OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY
Nothing tangible can be achieved in a chaotic atmosphere, organisation, family or mind. This is why peace is very important. There are factors that can guarantee peace in the life of an individual, particularly a child of God. The first is genuine salvation. Sin brought about the troubles that man encountered right from the Garden of Eden. Proverbs 28:1 says:
The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as lion.
Thus, whoever desires peace must seek the Author of salvation, Jesus Christ. We see this in our memory verse for today, as well as in Matthew 11:28, in which Jesus says:
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Apart from being born again (John 3:3,5), we must learn the ways of the Lord. He said that we should take His yoke of meekness upon ourselves and learn it through Him. Another thing we must learn is contentment. (1 Timothy 6:6) says godliness with contentment is great gain. Many people lack peace because they are not content with what they have. It is unfortunate that many so-called children of God are guilty of this; they dabble in some ungodly acts just to gain the material things of this world, Believers must beware! As good as wealth is, it does not satisfy. Ecclesiastes 5:10 says:
He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver; nor he that loveth abundance with increase: this is also vanity.
We can obtain contentment by simply enjoying the blessings of God as they come and giving glory to Him for them (Ecclesiastes 5:18-20, Psalm 103:1-5). Philippians 4:5-6 cautions believers thus:
Let your moderation be known unto all men…Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
In this Scripture, we see other factors necessary to obtain peace. You have to be moderate in your lifestyle, without being anxious for anything. You must also learn to cast your cares upon God because He is more than able to take them up for you.
PRAYER POINT: Father, let Your peace that passes all understanding rule my heart from today, in the mighty name of Jesus.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalms 23-30
