What is Peace?
“Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.” Matthew 10:34

What is peace? Is peace a lack of conflict or is peace the presence of victory? Do Christians seek “peace” through silence and subservience? Do we allow the evils of the world to dominate us in order to avoid conflict so that we can have what we believe is peace?
Modern, so-called churches have given themselves over to the sins of the world in order to get along with the world. What is the primary duty of a Christian? Is it to get along with the world?
32“Therefore, everyone who [x]confesses Me before people, I will also confess [y]him before My Father who is in heaven. But whoever denies Me before people, I will also deny him before My Father who is in heaven.
34“Do not think that I came to [z]bring peace on the earth; I did not come to [aa]bring peace, but a sword. 35For I came to TURN A MAN AGAINST HIS FATHER, AND A DAUGHTER AGAINST HER MOTHER, AND A DAUGHTER-IN-LAW AGAINST HER MOTHER-IN-LAW; 36and A PERSON’S ENEMIES WILL BE THE MEMBERS OF HIS HOUSEHOLD.
37“The one who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and the one who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. 38And the one who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. 39The one who has found his [ab]life will lose it, and the one who has lost his [ac]life on My account will find it.
Graveyards are “peaceful” there is no conflict there. Should we aspire to the grave? Jesus gave his disciples the authority to cast out demons in His name. You must cast the demons out of your churches, your families, and your communities, but the demons will not go quietly. There will be conflict but after victory there will be true peace.
Warrior’s Prayer
Lord, I come before you seeking the strength and skill to overcome my enemies. Grant me I pray, the wisdom to recognize evil, the courage to confront it, and the strength to destroy it. In Jesus’ name, I pray, amen.
