Daily Scripture Interactive Study for August 23, 2022

[Dr. Dorothy E. Hooks, PsyD]

Hello everyone, I pray you all and your families are well!! Beginning today, and throughout the next several weeks, our regular daily scripture, will change to an interactive scripture study. This way, you all can be more proactive with your daily scripture reading; the interactive scripture study, is a deeper study of the scriptures. Let’s DIVE into the Word of God!! Are you ready? Let’s go!!

Our Scripture for today is coming from John 14:27 NKJV:

“Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”

What is YOUR observation of John 14:27 NKJV? What do YOU see?

My observation of John 14:27 is: When I read the words of John 14:27, it was as if Jesus was speaking directly to me. Jesus was assuring me, that HIS Peace would guard my heart and mind when trouble came. Therefore, when trouble come, do not allow my heart to be troubled, or afraid – Jesus got me!!

What is God saying to YOU today, as YOU read John 14:27 NKJV? How can YOU apply John 14:27 to YOUR life?

When I read John 14:27, Jesus let me know that He HAS left me HIS Peace. Therefore, when trouble or fear comes to shake me, distract me from my purpose, I will remember (Holy Spirit will remind me if I forget) that I have Jesus’ Peace, living in my heart. And not only is Jesus’ Peace living in my heart, Jesus, Father, Holy Spirit is living in my spirit man. Therefore, I will draw strength from them, and NOTHING can stand against me!!

What is YOUR prayer from John 14:27 NKJV?

My prayer from John 14:27: Thank You Father, Thank You Jesus, Thank You Holy Spirit, for Your Peace; the Peace that surpasseth ALL my understanding; the Peace that guards my heart and mind, when trouble arise!! I KNOW that Your Peace Jesus, will sustain me in ANY situation I face. Therefore, I CHOOSE NOT to ALLOW my heart to be troubled or be afraid!! I have a choice, to allow fear to rule, or Your Peace to rule Jesus, and I CHOOSE Your Peace!! I love You Father!!! I love You Jesus!!! I love You Holy Spirit!!! Amen!
