Peacemaker: pursue peace

Peacemaker: pursue peace by ric gustafson


God has provided everything that we need for a life of peace. Hebrews 12:14 says strive to live in peace with everybody. The word strive means to follow or pursue. God wants us to find peace with people. He wants us to build people up in the faith not tear them down. We need to pray for others and encourage each other. Jesus wants us to enjoy peace but we must pursue it.
Satan will try anything to steal our peace. His lies steal our peace but God's truth sets us free. We must find out what our peace stealers are so we can avoid them. Peace is power and we have power over Satan. As followers of Jesus, we are required to be peacemakers. We have to make an effort to be a peacemaker but with God and Christ and grace, we can do it.
