PERFECT PEACE
David Abankwah
READ: Revelation 21:3-4
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.
-Isaiah 26:3 | KJV
God is a God of war. He created this world by fighting against the enemy of silence and the enemy of comfort zone. He knew the war ahead that He needed to deal with, yet, He created His enemies and His lovers. As far as this present world is concerned, war will never cease. There are hidden principles of degeneration that work against everything and every being in the universe. To be practically sound, war started from the abode of God. Lucifer who was more closer to God than any of the angels rose against his Creator. Be not deceived that, those who are closer to you are genuine. Some are pretenders.
The pretenders are the ones who show outward love towards you. They never rebuke you for the stupid and nonsense things you do. They always keep mute when you go wayward. A fierce enemy of you will never alert you to correct your mistakes. If you want to know if someone loves you, pay attention to those who can look at you in the face and say, ‘David, do you know that you said to person A was unwise. Go and apologize. If you don’t repent, you will no longer be my friend.’ Don’t think that such people are your enemies. If they don’t like you, they will keep mute when you go wrong. Lucifer who turned into Satan waged war against God and failed.
They were overthrown down having great wrath. If you are a witch, occult, false prophet or anyone who is using evil spirits for certain purposes, don’t think Satan likes you. He is taking away the peace you should have had with God. Anyone who is not one with God is God’s enemy and every enemy of God attracts His wrath and curses. You are wondering when will I encourage you, because it seems I am always talking about salvation. That is what I was sent to do. I am not here to talk about peace in this world. No peace in this world will last long. But there is a certain peace I want you to know.
This is the perfect peace in New Jerusalem for saints. Let your mind and heart be focused on God as Isaiah was entreating us in Isaiah 26:3. There will be wars of life and ministry you have to fight against. Because of this perfect peace, Satan will try to fight against you every now and then but stay strong and fight back with the Word of God. This perfect peace features everlasting joy, without death and hades, without Satan and evil spirits who would wage war again for all eternity (Revelation 21:4).
