DO YOU WANT TO HAVE A PEACEFUL LIFE?
I do, and I am sure you do, too. However, we have to do something to make it happen.
1 Timothy 2:1-2 says, "I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men; for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may LEAD A QUIET AND PEACEABLE LIFE in all godliness and honesty."
We know this Scripture, but do we do it? We have to be faithful to the prerequisite if we want the promise.
When you gather your family together for Family Worship each morning and evening, don't forget to pray for your nation, pray leadership (which is in desperate need of prayer) and for all those God lays upon your heart. Get everyone in the family to pray, right down to the littlest one who is learning to talk. God hears the sincere prayers of children.
When Judah was taken captive to Babylon, the prophet came to them with a word from the Lord of Hosts reminding them that if they wanted to live in peace they must pray for their city in which they live (Jeremiah 29:7).
