Many a times,
we fail to realize that
peace is not something that
we obtain because
we have put ourselves in
a special posture.
Or we have meditated
long enough.
We go to the countryside
or by the beach and
we just do deep breathing.
It is not something that you do.
It is something that you receive.
Jesus said: “Peace
I leave with you.”
“My peace I give unto you.”
Peace. Shalom.
Now He would have spoken
Aramaic or Hebrew to His disciples.
He would have said this:
“Shalom I leave with you,
“I bequeath to you.”
“I give to you.”
“Shalom, I’ll give you.
Shalom.”
“My shalom, My peace.”
“Peace I leave with you.
My peace I give unto you.”
“It’s not just any peace.
It is My peace.”
“That peace that you
saw Me operating in”
“these three and a half years.”
“That peace that you
saw Me operating in.”
“In ministering that wellbeing”
“and wholeness to those
who were sick,”
“to those who were broken
for those who were infirmed.”
“That same peace that
you saw when I”
“touched the leper and
he was cleansed.”
“That same peace you saw Me.
I was in that peace when”
“I was sleeping in that boat,
in the midst of the storm.”
“And you guys had to
wake Me up.”
“That peace I leave with you.
My peace I give unto you.”
“Peace I leave with you.
My peace I give unto you.”
“Not as the world gives,
give I unto you.”
Now, this is the only thing
He asks of you.
To receive it, to enjoy it, He says:
“Let not your heart be troubled.”
The peace is given by Him.
But the way you enjoy
that peace is—
He tells you only one thing:
“Let not.”
“I cannot let not your heart
be troubled for you.”
“And your pastor cannot
do that for you.”
Your spouse cannot do that for you.
Your children cannot do that for you.
No one can do that for you,
but yourself.
Jesus is talking to you
and He says: “Let not.”
“You let not your heart be troubled.
Neither let it be afraid.” Amen.
In fact it would be great for you
to once a while,
to make it like a game.
Amen.
I know it might sound
a bit irreverent
but honestly,
the things of God are easy.
It’s not hard!
When I say “a game”, I’m saying
make it easy because
Jesus says: “My yoke is easy
and My burden is light.”
Sometimes we live with
the impression. Amen.
I remember I have this impression
growing up in in church
that Christian life is hard
but my Bible says:
“The way of the
transgressors is hard.”
Jesus said: “My yoke is easy.
My burden is light.”
Notice those two words:
“Easy” and “light.”
“My yoke is easy.
My burden is light.”
Easy, light.
Light, easy.
Think about those words!
Hallelujah! Amen.
And throughout this week,
if you can.
Make it like a game,
make it easy for you.
Amen.
Every time something
comes to provoke
your heart into fear or anxiety,
or maybe you are
watching the news and you find
your heart getting troubled.
Straight away, tell yourself:
“Let not your heart be troubled.”
“Let not your heart be troubled.”
Talk to yourself.
“Let not your heart
be troubled.” Amen.
Don’t let your heart be troubled.
“No, I will not let my heart
be troubled.”
“That’s my responsibility.”
Amen.
“Don’t let your heart be troubled.”
Jesus says.
“Neither let it be afraid.”
“Let not your heart be troubled,
neither let it be afraid.”
It’s one thing to be troubled,
it’s another thing to be afraid.
Many a times,
when trouble comes—
alright, we are troubled and
then we succumb to the fear
and then further on
to panic attacks and
the worst form of stress.
You know, chronic stress
is dangerous because
you release something, in
the adrenal glands,
you release something
called cortisol.
And cortisol will release
sugar in your bloodstream
for fight or flight.
Amen.
The sugar is supposed to
help you fight or flight.
But what happens if
you’re chronically stressed?
You’re perpetually stressed?
Even when the danger is over.
Now, a certain amount
of stress is good. Amen.
A certain amount of exercise
when you are stressed is okay.
Perfectly okay!
You need the energy.
You need that boost
from your sugar in the blood
but anything further than that,
after the danger is over,
after your exercise, you should
not be troubled,
you should not be stressed
because chronic stress
will keep on releasing that sugar
in your bloodstream.
And that’s how people may
have problems with diabetes
and other forms of sickness
and disease.
It is proven already,
medically, scientifically,
it’s proven that chronic stress
can produce all kinds
of disease and conditions in
your body that you don’t want. Amen.
But praise be to God,
the antidote to this is peace.
Shalom.
Amen.
So receive that shalom, even
right now as you’re watching this.
Jesus says to you:
“Peace I leave with you.”
“I bequeath to you.
