I Thess. 5:23
"And the very God of PEACE sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole SPIRIT and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ." I Thess. 5:23
I keep coming across these verses about peace. :) This one says that God is a God of
PEACE.....
and I am to be like Him...
I am to be AT PEACE...in and through everything!
The God of PEACE is the One who is sanctifiying us and making us holy. In fact, peace IS A PART of holiness, isn't it?
In this verse we are also reminded that sanctification involves our spirit as well as our soul and body. It's not just what we do; it's also our attitudes, our inner spirit and what is in our heart.
I pray God will indeed work within us a "peaceful spirit" so that we will be preserved BLAMELESS.
I guess if we don't really have a "peaceful heart"...if we are constantly anxious, that we are not very blameless, huh?
May God grant each of us today that inner PEACE! Amen!
