Spirit of Peace

Peace: Tranquil, quiet, and secure; Harmony in relations and free of conflict.

A peacemaker is one who reconciles, and is peaceable, not quarrelsome, and free from strife or disorder. Christ is the Prince of Peace. To walk in his ways are the way of peace. When you walk with Christ and are obedient to him and the laws of God then you are at one with him and with the Father. You are at peace with him. It is Christ that is our reconciliation that brings us into oneness with the Father. Sin is the separator. Sin is the great act of conflict that caused a wide breach between the children of this earth and our Father in heaven. Christ is the open door. Within his word are all that is good, and all that is peaceable. He taught us how to walk within the law, and in the gospel. If we walk as he walked then we will be at peace as much as possible in the world. Hebrews 12:14, “Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord.”

And also Paul says in Romans 12:17-18, “Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.” If our brothers walk as he walked, and we walk as he walked, then we will be on one accord, in perfect peace and harmony.

Philippians 2:2-3, “Fulfill ye my joy, that ye be like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.” We can never be at perfect peace with the world because the world is full of sin. Satan will never stop trying to hurt us. He causes offenses. He sends the wicked to make our lives difficult, to create pain and distress.

But within Christ is all that is good. He is our peace. John 16:33, “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.”
