 Blessed In More Ways Than One   
  
Romans 5:1
>1Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God
through our Lord Jesus Christ,   
We are not trying to get peace with God. We already have peace with God,
having been justified by faith through our Lord Jesus Christ. This peace
with God brings us the peace of God, which guards our hearts and minds.
(Philippians 4:7) Then, the peace of God inside us will also translate into
the peace of Godoutside us - in all our outward circumstances. 
 
Firstly, we will find that what would normally cause us much care and
anxiety will no longer be the case. Secondly, not only will everything turn
out well, but we will also be blessed in more ways than one. This is what
happens when Jesus, the Prince of Peace, is our peace. 
 
A church member, though stricken with cancer, enjoyed the peace of God,
knowing that He was her healer. She later received confirmation from two
different doctors that she had been completely healed of cancer. In
addition to receiving her blessing of complete healing, she also received
from her insurance company a critical illness claim of S$50,000! 
 
Another church member, upon hearing news of her retrenchment, committed
the matter to God, believing that He would work all things out for her,
especially her loss of a regular income. Shortly after, she received her
retrenchment package - a substantial five-figure sum. And within days of
her retrenchment, she received calls from her contacts in the industry,
offering her jobs, two of which were jobs in well-known multinational
corporations (MNCs). 
 
At that time, she had not yet started looking for a job, so the calls
were unexpected but welcomed. She finally opted to work for one of the MNCs
- a dream come true for her - at a salary that was 30 per cent more than
her previous one! When she simply prayed, "Abba Father, I trust You to look
after me," and rested in His love and peace, she was abundantly blessed. 
 
Beloved, because Jesus is your peace, you are blessed in more ways than
one. Your soul will prosper. Your health will prosper. Your finances will
prosper. Your loved ones will be taken care of. Your relationships will
flourish. You will enjoy the favor of God. All because you have the Prince
of Peace!
