"Peace That Passes Understanding" is a gift of God.

Isaiah 26

3You will keep him in perfect peace,

Whose mind is stayed on You,

Because he trusts in You.

Psalm 143

A Psalm of David.

1 Hear my prayer, O LORD,

Give ear to my supplications!

In Your faithfulness answer me,

And in Your righteousness.

2Do not enter into judgment with Your servant,

For in Your sight no one living is righteous.

3For the enemy has persecuted my soul;

He has crushed my life to the ground;

He has made me dwell in darkness,

Like those who have long been dead.

4Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me;

My heart within me is distressed.

5I remember the days of old;

I meditate on all Your works;

I muse on the work of Your hands.

6I spread out my hands to You;

My soul longs for You like a thirsty land.Selah

7Answer me speedily, O LORD;

My spirit fails!

Do not hide Your face from me,

Lest I be like those who go down into the pit.

8Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning,

For in You do I trust;

Cause me to know the way in which I should walk,

For I lift up my soul to You.

9Deliver me, O LORD, from my enemies;

In You I take shelter.[1]

10Teach me to do Your will,

For You are my God;

Your Spirit is good.

Lead me in the land of uprightness.

11Revive me, O LORD, for Your name's sake!

For Your righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.

12In Your mercy cut off my enemies,

And destroy all those who afflict my soul;

For I am Your servant.

They shall run and not be weary,

They shall walk and not faint.

For I seek Your precepts.

Isaiah 58

2Yet they seek Me daily,

And delight to know My ways,

As a nation that did righteousness,

And did not forsake the ordinance of their God.

They ask of Me the ordinances of justice;

They take delight in approaching God.

2 Chronicles 7

14 If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and Pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

Psalm 63

Joy in the Fellowship of God (A Psalm of David)

1 O God, You are my God;

Early will I seek You;

My soul thirsts for You;

My flesh longs for You

In a dry and thirsty land

Where there is no water.

2 So I have looked for You in the sanctuary,

To see Your power and Your glory.

We live in a time when the "Pride of life" is a common sin. It causes worldliness. It causes stubborn self-centered focus and strife. We all want rights, but Christians give up their rights. "Ouch!"

Revive us Again

Psalm 85: verse 6, says "Revive us again".

Psalm 85: 6) Will You not revive us again,

That Your people may rejoice in You?

Deuteronomy 4: 24

For the LORD your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God

Pastor Elka reminds us that there are over ninety references to fire related to revival and God. Get on fire for the Kingdom of God, in His great enabling power!
