Jesus promised us peace. In fact it is one of the last promises He made to His leaders the night before He died. John 14:27 I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So dont be troubled or afraid. What an awesome promise! What a fantastic gift. The very peace that enabled Jesus to calm the storm, confront the forces of Satan, and face the horrors of the cross without wavering has been left with us. Peace works as a guardian over the gate of our heart and mind. It is a kind of thermostat to measure the temperature of spiritual passion; a compass to keep us on the path God has designed for us. One of the fastest ways to know you’ve missed it is the loss of peace. Our conscience is the mechanism that registers our level of God’s peace in response to our thoughts and actions. When we act, speak, or think in ways that displease our Father, our manifested peace level retreats. A rising sense of dread, fear, or inner anxiety begins to trouble us.
