Peace With God!

FOUR BIBLICAL STEPS TO PEACE WITH GOD!

Step 1: God’s Love, Purpose, and Plan for You

Peace with God, agree with God’s will, and put aside your own will.

God loves you and wants you to experience peace and life — abundant and eternal. The Bible says: “We have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” Romans 5:1

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16.

“I have come that they may have life and that they may have it more abundantly.” John 10:10 Sin is why people don’t have the peace and abundant life God planned for us.

Step 2: Our Problem – Separated From God by Sin

Peace with God is more valuable than silver or gold! NeedEncouragement.com

Make time for God to find peace with God!

Find peace with God in those times when you feel all alone. God created us in His image to have an abundant life. He did not make us robots to love and obey Him automatically. God gave us a will and freedom of choice. We chose to disobey God and go our deliberate way away from Him. We still make this choice today, resulting in separation from God.

” For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23

“For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus, our Lord.” Romans 6:23.

People have tried to bridge this gap between themselves and God in many ways, but our attempts to reach God often seem futile. There is no bridge to reach God except one, Jesus Christ.

Step 3: Jesus Christ – The Only Bridge to God

Avoid sin in your life by clinging to our Lord Jesus!

Jesus Christ died on the Cross and rose from the grave. He paid the penalty for our sins and bridged the gap between God and people.

“For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Jesus Christ.” 1 Timothy 2:5

“But God demonstrates his love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8

God has provided the only way. Each person must make a choice.

Step 4: Receiving Jesus as Lord and Savior

When you accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior, you will be saved and born again!

Then, we must learn His ways, apply His teaching, and share His good news with others! We must trust Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and receive Him by personal invitation.

“Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.“ John 1:12

“That if you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” Romans 10:9.

Are you interested in a real relationship with Jesus Christ now? It is not magical but an agreement between you and God in your heart.

Footprints in the Sand: When God Carries You!

God is the one who carries us!

One night, a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the LORD. Across the sky, he flashed scenes from his life. He noticed two footprints in the sand, one his and the other the LORD’s.

When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed only one set of prints many times throughout his life. He also saw that it happened at his life’s lowest and saddest times.

This bothered him, and he questioned the LORD about it. “LORD, you said that you’d walk with me once I followed you. However, I have noticed only one set of footprints during the most troublesome times in my life. I don’t understand why you would leave me when I needed you the most.”

The LORD replied, “My precious child, I love you, and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you.”

Nothing Compares To Having Peace With God!

There was a time when my knowledge of God existed solely in my mind, without genuine peace within myself or with Him. That chapter was marked by indulgence in alcohol and drugs and living a sinful lifestyle, essentially straying away from following God’s path for me; however, once you come to know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior – oh, what pure bliss! Peace with God takes on a new meaning for those who have experienced this incredible transformation, which I pray you will discover through the Holy Spirit. ~ Bill Greguska

We are not at peace with others because we are not at peace with ourselves, and we are not at peace with ourselves because we are not at peace with God. ~ Thomas Merton

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