Vindicate me, O Lord, for I have led a blameless life. I have trusted in the Lord without wavering. (Psalm 26:1). God wants us to live a blameless life. Jesus is coming for a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy & blameless.  (Ephesians 5:27). He reinforced this position in Hebrews 12:14: Make every effort to live in peace with all men & to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord. We may go to church yes, entertain ourselves in Christian religion, but all that is not going to make us go to Heaven in the age to come. In this age we will not be in sync with God without holiness & living in peace with others. Our Gospel is a Gospel of peace. Our Jesus is the Prince of peace. God wants us to peacemakers who sow the Gospel in peace. This way, we will raise a harvest of righteousness. We are preaching the Word of God in our churches week in week out but our fruit is not righteous? It is largely not consistent with the Scriptures. Infact worldliness is increasing. Why? Let me answer you by asking questions. Are you at peace with God? You yourself do you have peace? Do you live in peace with all men? Are you a peacemaker or you are a trouble maker? How do you sow the Gospel? In peace or selfishly, with hatred, jealousy, & the like? Who do you give the glory, God or you take His glory? Peace is a fruit of the Spirit. It is very important in the life of any Christian. Let us live in peace with all men. Let us live holy lives. Our Gospel will have a meaning.  Christianity will have a meaning in our lives. Let us do an introspection of our lives. Where we fail, do not condemn yourself. Jesus loves you. I love you as well. Simply make peace with God. How? Confess your sins & repent of them. Accept Jesus Christ as Lord & Saviour of your life or if you are a fallen Christian, rededicate your life to Him today. You will be connected to God. The Holy Spirit will begin to change your life to be like Christ. You will grow spiritually if you carefully follow ALL the commands of God. You will be blessed with uncommon blessings. You will be a vessel of honor in the house of God. Your life & ministry will be characterized with uncommon faith, surpassing power, uncommon wisdom & surpassing revelation. You will suffocate the devil's & stifle them. You will walk as God walks; talk as God talks; think as God thinks; feel what others are feeling. You will take after the nature of God. You will be God-fearing. God will confide in you. Pray His will continually & in faith. Give God the praise & all the glory.  Give thanks to Him. Prayer: Father, give us the grace to live in peace with all men & to be holy. Your Word says that without holiness, no one will see the Lord. This is a serious statement. Help us to SHAPE our lives strictly in accordance with your Word of God. Fill us with your love, joy & peace. Make us righteous, holy, pure. Prepare us for the return of Christ. Thank you Jesus for hearing & answering my prayer. In Jesus mighty name we pray & believe, Amen.  Good morning Holy Spirit.  Heaven Rules.
