Today’s Kick Start!  Psalm 119:93 (CSB)
I will never forget your precepts, for you have given me life through them.

Ephesians 2:14-18 (CSB) – Peace with God is the Peace of God

14 For he is our peace, who made both groups one and tore down the dividing wall of hostility. In his flesh, 15 he made of no effect the law consisting of commands and expressed in regulations, so that he might create in himself one new man from the two, resulting in peace. 16 He did this so that he might reconcile both to God in one body through the cross by which he put the hostility to death. 17 He came and proclaimed the good news of peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near. 18 For through him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father.


God, does not change; He is the same yesterday, today, and forever—The Messiah!
Segregation is one word that has left a bad taste in the mouth, so bad that mouth wash and a calm spirit cannot erase. In the days of the apostle, Paul segregation between Jew and the Gentile over religious divisions was at the point, such as we see in our cultural divisions today, enough said regarding today's cultural and political unrest.

Jesus is the Christ/Messiah, today Christendom has forgotten that Jesus is the peace that gives peace to all who will accept Him as 'peacemaker'. This being ‘peace with God’ and the ‘peace of God’. If we truly accept His abolishment of enmity (unfriendliness) with God we will also understand that we have the peace of God to have victory over all unrest—cultural or political. This is not some ‘pie in the sky’ religious nonsense.

We, especially God’s Children have a ‘real-time’ experience with PEACE and if we fail to live at peace with God and with our neighbor we are committing SIN. James 4:17 So it is sin to know the good and yet not do it. We have ‘real-time’ access and communication with the Father through the Holy Spirit. Do not give up your peace with God and your fellow man, “PEACE MATTERS to GOD, as His Son revealed this to us on His day of crucifixion. God is pleased with HIS SON. Do you have peace with God?

The Devotional – Search the Scriptures – 203 Luke 21:7   –   So they asked Him, saying, “Teacher, but when will these things be? And what sign will there be when these things are about to take place?” Matthew 24:3 – Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?” Mark 13:4 – “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign when all these things will be fulfilled?” Jesus, the Christ of God/Messiah Yesterday we looked briefly at the First coming of the LORD Jesus, born of the virgin Mary, suffered and crucified, killed by the power of sin of which we all had and have a part in. He rose from this death; He is alive again . The apostle Paul writes, “For I deliver to you first of all that which I also received that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose

The Devotional – Search the Scriptures – 169 Luke 14:7-14 - So He told a parable to those who were invited, when He noted how they chose the best places, saying to them: “When you are invited by anyone to a wedding feast, do not sit down in the best place, lest one more honorable than you be invited by him; “and he who invited you and him come and say to you, ‘Give place to this man,’ and then you begin with shame to take the lowest place. “But when you are invited, go and sit down in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may say to you, ‘Friend, go up higher.’ Then you will have glory in the presence of those who sit at the table with you. “For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted. Then He also said to him who invited Him, “When you give a dinner or a supper, do not ask your friends, your brothers, your relatives, nor rich neighbors, lest they also invite you back, and you be repaid. “But when you give a fea

The Devotional – Search the Scriptures – 161.1 SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:   Luke 12:1-5 There were present at that season some who told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And Jesus answered and said to them, “Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things? “I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. “Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem? “I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.” Jesus, the Christ of God/Messiah An excerpt from yesterday’s devotional: In our passage, the point of the LORD is not that of being a newscaster but placing the death of these people beyond human judgment, in fact; Jesus does not look at the death of human beings as we do. All humans, past present and future will die a ph
