The Word Brings Peace - Part 7 - By Pat Stanton


There are certain attitudes and steps that you can live by that will help you maintain daily peace:


8.  GIVE, GIVE, AND GIVE TO OTHERS - - - God put an eternal law into operation concerning sowing and reaping. Whatever we sow (plant) will become alive and active. This is why we must be careful to plant wholesome and pure seeds. We must continually give out words of kindness, faith, and love. Then, in return, these things will come to bear fruit in our lives.

Luke 6:38, "Give, and you will receive." We should expect a return on the seeds that we plant. when we need a miracle or help, we should plant seeds of love, money, kindness, etc., and then expect to receive the desired results.


We have a gift or gifts of God within us. They are given to us for the benefit of others (Romans 12:5-21).

James 5:16 says that as we pray for others, we will be healed. This is a form of giving since we give our time and concern in praying for others.

A PRAYER OF HEALING AND RELEASE:

Dear Friends,

My prayer for you is that you will take God's Word as your constant companion and guide. You will walk in peace as you hear the Word and then do the Word (James 1:22).

Pray this prayer as you sense your need for God's healing power:

Father,

I come to You with praise and worship, recognizing that You are supreme and You are my only help. I ask You to totally free me from the bondages, despair, and guilt of the past. Satan, I bind you in Jesus' Name and I command the spirit of fear, loneliness, and frustration to be released from my life. Father, please fill my mind and emotions with Your healing peace. Renew a right spirit within my heart and free me from condemnation. Thank You for making me free through the blood of Your Son, Jesus Christ. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
