peace on earth?

Picture
The birth of Messiah was to bring peace on earth but we have more wars than peace.  The peace Christ would bring was between Him and man, not between men.
                 
James 4:1 From where do wars and brawls come from?  Do they not come from your lusts that war in your fleshly members.
 
                  What is the Holy Spirit insinuating here?  We are having issues with human conflict and we don’t know why, we think it’s standard operating procedure.  The devil is feeding our lusts and we like it until it’s time to pay for our error.  Wars and brawling have consequence, the devil leads us into temptation and then leaves us holding the bag.
 
James 4:7 Submit yourselves to God.  Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

How does one submit to God?  They agree to do whatever He says to do.  We have two different spirits from which to choose to obey.  We can obey the Holy Spirit or the devil, one will bless us and one will impart a curse.  It’s important to recognize the devil so you can ignore him.  It’s more important to recognize God so you can stay connected to Him.
 
When you are in a committed relationship with the Lord you will have peace on earth with Him.

    OFFERING DECLARATION
    I know the grace of God,
    it came from His love for me.

    Jesus was a wealthy man,
    but the curse made Him poor so I could be increased with wealth.

    Jesus is my Passover,
    I eat His body and drink His blood.
    ​

    I have His life within me,
    a life of peace and abundance.

    ​PRAYER FOCUS
    YEAR OF THE LOCAL CHURCH
    PRAYERS FOR OUR NATION
     
    BORDER CRISIS:
    Protection for: People who are innocently being lured to America with false promises from our leadership. Lord, protect those people especially the children. Protect them and our nation from the flood of drugs, cartels, terrorists, traffickers and all the diseases that now have access to our cities and citizens. Post angels along our southern border. Expose the evil. Praying for our law officials and National Guard on the front lines.  Give them protection and wisdom.
     
    GOVERNMENT FEDERAL/STATE/LOCAL:
    We pray in agreement with your Word: Luke 8:17 “Nothing is secret that will not be revealed, nor anything hidden that will not be known and come to light”. Truth cannot be hidden. The truth sets us free.  Jesus is the Way, Truth and Light! Give the Righteous leaders boldness, wisdom and strength as they fight on the front lines. Give them every tool they need to  carry out your will Father. Every person who is in a place of authority that does not have a legal “God right” to be there will be transformed or removed.
     
    ALL LEGAL MATTERS:  We pray for those legally gathering up and exposing the enemy’s lies. Protection for them and their families. All cover-ups and deeds done in darkness against the United States of America will have complete exposure.  God’s plans and purpose for America will prevail.
