Advent Week 2
With Eager Anticipation
Personal Peace
3 Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, 4 and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, 5 and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us. Romans 5:1-5ESV
13 May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope. Romans 15:13
___________________________vs ____________________________
The Peace of God is _______________________________________________ !
Start with Honesty before God:
True peace says, “Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord! O Lord, hear my voice” Psalm 130:1-2
And it also says, “I have calmed and quieted my soul” Psalm 131:2
You then, my child, be strengthened by the grace that is in Christ Jesus, 3 Share in suffering as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. 4 No soldier gets entangled in civilian pursuits, since his aim is to please the one who enlisted him. 2 Timothy 2:1, 3-4
The role of __________________________________ in our personal peace:
What do you do with __________________________________________
28 Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. Matthew 11:28,29
What to do with ____________________________________________
6 Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. 7 Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:6-7
What to with ________________________________________________
A person’s wisdom yields patience; it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense. Proverbs 19:11
Use _______________________________________ for personal peace.
4We use God’s mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and to destroy false arguments. 5 We destroy every proud obstacle that keeps people from knowing God. (and Gods Peace) We capture their rebellious though and teach them to obey Christ. 2Corinthians 10:4,5
Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. 14 Stand your ground, putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God’s righteousness. 15 For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared.[e] 16 In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil.[f] 17 Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Ephesians 6
9 Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me—everything you heard from me and saw me doing. Then the God of peace will be with you. Philippians 4:9,10
