Practice Peace

Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and mine as you live in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6–7 (NLT) God knew that we were incapable of earning our way back into His good books. No human is capable of perfection, so He sent His son Jesus to take the fall for us. Through Jesus, He offers you a trade: He defers any punishment due to you on to Jesus and in exchange, He gives you peace and joy. Jesus offers an unbeatable trade! You can exchange your feelings of condemnation and guilt for a …

Por nada estéis afanosos; antes bien, en todo, mediante oración y súplica con acción de gracias, sean dadas a conocer vuestras peticiones delante de Dios. Y la paz de Dios, que sobrepasa todo entendimiento, guardará vuestros corazones y vuestras mentes en Cristo Jesús. Filipenses 4:6-7 (LBLA) Dios sabía que no éramos capaces de ganarnos su aceptación. Ningún ser humano es capaz de la perfección, por lo que Él envió a su hijo Jesús para que tomara el castigo por nosotros. A través de Jesús, Él le ofrece un intercambio: Él difiere cualquier castigo que usted deba sobre Jesús y, a cambio, Él le da paz y alegría. ¡Jesús le ofrece un intercambio inmejorable! Usted puede intercambiar sus sentimientos de condena y culpa por una alegría y paz que es …

But the angel reassured them. “Don’t be afraid!” he said. “I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people.”  Luke 2:10 NLT Have you ever noticed how often you see the words joy and peace at Christmas time? We see them in our Christmas décor and we sing about: “Joy to the World” and “Peace on Earth!” Why do we talk about joy and peace so much at Christmas? When the news that Jesus would be born was announced, heaven couldn’t contain its joy. An angel brought the news to a group of shepherds and the sky suddenly filled with angels singing of peace on earth and goodwill towards men. All of Heaven was ecstatic because peace was about to be …

El Mejor Regalo de Navidad

Mas el ángel les dijo: No temáis, porque he aquí, os traigo buenas nuevas de gran gozo que serán para todo el pueblo; Lucas 2:10 (LBLA) ¿Alguna vez ha notado con qué frecuencia se ven las palabras alegría y paz en Navidad? Los vemos en nuestra decoración navideña y cantamos sobre: ​​”alegría para el mundo” y “paz en la tierra”. ¿Por qué hablamos tanto de alegría y paz en Navidad? Cuando se hizo el anuncio de que Jesús nacería, el cielo no podía contener su alegría. Un ángel, dio el anuncio a un grupo de pastores y el cielo de repente se llenó de ángeles cantando paz en la tierra y buena voluntad a los hombres. Todo el cielo estaba extasiado porque la paz estaba a punto de ser restaurada. …

But the Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby) the Holy Spirit, Whom the Father will send in my name [in my place to represent Me and act on My behalf], He will teach you all things. John 14:26 (AMPC) If someone gives you an expensive gift, it is no use to you left in its wrapping. You need to accept a gift and open it to enjoy. The same is true with Holy Spirit. Yesterday we covered the first three of seven gifts that accompany Holy Spirit. He gives us comfort, counsel and help whenever we ask. Today, we will cover four more powerful gifts He brings. 4.
