Can we pray for peace for everyone ? No more wars , no more death .

Hi Me18,

We should consider that praying for others is also praying for our self. So be careful when praying for perceived enemies. Pray for your enemies that they would become your friends. Abe Lincoln said,"Do I not destroy my enemies when I make them my friends?" So, not only can we pray for peace for everyone; it is necessary for your own peace of mind. No one who wants an enemy will fail to find one. Your peace will not be complete even if you have just one enemy.

You were created by the Mind of God in peace. Therefore you cannot find it outside His mind, but in the part of your mind that God created, BECAUSE He extended His Mind to His Creations. The other part of our divided mind has a different opposing source and must be relinquished. Peace is an attribute in you, you cannot find it outside. War, chaos, fear, sin, guilt, anger, attack, damnation, death, etc., and yes, all sickness are forms of external searching; outside the pure thoughts of the Mind of God. Health and all OPPOSITES of the above mentioned, along with COMPLETE forgiveness result in inner peace from God.

There is a silence in you in which the world cannot intrude.

There is an ancient peace you carry in your heart (mind) and have not lost.

There is a sense of holiness in you the thought of sin has never touched.

Remember, no one can know God unless he pursues Him with all their heart (mind) and listens to His Voice. God knows you only in peace. This is your reality. God is Love, and only Love.

Peace,

GOD IS

Yes ! I worry about when Paul says that we can heap coals on our enemies heads ! My mother taught me that if somebody gives me something or is kind to me that I should let them and take the gift because they will get their reward in heaven for being kind to me and if I refuse then I'm taking their reward away . My name is Melanie so I'm Mel 8 . Thankyou for your message to me .
