Open Your Eyes

JANUARY 28

MATTHEW 5:9_for they shall be called the children of God.

How do you find peace?

Peace comes from connecting the soul (mind, will, emotions) with the spirit. When the soul connects with the spirit, which is connected to Christ, it experiences confidence and security—regardless of circumstances. 

When peace is dependent upon life’s circumstances being exactly as you want, seldom will you find inward peace. 

Open your eyes.

See Jesus at work in your life.

Hear Him calling.

Focus on Jesus in the midst of your storms (physical, spiritual, or psychological).

Believe Jesus is who the Bible says He is.

Experience the peace that overcomes life’s circumstances.

John 16:33 (KJV), “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me [Jesus] ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.”

That verse says a lot! This life will not always go the way you want. Life comes with trouble. Jesus lets you know that He’s got this. That doesn’t mean you won’t hurt, moan, groan, and cry. If you didn’t do any of those—you wouldn’t have trouble.

Agree with Jesus and let Him overcome your world. You will be a child of God!

PRAYER

Dear Jesus, I praise You for overcoming the world. I know You can overcome the storms which rage within my soul. In the powerful name of Jesus, Amen.                    

Christ gives peace—To my soul!

    This is what I call the oneness and most folks think I am nuts.
    Some however will give it a try and are pleasantly shocked at the results.

  2. Yes!! I, too, call it oneness! The world will always think we’re crazy. They thought the same of Jesus – even His own family (Mark 3:21). But as you said, they gave it a try and experienced His transforming power!!!
