Jesus is The Prince of Peace

“Therefore, since we have been justified through faith,

we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,”

Luke 22:32

 

Peace with God.

All peace begins and ends there.

Through the work of Christ on the cross, peace with God is possible.

Jesus came to the earth to make peace between God and man possible.

Imagine being in conflict with the Creator of the Universe.

Would you care to guess who would be the loser in that battle?

Maybe you’re thinking:

“Well, I’m not at war with God. I do my thing and He can do His.”

But the truth is, because of Adam’s sin, we were all born in sin.

We were dead in our trespasses and sins.

We were at enmity with God.

Because of that sin, we were, as it were, enemies of God.

Our sin separated us.

Jesus changed that.  

The peace He made possible is more than a temporary truce.

It is an eternal truth!

Unless or until I know that peace, there can no true peace inside me.

Only turmoil, travail and anxiety.

Many will come and offer peace.

But Jesus offered Himself as the Prince of Peace.

He does not simply offer peace, He is Himself peace.

Do you know Him?

Do you have that peace?
