RCCG Open Heaven 4 September 2021 Message

Peace is described in Proverbs 17:1 as being more valuable than riches. Peace is essential for progress and success whether for an individual or a group of people. I pray nothing will take away the peace of God from your life in Jesus name. There are however different categories of peace.

There is environmental peace this has to do with physical security. Increasingly, nations have to grapple with terrorism, kidnapping, armed robbery and several other societal ills that threaten their peace. Environmental peace clearly also affects the peace of mind of individuals.Glory to God – Jesus our Lord is the Prince of Peace. What this means is that He is the controller, giver, sustainer and nourisher of peace for man. Lack of peace brings fear, causes confusion and leads to bondage.

No vision, development or progress is made where there is no peace. Peace, at the highest level, can only be found in God Almighty. That is why no one else can boast of security except by coming to Jesus. This in turn makes Jesus the author of peace. The Lord will keep evil away from you (Psalms 91:10 ) be it kidnappers, armed robbers, assassins and the like, thus ensuring that you dwell in peace.

Your mind will be at peace also. You however, must continue to love and trust Him with all your heart as well as resources. Psalms 91:1 says:

“He that dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.”

There can be no peace unless protection or security is guaranteed, according to Psalms 125:2 which says:

“As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about His people from henceforth even forever.”

These are the words of the Lord that cannot lie. Unfortunately, many children of God are ignorant of His promises. Read His word, meditate on it, believe it, confess it and claim it. It will surely work for you.We need to pay attention to todays Bible text. The Bible encourages us to put our trust in God. This is the only way we can secure peace like a river in our hearts, homes, towns, cities and countries.

Key Point: Pray for peace in Nigeria and all nations of the world. Pray that the gospel will thrive in all nations of the world, in the mighty name of Jesus.

Bible in One Year: Proverbs 8:1-36 , Proverbs 9:1-18
