– John 14:27 –
- The peace that Jesus offers is not like that which the world offers
(John 14:27)
(Romans 5:1)
(Philippians 4:6-7) - There are obstacles that steal our peace
• Guilt
• Anger
• Bitterness
• Self-centeredness
• Doubt
• Unbelief
• Jealousy - How can we experience the peace that Jesus offers
• We must believe that He is in control of our lives and our circumstances. Otherwise, we will try to take control, and there is conflict in that struggle.
• We must believe that His offer of peace is real and be willing to accept it in spite of our feelings.
• We must fully surrender our lives – mind, will, and emotions – to Jesus as our Lord.
