“Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” John 14:27
Jesus gave us His complete and perfect peace, and Jesus’ peace is God’s perfect peace. Jesus is God and God is Jesus and everything that Jesus has, He has given to us, and there is nothing in the world that could equal His peace, and we now have it keeping our hearts and minds! Think about Jesus’ peace and the immense power of it. He is God, He has been God from the beginning and He freely gave up His godly state to come to earth as a man. He came to take on every sin and sickness that the world and all of its inhabitants would ever have. He knew that those whom He had created would kill Him and He knew that it would be by the horrific act of being crucified on the Cross. He knew that before He would be crucified that they were going to beat Him so badly that He will not even be recognized as a man. He knew that He was going to be thrown into Hell. And yet the greatest thing that Jesus knew, was that He had the perfect peace that He would be raised from the dead and restored again to His former glory and honor in Heaven with God. “And now, O Father, glorify Thou Me with Thine own self with the glory which I had with Thee before the world was.” John 17:5 Jesus also had the peace that He wouldn’t mess up while He was here as a man, even though He was going to be tempted in every way that men could ever be tempted. “For we have not an High Priest which cannot be touched with the feelings of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.” Hebrews 4:15 Now this is some kind of peace and Jesus gave it to us, this is peace that passes all understanding and we now have it! And we have the Holy Spirit within us insuring we grow to full maturity in it!
Today is the day that our Father perfectly and completely keeps our hearts and minds in His full and complete peace. Because we are now one with Him through Christ and as our Father is at peace, so are we, even in this world!
