And the God of Peace will be with You.
PHILIPPIANS 4:8-9
Finally brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praise worthy - think about such things.
Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me - put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
...And the God of peace will be with you
The later part of verse 9 in the chapter above, seems more of a condition than a prayer. A conditions that must be met for those that seek the presence of the God of peace.
Whatever you have:
- learned
- received
- heard from me
- seen in me (Paul, other apostles & faithful servants of God)_
And here comes the condition.... you must;
- put it into practice.
Throughout the ministry of Apostle Paul, he repeatedly emphasized on living the life of Christ. He lived a practical Christ-like life. Of what use are the words you have learned, received, heard and seen if they don't glorify Christ. Of what use are the teachings on love, purity, humility, mercy, selflessness and moderation if others can't see it in you.
I pray that the words of God that you've heard, learned and received, and the miraculous works of faith that you have seen bring the God of peace to dwell and reign in your heart and home in Jesus name... (AMEN!)
The 'Hope Beckons' series started last year as a way to motivate as many as possible through the Holy Scripture(Bible) with prayers to accompany each series. Hope Beckons series aim at giving hope to everyone out there. It is the needed capsule to inspire us to greatness by standing on the promises of God.
Addition to the 'Hope Beckons' Series
This year, I intend to make the 'Hope Beckons' series more inspiring and cheerful by introducing: 'Hope Beckons- Share&Care. Hope Beckons- Share&Care will only feature every mid-week(Wednesday) as an act of kindness to my followers on the Hope Beckons series.
The modalities to participate for the 'Hope Beckons- Share&Care' are under way and would be communicated to us in due time.
God Bless!
