Know Peace

Know Peace

 Peace is a product of love. Only through deep love will you discover God and in God there is peace. God is love. Pour out love with legs one to another and don’t expect anything in return. When we love with conditions attached, our unmet expectations can create inner turmoil and feelings of resentment. A mind without the security of knowing God is grieved. It has no lasting peace.

 Those who love one another are heard laughing often. Peace of mind is better when you have a laughter-filled life. Laughter is a great antidote for stress and releases hormones that help us relax. (Ecclesiastes 3:4) “A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance”

Instead of worrying about the past or panicking about the future, enjoy the here and now while looking toward a perfected eternal life. Jesus said, “your time is always.” That’s all we have — this moment in time.

Romans 13:11 “And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. 

2 Corinthians 6:2 “(...have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)”

 When we fully concentrate on the present, the concerns of the past and worries of the future can’t stagger us. (Psalms 118:24) “This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” There are some things that you just cannot change, no matter how hard you try. 

Tribulation generates patience, be mindful and enjoy your Christian life in the moment with love, joy, and understanding. (Romans 2:7) “ To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life: (James 1:4) “But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.”

The most important ways to achieve peace of mind involve holding fast your belief. Life is uncertain and changes certain. (Revelation 3:11) “Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.” 

 1 John 4:12 “No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.” (1 John 4:18) “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear:”

 Now I say: (Thessalonians 3:5) “And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.” (2 Samuel 22:33) “God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.” 

Know God, know peace. Amen. 06/08/21 BLL

Thy will be Done...the Wayfarer 3/15/19

Thy will be Done 3/15/19 Matthew 6:9-13 King James Version (KJV) 9  After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10  Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 11  Give us this day our daily bread. 12  And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. The "model " prayer, given us by Jesus, repeated daily throughout the world, by many denomination and sect, though seldom examined by those parroting the words is NOT an empty example that is to be followed by congregant, memorized by children and adult alike.  It is exactly the opposite of that emptiness, holding the essence of what SHOU LD be in the heart of the one praying. It is GOD'S will that need be sought, not just daily, but continually by all wishing ...

Remember Therefore from Whence Thou art Fallen,,the Wayfarer 3//27/13

 3//27/13 “Remember from Whence Thou art Fallen” “Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.” (Revelation 2:5) Today we touch the untouchable book of Revelation, given to us by John of Patmos, through our Savior Jesus Christ himself. This particular message is one I have given before, in places where I knew none of the congregation, and had no idea why God wouldn’t let me preach from any other scripture.  It is probably one of the most important messages for the people of today’s church to hear. It is also probably the hardest for today’s “Christians” here in our country to comprehend, and even harder to accept. Take note of the use of the phrase “ the first works” used by Jesus, we will delve deeply into the meaning of this phrase as we progress through today’s message. First, however let us back...

The Life is More than Meat...the Wayfarer 11/29/15

The Life is More than Meat  11/29/15 22  And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. 23  The life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment. (Luke 12:22 &23) Life is indeed more than meat, food, clothing and the things that are constantly demanding the attention of the physical, carnal man, whose concern for himself and those he considers his own, all too often revolve. Life also consists of the inner being, the soul of that man, and those he considers his own, and all others as well with whom he is in contact in the process of what is called living. It is that very essence of life, that eternal soul that holds preeminence and prominence above all physical “needs”. The necessity of a warm coat to stave off the chill of the winter’s cold is undeniably important, without it the physical body, first suffers discomfort, and if ...
