Fasting Day 14


God wants you to live a life of peace, bring peace to every situation and cause even your enemies to be at peace with you.

Continue to read Acts chapters 9 and 10

In these chapters, the most intense enemy of the church is made to be a friend of the church. A representative of the oppressive government over the Christians also comes to Christ and even receives the infilling of the Holy Spirit.

There are a few verses I want to remind you of so you will understand all that the Lord has for you to keep you in peace.

Proverbs 16:7
When a man's ways please the Lord, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.

Isaiah 26:3
You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.

Romans 5:1
Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ

Our enemies are not to control us, as we serve the Lord, He has a way of bringing peace even in the most troubling situations. Your enemy may be a neighbor, a family member, a coworker, or it may not be a person but a disease, or a limitation like finances, relationships or fear, guilt, or anxiety. Who or whatever your enemy is God can cause you to have peace over it. Believe for your peace today!
