The seed as peace



You can’t have the seed of God inside you and not be at peace. Not the normal peace that comes from our bulk of achievement so He said;

“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let it be afraid” John 14V27

The world is experiencing so much turmoil today like never before just like Jesus said in John 15v33 that in the world we will have tribulations but we should be of good cheers, He (the seed) has overcome the world. To supplement the scripture above on the type of peace the carrier of God’s seed should have is Philippians 4v6-7 which says;

“Be anxious for nothing....And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus”

Interesting! This is the level of peace we as God’s children should operate in this age but unfortunately the reverse is the case. Let’s have a look at one man who operated under the atmosphere of this peace.

The children of God are supposed to be a terror to the kingdom of darkness which was the situation in the case of Elisha in 2kings 6 when a search was declared of the man of God. Scripture says that the servant of the man of God woke up to see armies all over the place to capture his master and he said, I am sure with tears rolling down his face

“...Alas, my master! How shall we do?” 2king 6v15

One would have expected his master to panic but hear him;

“And he answered, Fear not: for they that are with us are more than they that are with them” 2kings 6v16

Wao! I am enjoying this myself, so peaceful and no running around.  He knew what he was carrying naturally entitled him to an in visible security that can never be over powered. Anyway is it not who you see that you overpower? He simply addressed the vision of his servant through the seed he also carried by praying for him;

“...Lord, I pray thee, open his eyes that he may see and the Lord opened the eyes of the young man: and he saw: and, behold the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha” 2kings6v17

Did you see that? Until you are able to see correctly, you are not entitled to this peace, which is another way of awakening ones’ consciousness. To see also in this context could mean to know. So the big question here is what do you see or know about yourself? Remember that ignorance they say is not an excuse in the court of law. However God confirms that many are destroyed for lack of knowledge, Hosea 4v6.

Furthermore in 1John 4v4, Apostle John emphasized;

“Ye are of God, Little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world”

You are not just going to fight. You were born a winner. That’s why you are called more than Conquerors in Romans 8v37. The disciples of Jesus caught a revelation of their inner strength such that when He (Jesus) was rejected in Samaria, they asked;

“...wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven and consume them...” Luke 9v54

They had seen it work for Elisha in 2King 2v9-12 but hear Jesus’ response;

“...Ye know not what manner of Spirit ye are of” Luke 9v55b
In other words, whatever you command will be granted and since we are not here on earth to destroy but save, keep your spirits or words under check. You can’t carry the seed of God and go about talking any how to such an extent that you mar your own life. However, everyone will account for every idle word spoken, Matthew 12v36.

The type of words that exude your mouth goes a long way in determining the type of spirit at work in you. Your word is an acid test for your world. You can’t be talking poverty and expect prosperity. These are two parallel lines that will never meet.

Conclusively, when you know, you will be at peace. For instance, I am not anxious as to whether I will amount to anything in life because greatness as been wired into me so, I cannot but have my place among Kings.

A Pastor prayed for me one day and when he finished he asked me, are you from a royal family? I said no (as it were) sir and I said, why sir? He said because I see you (me) dine with kings. In my heart, that’s true because I knew the Spirit that dwelt on my inside. I went to an office where a friend of mine served at a time to check something and after some time my friend turned at me and said, why is your face glittering like someone who has just returned from an overseas tour. Friend as at that time I had not being on an air plane before let alone flying abroad. There was some thing on my inside that cannot afford to be dormant. It has nothing to do with where you live. 

Be good because you will be great. You will eat the good of this land if and only you obey, Isaiah 1v19. Obey who? the seed of God in you, because He teaches you the way to profit, Isaiah 48v17b.
