“Godly Wisdom for Having Peace at All Times”

Hello Leading Ladies! Thank you for joining us last weekend for our Leading Ladies Zoom event! We received amazing feedback from everyone. Here are the notes from the awesome lesson that Pastor Angela taught!!

 “Godly Wisdom for Having Peace at All Times” 

Peace: Freedom from oppressive thoughts or emotions. A state in life where you are free from frustration, worry or stress and have a calmness that transcends the ideas of natural men.

Phil 4:6-7 ERV Don’t worry about anything, but pray and ask God for everything you need, always giving thanks for what you have.

And because you belong to Christ Jesus, God’s peace will stand guard over all your thoughts and feelings. His peace can do this far better than our human minds.[b] (3 easy action steps to do to experience God’s peace)

Prov 16:7 KJV  When a man's ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him. (Focus on pleasing God, He’s got you)

Four things happen when I am not in peace:

1. I Lose divine insight - the ability to hear from God

2. I Lose divine wisdom - the ability to understand Gods Word

3. I Lose divine revelation - the ability to see beyond logic

4. I Lose divine power - the ability to operate like God

How tp maintain peace at all times:

I Consistently heard the Word - I Stayed connected to my man of God

I Continued to believe the Word - In spite of challenges I believed God

I Constantly spoke the Word - I continued to confess better for us. 

And let’s ultimately remember that people are not our enemies. We have a real spiritual enemy who loves it when we battle and accuse each other. If we blame people, circumstances, or struggles for our stress and lack of peace, then we are inevitably giving them control over whether or not we live in peace. Let’s not give anything or anyone in our lives this kind of power. There is only One peace-bringer, and His name is Jesus. He is the Prince of all Peace.