My peace I give unto you.”
“Let not your heart be troubled,
neither let it be afraid.”
So from now on, tell yourself
throughout this week:
“I’m going to do this.
Every time my heart is troubled,”
“my heart is anxious.”
“I will say this under my breath:
‘Let not your heart be troubled.’”
“‘Let not your heart be troubled.’”
Amen. Praise the Lord!
So as we’re studying
the offerings of Leviticus,
we’re actually looking at Christ
and the more you look at
the Lord Jesus, the Bible says
that in these last days,
even though we know we are
surrounded with so great
a cloud of witnesses,
all the prophets of old and
all the patriarchs and all the
people that have gone on before,
they are now in heaven,
they are cheering us on!
The Olympics just finished!
We are now in an Olympics
and we are being cheered on
by the crowd,
the onlookers in heaven
and they are cheering us on.
Hallelujah!
And the Bible says:
“looking unto Jesus.”
And the word “looking” is a
very unique Greek word.
That it’s not just a
simple word for “looking.”
It is looking away from
everything else that will distract,
unto Jesus, looking away
from everything else,
that we look for, for solution
or for answers,
we look away from all that
is of man and
look unto Jesus.
Amen.
“looking unto Jesus,
the author and finisher of faith.”
He is the author and
finisher of faith.
The word “our” is not there.
It is in the italics actually.
“The author and finisher of faith.”
The chapter before that,
Hebrews 11, talks about
the great hall of faith
and all the heroes of faith
in the great hall of faith
in Hebrews 11.
But here in Hebrews 12,
it tells us:
“looking unto Jesus.”
We look away even from
other men of faith.
Even as wonderful as they are,
we look to Jesus alone
because only He is the
author and the finisher.
And the word “finisher”
is the completer of faith.
No one has faith
the way Jesus has. Amen.
And to look to Jesus,
it’s actually faith in action!
Hallelujah!
So look away from
everything else unto Jesus,
the author and finisher of faith
and you’ll find
your faith springs eternal!
Hallelujah!
And you’re operating in faith
without even realizing it.
So the more we see Jesus,
whether it is in the Word
or we see Jesus in worship,
as the Holy Spirit
paints that vision of Jesus,
the hazon vision in our hearts,
“we are being transformed
into His same image,”
“from glory to glory even by
the Spirit of the Lord.”
Isn’t that great?
Isn’t that good news?
We all want to be transformed
into the image of Jesus. Amen.
Think about it!
That’s what it means:
“As He is, so are
we in this world.”
But you say: “But I look at myself,
and I’m nowhere close.”
“I still have all these
negative, pessimistic thoughts”
“and I still have bitterness
and resentment,”
“impatience and I’m very
touchy and sensitive.”
“I still have my mood swings
and things like that.”
“I’m nowhere close to Jesus.”
But my friend, God is saying:
“All that are just lies and when
you feel these sinful tendencies”
“and emotions and thoughts
but they’re not you.”
“They don’t define you.”
You are defined by that man
at the Father’s right hand.
That’s who you are and
the more we see that, people,
and the more we unveil that
to the people,
we are being transformed.
Not by trying, not by pulling
ourselves by our bootstraps,
not by willpower.
No, we are transformed
by beholding Jesus! Hallelujah!
And who transforms us
as we behold Jesus?
The Spirit of the Lord.
“we are transformed,
with unveiled face,”
“we are being transformed
into the same image”
“from glory to glory even by
the Spirit of the Lord.”
And where the Spirit of
the Lord is, there is liberty.
But there is an enemy
out there that wants
to steal this word
from your heart.
One, two days after you
hear this preaching,
you’ll have to meditate on it again
or hear it again because why?
There’s an enemy out there
who does not want you
to listen to truths like this,
where you are being
pointed to the Lord Jesus Christ
and the moment you do that,
you are out of yourself,
my friend!
There’s nothing
more miserable than
to be self-occupied,
occupied with your thoughts,
with your shortcomings,
with your failures, okay?
And sometimes we are occupied
with our accomplishments
and it doesn’t satisfy because
the more proud we are,
we always fall.
Yes, “Pride goes before a fall.”
the Bible says.
And whether you’re proud
or you’re feeling inferior
or you’re feeling superior,
it’s still self-occupation
but when you’re occupied
with Christ, you are being
transformed into His image.
Amen.
There is a glory on your face.
There’s a glory on your life
that you are unconscious of.
Like Moses, he wist not
that his face shone
but others can see it.
As you behold Jesus.
Amen. Praise the Lord.
