Blessed are the Peacemakers
Matt. 5:9
The Lord Jesus Himself pronounced blessings on the peacemakers. Who are the peacemakers? What do they do? Peacemakers are those who facilitate peace between one person and another. Wherever there is conflict, a child of God is supposed to bring peace to the situation. There could be conflict between members of the congregation. There can be conflict within a family, between husband and wife or between parent and child. There can be conflict within the community where one lives. The Christian is to be like the Master who went about doing good. Your life as a child of God must impact positively on others as a peace maker. God also promises to release His blessings to the peace makers.
POINT OF EMPHASIS: You are blessed by God if you are a peacemaker.
PRAYER POINT: Lord, make me a peacemaker so that I can receive Your blessing.
