The Power of Peace in the Believer’s Life

In a world full of chaos and uncertainty, it can be easy to feel like we are constantly being pulled in different directions and struggling to find a sense of balance. But as Priscilla Shirer reminds us, true peace is not something that is dependent on external circumstances. Rather, it is a deep, inner, eternal stability that comes from our relationship with Jesus.

According to Shirer, peace is “the deep, inner, eternal stability the believer possesses by virtue of relationship with Jesus, a sense of balance that’s not subject to external context.” This means that no matter what is going on in the world around us, or what challenges we may be facing, we can have a sense of peace and calm that comes from knowing that we are in a right relationship with God.

But the peace that comes from our relationship with Jesus is not just something that benefits us personally. It also enables us to live harmoniously with others. As Shirer states, peace is “the quality that enables us to live harmoniously with others.” When we are at peace with God, it helps us to be more loving and compassionate towards those around us, and to be more able to resolve conflicts and misunderstandings.

So how can we cultivate this deep, inner peace in our lives? Here are a few tips:

 

  1. Spend time in prayer and Bible study. The more we seek God and grow in our understanding of His Word, the more we will be able to experience the peace that comes from being in a right relationship with Him.
  2. Practice gratitude. Focusing on the things we are thankful for can help us to have a more positive outlook and to find peace in the midst of difficult circumstances.
  3. Let’s go of control. Often, our desire for control can be a major source of stress and anxiety. When we trust God and let go of our need to control everything, it can bring a sense of peace and freedom.
  4. Seek help if you need it. If you are struggling with feelings of anxiety or despair, don’t be afraid to reach out for help. Talk to a trusted friend, pastor, or mental health professional.

In conclusion, peace is a powerful force that can bring stability and harmony to our lives. By our a deep, inner relationship with Jesus we can experience the peace that comes from knowing we loved and accepted by God, and that He has a plan for lives. May we all strive to experience the peace that only God can give.
