"A Wonderful Treasury for the People of God Whose Treasure Is In Heaven - Devotional and Practical Observations On Select Passages of Scripture for Every Day of The Year!"
"Two easy ways to follow the Faith's Checkbook Devotions to completion: Follow the small calendar dates on each page, or follow the other set of numerals ("001" to "366") inserted below calendar date. On the latter method you can start at any date and follow numerically to the end."
"Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you." (Philippians 4:9)
It is well when a man can with advantage be so minutely copied as Paul might have been.
Oh, for grace to imitate him this day and every day!
Should we, through divine grace, carry into practice the Pauline teaching, we may claim
the promise which is now open before us; and what a promise it is! God, who loves peace,
makes peace, and breathes peace, will be with us. "Peace be with you" is a sweet benediction;
but for the God of peace to be with us is far more. Thus we have the fountain as well as
the streams, the sun as well as his beams. If the God of peace be with us, we shall enjoy
the peace of God which passeth all understanding, even though outward circumstances should
threaten to disturb. If men quarrel, we shall be sure to be peacemakers, if the Maker of
peace be with us.
It is in the way of truth that real peace is found. If we quit the faith or leave the path
of righteousness under the notion of promoting peace, we shall be greatly mistaken. First
pure, then peaceable, is the order of wisdom and of fact. Let us keep to Paul's line, and
we shall have the God of peace with us as He was with the apostle.
