Series: I Will Rescue You

But the “peace” that Jesus gives is the experience of a deep inner calm, rest & confidence that is untouched & unmoved by adversity, opposition, circumstances & persecution. Peace is not the absence of trouble but the presence of Christ.

Worry is sin because it denies the wisdom of God; it says that He doesn’t know what He’s doing. It denies the love of God; it says He does not care. And it denies the power of God; it says that He isn’t able to deliver me from whatever is causing me to worry.

Jesus promises peace to those who believe in Him. Even those who faith is weak at times. And Jesus promises victory to all who are His, because He has overcome the world. He promises wisdom & understanding to all who seek His truth. We all need it, because we still live in this world where there will be problems & difficulty for all who faithfully follow Christ.

Being a Christian is not about following the law or a set of rules. It is about following a person—Jesus Christ. He is there to forgive you when you fail, He is there to pick you up when you fall, and He is there to strengthen you for the journey ahead. He is there to give you rest for your soul.
