Andrew Wommack Devotional 17 December 2023 – Let God’s Peace Lead You

Topic: Let God’s Peace Lead You

Luke 24:36: “And as they thus spake, Jesus stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. “

Just as every sport has disputes that must be settled by the officials, the Peace of God is the umpire who decides all disputes about God’s will for our lives. We must learn to listen to and heed the Peace of God in our hearts.

God’s Peace is something that every born-again believer has. It’s a fruit of the Spirit. That Peace is always umpiring; we just don’t always pay attention. How often have you acted contrary to the Peace in your heart and experienced disaster afterward? You say, “I never did feel good about that.” That was the Peace of God umpiring, but we chose to play by our own rules.

There are some things we can do to facilitate the Peace of God umpiring in our hearts. First, consider ALL the options. Many wrong decisions have been made because only some votes were considered. Don’t let fear rule out God’s possibilities. Next, use your imagination to explore what will happen with each choice. You should be able to discern a greater peace as you consider the option the Lord would have you take. That is not to say there will be total Peace with any choices. There will be complete Peace over the right choice in your Spirit, but we aren’t always totally in her Spirit, and it is not unusual for some turmoil to exist. Just as an umpire has to make a call, be bold enough to follow the direction that gives you the most Peace.

The rudder on a ship can only go in directions once the boat moves. The boat doesn’t have to go full steam ahead for the rudder to work, but it must be moving. Likewise, we have to act before the Peace of God will give us perfect direction. Even if you make a mistake, you will have made it in faith, trying to follow the Peace of God in your heart. The Lord can bless a wrong decision made in confidence from a pure heart more than He can bless indecision (Rom. 14:23).
