Day 139 of 365: Part 3 – Shoes of Peace

Walking Steadily Through Chaos

Greetings, Precious Family. May the Peace of the Lord be with you always.

Family, tonight is Part 3 of the mini nugget series of the Full Amour of God from Ephesians 6:10-18. Specifically, tonight’s mini nugget is on The Shoes of the Gospel of Peace. 

Key Scripture:

“…with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.”  Ephesians 6:15

Devotional Focus:

Peace is not the absence of trouble; it is stability in the middle of it. God gives believers spiritual footing so they do not slip when life becomes uncertain.

Life Application:

You may walk through stressful seasons, painful diagnoses, family struggles, financial pressure, or emotional exhaustion, but God’s peace keeps you moving forward one faithful step at a time.

Remember one of the last statements Jesus made regarding Peace in John 14:27?

Jesus said, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” He is our Peace. Jesus’ promised to always be with us in the form of the Comforter, the Holy Spirit. It is for that reason that I begin most of my prayers with, “Spirit of the Living God”.

Let Us Pray

Spirit of the Living God, In a world filled with chaos, uncertainty, and distraction, help us to walk daily in Your peace. Let the Shoes of Peace remind us that we were never called to walk in fear, anger, confusion, or worry, but in the calm assurance that You are always with us.

Where there is division, teach us to carry peace. Where there is anxiety, teach us to trust You. Where there is weariness, remind us that Your presence strengthens us for every step ahead.

Lord, make us ready to stand firm in faith and to carry the message of Your love everywhere we go. Let our words, actions, and hearts reflect the peace that only comes through You.

May we walk boldly, steadily, and faithfully, knowing that the Gospel of Peace guides every step. Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer as we lift them up to you.

And we let it be…And so it is…

Amen, Amen, and Amen

He Is Our Comfort

Greetings, Precious Family:

May the Peace of the Lord be with you always.

As we continue our series on salvation, holiness, and sanctification, I want to remind us that our greatest and most precious gift that we are given, after salvation, is the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.

Jesus promised that after he ascended into heaven that he would send the Comforter to walk with us and remind us of what Jesus taught and would bring back to remembrance the Holy Scriptures.

The Holy Spirit of God is our greatest gift, as it leads us to walk in the Holy Path. When we hear the still small voice inside of us, we can be assured that God is keeping His promise to us.

May you walk closely and tenderly with God each and every day of your life. Ask the Holy Spirit of God for direction and counsel in every area of your life. He is faithful to keep his promises.

Holy Scriptures

John 14:23-29

Tree of Life Version

23 Yeshua answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word. My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our dwelling with him. 24 He who does not love Me does not keep My words. And the word you hear is not Mine, but the Father’s who sent Me. 25 These things I have spoken to you while dwelling with you. 26 But the Helper, the Ruach ha-Kodesh whom the Father will send in My name, will teach you everything and remind you of everything that I said to you.

27 Shalom I leave you, My shalom I give to you; but not as the world gives! Do not let your heart be troubled or afraid. 28 You’ve heard Me say, ‘I am going away and I am coming back to you.’ If you loved Me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father, because the Father is greater than I. 29 I have told you now before it happens, so that when it happens you may believe!
