:19:54.883 --> 00:19:58.453
Peace of god.
00:19:58.453 --> 00:19:59.621
What paul talked about in philippians 4, when he says
00:19:59.621 --> 00:20:05.460
That “the peace of god, which is beyond explanation,
00:20:05.460 --> 00:20:09.364
Comprehension, understanding, the peace of god, will guard
00:20:09.364 --> 00:20:13.669
Your hearts and minds through jesus christ our lord.” and
00:20:13.669 --> 00:20:18.106
Then he went on to say, speaking of the god of peace
00:20:18.106 --> 00:20:21.009
Who guides us, that god's peace, god himself, his peace
00:20:21.009 --> 00:20:27.683
Will guide us. so listen to this. you've got the peace of
00:20:27.683 --> 00:20:31.720
God that will guard you and the god of peace who will guide
00:20:31.720 --> 00:20:35.524
You. you have him.
00:20:35.524 --> 00:20:37.359
Peace is not just a principle, but a person. it is the
00:20:37.359 --> 00:20:43.165
Supernatural, supernal, eternal peace that only god can give.
00:20:43.165 --> 00:20:49.237
It's shalom. and it's a result of what we are remembering
00:20:49.237 --> 00:20:54.710
Today and every day, what christ has done for us, his
00:20:54.710 --> 00:20:58.246
Blood, his body that is broken, that is given for us.
00:20:58.246 --> 00:21:02.851
The first word out of the mouth of the lord jesus, when he
00:21:02.851 --> 00:21:08.490
Spoke with his disciples after the resurrection, you know what
00:21:08.490 --> 00:21:11.927
It is? you know what it is? he held up a nail-scarred hand and
00:21:11.927 --> 00:21:16.665
Blessed them with this word, shalom. first word right out of
00:21:16.665 --> 00:21:22.904
The tomb to the disciples, shalom. this is how we triumph
00:21:22.904 --> 00:21:30.846
In our trials and with our testimony. jesus won, and
00:21:30.846 --> 00:21:34.349
Therefore, so do you. he said, i have overcome the world.
00:21:34.349 --> 00:21:38.153
So today, if you're worried, if you're fearful, if you're
00:21:38.153 --> 00:21:40.422
Fretful, if you're discouraged, if you're despondent, if you're
00:21:40.422 --> 00:21:43.658
Dealing with problems that you can't explain or problems that
00:21:43.658 --> 00:21:48.463
You can't resolve, center your life on him, heads up. he said,
00:21:48.463 --> 00:21:54.069
Take heart. take heart. be of good cheer because i have
00:21:54.069 --> 00:22:01.943
Overcome the world. you have my peace.
00:22:01.943 --> 00:22:06.014
And oh, yes, this isn't just a suggestion, it's a command.
00:22:06.014 --> 00:22:11.019
It's a promise, but with this promise is a command to keep.
00:22:11.019 --> 00:22:19.161
And so in obedience to our lord, you see, it's an
00:22:19.161 --> 00:22:23.632
Invitation to trust him. that's what it is. it's an invitation
00:22:23.632 --> 00:22:31.973
To trust him. it's always about god's truth that brings trust,
00:22:31.973 --> 00:22:39.548
And that's why jesus says in verse 31, if you've got your
00:22:39.548 --> 00:22:42.417
Bible open still, i hope you do. he's walking with these
00:22:42.417 --> 00:22:46.888
Disciples and he says, do you believe now? now do you
00:22:46.888 --> 00:22:53.094
Believe? that's the question every one of us must answer. do
00:22:53.094 --> 00:22:58.900
You believe this? now do you believe?
00:22:58.900 --> 00:23:05.240
Let his word guard your heart. let his presence calm your
00:23:05.240 --> 00:23:08.410
Fears. let his victory give you peace because jesus is the lord
00:23:08.410 --> 00:23:11.713
Of peace. there's serenity in the trinity. god is the god of
00:23:11.713 --> 00:23:18.119
Peace, god the father. jesus is the prince of peace. the holy
00:23:18.119 --> 00:23:22.090
Spirit gives us the fruit of the spirit which is love and
00:23:22.090 --> 00:23:24.793
Joy and what? peace.
