Welcome to Hank’s Place in the year 2022
Jesus just before His arrest said to His disciples, “I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace. In the world you have tribulation and distress and suffering, but be courageous [be confident, be undaunted, be filled with joy]; I have overcome the world.” [My conquest is accomplished, My victory abiding.] John 16:33 Amplified Bible.
Jesus offers us believers PEACE — in Him, and His PEACE is perfect. OFFERS us, for it says, “…that you MAY have peace” – like a child hearing his mother say he ‘may’ have a cookie. As the child has permission to take the cookie, those early disciples were told things to come so when the crazy things began to happen, they could choose to stay in Jesus, for in Him is perfect peace. And we, as we stay in HIM, and don’t freak out over what’s happening in the world, will also have this perfect peace.
Jesus told us, “in the world we have tribulation, distress, suffering.” Yikes!! Not a maybe: the world is — in a mess and we are in the world. Well, so what…. because, and most importantly, we are in Jesus.
Whether or not we have His perfect peace though, depends upon… our BELIEVING we are in Jesus. The Jesus who holds all authority, all power, all ability, all the all’s! We are not talking a wimpy God here! We choose to see ourselves held firmly in His mighty hands, seated in the heavenlies with Him. Eph 2:6.
Be courageous, confident, undaunted, and filled with JOY in 2022: for this is going to be a GREAT GREAT YEAR for all believers — a COME ALIVE year!
