Peace In The Clouds

John 14:27
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.
John 6:63
It is the Spirit who gives life, the flesh is no help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.
Hebrews 12:2
looking to Jesus the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right of the throne of God.
I love what Jesus says in John 6:63, that the flesh is no help at all. When we give into the desires of the flesh we lose sight of the Lord. For the Lord is spirit. The flesh tends to get in the way. So start looking unto Jesus the founder and perfecter of our faith. He will give you peace not just any peace but HIS peace. That is the difference. The world offers so many things to try and promote peace or solitude, but there is nothing like His peace. So stay focused and looked unto Him for He is even in the clouds that you may be going through, which in Nahum 1:3 it says The clouds are the dust of His feet... That is a sign that the Lord is there through your sorrow, suffering, or many different circumstances in our personal lives. And in those clouds He is teaching us faith. (My Upmost For His Highest) God is not trying to always teach us something in the clouds, He may want us to unlearn something. I like this: His purpose in using the cloud is to simplify our beliefs until our relationship with Him is exactly like that of a child- a relationship simply between God and our soul.
So when you see the clouds coming just know that is the dust from His feet and he is right there in the middle, allow Him to teach you to have that child like faith and have a true relationship with Him completely between Him and your soul. Move the flesh out of the way and trust Him for His peace is there for you.
Praise Him and glorify Him for He is Lord of Lords and King of Kings and His mercy endures forever. Amen!!!!
