Grace and Peace
Grace and peace are gifts from God that every human heart craves. Grace for sustaining strength during sickness and peace in the process. Grace for continued forgiveness in a challenging relationship and peace that produces patience. Grace for ongoing gratitude and peace when things don’t go our way. Grace for generous giving and peace in God’s faithful provision. A heart governed by grace and peace is a heart filled with the Lord’s love. Grace and peace come from Jesus.
John is secluded in exile, and his Lord had ascended to heaven decades earlier. Yet in some ways, John sees Jesus more clearly in this vision than he did when they were together. Jesus Christ is the faithful witness who gives His children grace and peace. How? In His words and His actions, Jesus revealed Who God is – the loving heavenly Father. Jesus’s son-ship gave His story veracity, so He stated the facts with humble authority. Jesus testifies to truth, and His reassuring words extend grace and peace.
Grace and peace come to those who believe Jesus is the firstborn from the dead. Others, like Lazarus, died and were brought back to life, but they died again. Jesus Christ is the only one whose body was transformed in resurrection power, never to experience death again. Faith in the resurrection is essential if we are to receive the Lord’s grace and peace. We cannot remove the supernatural from Jesus and just keep the natural. Trust in Christ’s resurrection is the key that unlocks the treasure chest of riches found in His grace and peace. Those who embrace Jesus must embrace His miracles. These hugs from heaven warm our hearts by His loving care.
Tranquility comes to hearts that trusts in Christ as their Lord. Crown Him conqueror over death, and you will enjoy His grace and peace while dying. Crown Him Lord over fear, and you will receive His grace and peace while afraid. Crown Him all-wise King and learn how to make the best decisions. Crown Him Lord over sin and apply His grace and peace when in need of forgiveness. Whatever we face, Christ has already faced—and has overcome. Thus, we come to the One who is full of grace and peace!
Whom or what do I need to entrust to Jesus? Have I received His grace and peace?
