He is the giver of TRUE PEACE....

There are so many places throughout/in scripture where we see Him displayed as PEACE, whether it states it clearly or we just see Him as an answer to a situation that would otherwise cause chaos.

For instance, I think of Esther and as she prepares to enter the King's chambers, as she states, "For such a time as this...whether I lose my life or not..." there seemed to be this PEACE that came over her that no matter the result she knew what needed to happen and that He was with her. Then there is the famous three in the fiery furnace, David in the Lion den's, the disciples on the boat in a raging storm, shade by day from a cloud and fire by night for warmth as so many walked in the desert...we see a sort of PEACE that takes away differences, unites and protects and turns many to Himself. A PEACE that overtakes Mary when greeted with life altering news from an angel as she says, YES to Him!!!!!

Ephesians 2: 11- 22:
Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, call "the uncircumcision" by what is called circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands-remember that you were were at time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. For He, Himself is our PEACE, who has made us both one and has broken down in His flesh the dividing wall of hostility by abolishing the law of commandments and ordinances, that He might create in Himself one new man in place of two, so making PEACE, and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby killing hostility. And He came and preached PEACE to you were near. For through Him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father. So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. In Him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.

That is our prayer...that His PEACE that offers hope, life, love and an encounter with Jesus, Himself will be released over this Nation...over all Nations. As we take each step in the Nation that we would put on the shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of PEACE [Ephesians 6:15]. That as each step is taken, we would claim His PEACE and ask it to be released.
