#483: The Gift of Peace

Loren Hicks

The Big Idea: 

There is a connection between our trust in God and inner peace we experience. The more I trust God, his plan, and his purpose, the more I can rest in him. I can give God my fear, anxiety, worry, and frustration. I can find comfort in the deep knowledge that He is in control and that He is with me.


Main Points:

1. One of the primary messages of Christmas is peace. The truth the Jesus has come to bring us peace is embedded in every part of the biblical story.
2. I’m convinced the key to peace is daily abiding with Jesus. I’ve never been able to find peace with out it. As we spend time with Jesus, there is an intentional shift of our focus off of the pressures and cares of life and onto Jesus. 
3. The only way to find true peace is to give your life to Jesus Christ. Emotional peace and peace with others is the result of having peace with God.



Today’s Scripture Verses:

John 16:33 - ““I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

Luke 2:14 - “Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!”
