Rejoice
in the Lord Always!
I
will say it again: Rejoice !
Let
your Gentleness be Evident to All.
THE
LORD IS NEAR.
Do
not be Anxious Anything,
But
in Everything by Prayer and Petition,
With
Thanksgiving, Present your Requests to God.
AND
THE PEACE OF GOD,
WHICH
TRANSCENDS ALL UNDERSTANDING,
WILL
GUARD YOUR HEARTS AND YOUR MINDS
IN
CHRIST JESUS.
Finally,
brothers, whatever is Noble,
Whatever
is Right, whatever is Pure,
Whatever
is Lovely, whatever is Admirable--
If
anything is Excellent or Praiseworthy--
Think
about Such Things.
Whatever
you have learned or received or heard from me--
Put
it into Practice.
AND
THE GOD OF PEACE WILL BE WITH YOU.
(Philippians
4:4-9)
Christ
Jesus gave His Disciples this Instruction:
If
you love Me, you will Obey what I Command.
And
I will ask the Father,
And
He will give you another Counselor
To
be with you FOREVER—The Spirit of TRUTH.
The
World cannot Accept Him nor knows Him.
But
you Know Him, for He lives with you
AND
WILL BE IN YOU.
I
will not leave you as Orphans;
I
will come to you.
Before
long, the World will not see Me Anymore,
But
you will See Me.
BECAUSE
I LIVE YOU WILL ALSO LIVE.
ON
THAT DAY [the Day of Pentecost]
You
will Realize that I AM in My Father,
AND
YOU ARE IN ME, AND I AM IN YOU.
Whoever
has My Commands and Obeys them,
He
is the One who loves Me.
He
who loves Me will be loved by My Father,
And
I too will love him
AND
SHOW MYSELF TO HIM.
Then
Judas (not Iscariot) said,
'But
Lord, why do you intend to show yourself to us
AND
NOT TO THE WORLD?'
Jesus
replied,
'If
Anyone loves Me, he will Obey My Teaching.
My
Father will love him,
AND
WE WILL COME TO HIM
AND
MAKE OUR HOME WITH HIM.
HE
WHO DOES NOT LOVE ME
WILL
NOT OBEY MY TEACHING
(The
World Hates Christ Jesus because He tells them
That
what they do is Evil--John 7:7)
These
words you hear are Not My Own;
They
belong to the Father Who Sent Me.
All
this I have spoken while still with you.
But
the Counselor, the Holy Spirit,
Whom
the Father will send In My Name,
Will
Teach you ALL THINGS
And
will Remind you of Everything I have said to you.
PEACE
I LEAVE WITH YOU;
MY
PEACE I GIVE YOU.
I
do not give to you as the World gives.
(The
world has No Peace to give)
Do
not be Afraid.
You
heard Me say,
'I
AM going Away and I AM coming back to you.'
If
you loved Me,
You
would be Glad that I AM going to the Father,
For
the Father is Greater than I.
I
have told you Now before it Happens,
So
that when it does Happen you will Believe.
I
will not speak with you much longer,
FOR
THE PRINCE OF THIS WORLD IS COMING.
HE
HAS NO HOLD ON ME [as he does on
the Whole World],
But
the World Must Learn that I love the Father
AND
I DO EXACTLY WHAT MY FATHER HAS COMMANDED ME.
(John
14:15-31)
When
Christ Jesus lives within us,
THE
PEACE OF GOD LIVES WITHIN US,
For
He is the Prince of Peace;
Christ
In us the Hope of Glory;
This
is the Same Peace that is the Atmosphere of Heaven;
The
Peace that is Untouched by the Chaos of the World.
This
Peace is the Assurance of Salvation and Heaven.
