Remember, there is a difference between peacekeepers and peacemakers.

A peacekeeper is someone who works between 2 parties, who have a conflict, trying to find a way to keep peace between them. They do what they can to find a way to try to silence a disagreement. It doesn’t seem like there is anything wrong with this right? Except, there is never a resolution.

A peacemaker is someone who works between 2 parties, who have a conflict, and tries to find a resolution to the problem. They are the ones who tries to mediate, looking for a solution, so the parties come to an agreement that works, so that there may not be a conflict again. Basically, they are mediators, or problem-solvers.

We learn that if we are peacemakers, we will have more fruit in the ministry that is given to us. Let’s work on being peacemakers more than peacekeepers.

Lord, we want to produce more fruit of righteousness. You have told us that it is sown in peace through those who make peace. Help us to be peacemakers. (Taken From James 3:18)

We know how to be peacemakers by first making Peace with You. We know that in order to do this, we need to have Jesus as Our Lord and Savior.

We ask for forgiveness. We ask and invite Jesus to Lead our lives. We pray to grow in our Relationship with Him so that He leads us in Righteousness.

Thank You for creating a way for us to come to Peace. Thank You for leading us to be peacemakers.

In Jesus Name, Amen!

If we are to please God, we need to allow The Holy Spirit to set us apart. We need to pursue a sinless life. We are to seek Righteousness. How do we do it? Through prayer, study, fellowship, being willing to be corrected/accountability, discipleship, and service.

It starts with Our Relationship with Jesus. If you don’t have a Relationship with Him or you need to rekindle that Relationship, do it now. Call out to Him and seek his Love and Forgiveness. It really is as hard or easy as you make it.

We should look to Him daily to seek a relationship with Him. I want to encourage you to seek Him today, if you haven’t already. If you need help, have questions or need direction in this regard, please, feel free to let me know.

Maybe today you are struggling with something. Maybe you may have found yourself not as close to The Lord as you thought. We would like to help you in this through prayer and guidance. If you find yourself in need of prayer and/or encouragement, please, feel free to call or text +1 (505) 600-1027 or email cross66info@gmail.com
