Collisions 3:15-17- 15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. 17 And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
When you let something rule over you, what’s it doing? It’s in control.
We need to the peace of Christ control us.
Let the Word dwell richly in you. What happens when you dwell on something? It engulfs you. It controls your thoughts. It can rule over you.
You’ll hear people say to people who are troubled, don’t dwell on it.
My word to you regarding Jesus and His Word is to dwell on it. Let it control your thoughts, actions and let it rule over you.
Do everything in the name of Jesus. You won’t regret it. You’re not going to stand in front of the Lord and have Him look at you and say, “Really, I mean c’mon did you really have to give me that much love and attention?”
No. You can’t out give the Lord on time or resources. But we can certainly not give enough.
Let the Peace of Christ rule over you, nothing else.
