“These things I have spoken unto you, that in Me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” John 16:33
This world and all of its systems offer us no peace at all, none whatsoever. Governments cannot give us peace, insurance cannot provide us peace, and jobs and family are incapable of securing our peace. Yet we now have the peace of the only One Who ever overcame the world, Jesus Christ. We now have His Holy Spirit within us teaching and strengthening us in all things! We are now healed by His stripes. Jesus came so that we might have an abundant life. Jesus rebukes the devour for our sakes and there is now no weapon that has been formed against us that will prosper. Our needs are now met according to His riches and glory. Anything and everything that pertains to life and to godliness we now have through Jesus, these Truths are now the peace that keeps us! It doesn’t matter if we understand it, the peace of God passes understanding, and through Christ the blessings of God overtake us, because we have been chosen and empowered by God to accepted Jesus as Lord. Through Christ we are a chosen generation and we are a royal priesthood!
Through Christ we are every bit as sure as Jesus was that we are going to spend eternity with our Father. We now have His exact same peace that Jesus has regarding His salvation. Peter had this peace, read Acts 12:2-7. Herod had killed James, and the Jewish masses loved it, so Herod decided that he was going to kill Peter as well. Herod threw him in jail, surrounded him with guards and Peter just slept. He slept, and just the day before James was murdered, and Peter slept so soundly that when the Angel of the Lord came to rescue him, the Angel had to strike Peter to wake him up! Now that is an assured peace that only our Father can give! This peace is for each and every believer, there is no circumstance the world has that can move or shake it, and it’s for us all and it shall keep us!

“The Lord is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me? Psalm 118:6 Jesus has even provided us with His own good cheer to enjoy during the tribulations. “And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have My joy fulfilled in themselves.” John 17:13 We enjoy and are one with all of God: all of His fullness, all of His strength, all of His faith, all of His joy, all of His love, all of His peace, all of His knowledge, all of His wisdom, and all of His joy!

Excellent point.
Remember: Jesus was a successful carpenter and most of the Apostles were highly successful businessmen. God not only wants you to be rich, he demands it.
We have a divided country: those who concoct left wing crybaby arguments to disguise their inability to work hard to make money, and those of us who apply ourselves to the art of creating wealth, and who enjoy the abundant fruits of our success.
I will share the secrets to my success with whomever seeks it ready for success. The Lord hath commanded it.
