Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.You heard me say, ‘I am going away and I am coming back to you.’ If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I. I have told you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe. I will not say much more to you, for the prince of this world is coming. He has no hold over me, but he comes so that the world may learn that I love the Father and do exactly what my Father has commanded me.
When Jesus speaks about peace, these are life-long verses for you. This is because that Jesus is declaring the true holder of peace and His peace is different from the world's. His peace is an enduring one which won't slip away. Then He warns them of the prince of this world who is Satan. Jesus' kingdom is not of this world by Satan make his home here. He is held back now until that Day when he will be given unbridled control for those who did not seek their refuge in Christ.
Daily Prayer: Lord Jesus, give us the wisdom to seek refuge in You before that Day of the anti-Christ. On that Day, let us be found in the protection of Christ resurrected where no enemy of the King can come. In Jesus name I pray Amen.