00:23:24.793 --> 00:23:28.697
And so stand tall. get your head up. get your shoulders
00:23:28.697 --> 00:23:31.800
Back. get your chin up and take heart. don't be despondent.
00:23:31.800 --> 00:23:38.740
Don't be discouraged, jesus says, because i win and you
00:23:38.740 --> 00:23:42.878
Win. we still win. we keep winning because christ has won
00:23:42.878 --> 00:23:50.385
The victory for us. “therefore, my beloved brothers and
00:23:50.385 --> 00:23:54.823
Sisters, be steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in
00:23:54.823 --> 00:24:00.495
The work of the lord, for you know your labor in the lord is
00:24:00.495 --> 00:24:03.865
Not in vain.”
00:24:03.865 --> 00:24:07.669
So with heads bowed and eyes closed, hear the words of
00:24:07.669 --> 00:24:14.476
Jesus. in fact, let me encourage you right now. if you
00:24:14.476 --> 00:24:19.848
Will, just put your hand over your heart as a signal that
00:24:19.848 --> 00:24:25.487
You're all in on what we're about to pray. earlier jesus
00:24:25.487 --> 00:24:34.863
Said, “don't let your heart be troubled.” stop letting your
00:24:34.863 --> 00:24:38.266
Heart be troubled. “you believe in god, believe also in me.” i
00:24:38.266 --> 00:24:46.408
Mean, the worst thing that happens to us is we die and go
00:24:46.408 --> 00:24:48.610
To heaven. so over your heart and just breathe deeply the
00:24:48.610 --> 00:25:00.789
Peace of god. god's shalom. the savior's shalom.
00:25:00.789 --> 00:25:09.464
And pray along with me. lord, we're so thankful for your
00:25:09.464 --> 00:25:16.071
Supernatural, eternal peace. we know we live in a world filled
00:25:16.071 --> 00:25:26.748
With tribulation, wars and rumors of war, violence and
00:25:26.748 --> 00:25:31.920
Death, hate, a place where tragedies happen, accidents
00:25:31.920 --> 00:25:37.492
Happen, bad things happen, cancer, disease. lord, we know
00:25:37.492 --> 00:25:42.697
We live in a world like that and it's frightening sometimes.
00:25:42.697 --> 00:25:49.270
We deal with our worries and our fears and our anxieties and
00:25:49.270 --> 00:25:52.741
Even our doubts and unbelief. thank you for a peace that the
00:25:52.741 --> 00:25:59.347
World didn't give us and the world can't take away. fill us
00:25:59.347 --> 00:26:06.054
With this peace as we walk in your word with you. teach us to
00:26:06.054 --> 00:26:13.128
Trust you when we're triggered that we might be triumphant.
00:26:13.128 --> 00:26:19.834
Let your peace guard our hearts and our minds through jesus
00:26:19.834 --> 00:26:23.772
Christ our lord.
00:26:23.772 --> 00:26:28.109
Pray something like this. lord, strengthen my faith. lord, fill
00:26:28.109 --> 00:26:37.352
Me with your shalom. and with the comfort that i am comforted
00:26:37.352 --> 00:26:45.060
With your peace, lord, may i be a peacemaker to those all
00:26:45.060 --> 00:26:48.897
Around me who need your peace, who need hope in you. and lord,
00:26:48.897 --> 00:26:56.604
One more thing, we stand firm. we stay strong. we stay calm.
00:26:56.604 --> 00:27:01.810
We stay courageous by your grace because of your spirit.
00:27:01.810 --> 00:27:07.415
Because we know that our victory is because of your
00:27:07.415 --> 00:27:10.552
Victory. in jesus' name we pray, amen.
