1 Peter 3:11 (NKJV) 11 Let him turn away from evil and do good; Let him seek peace and pursue it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The more of God we get in us, the more at peace we will\u00a0be.<\/p>\n

How do we get more of God?\u00a0We turn away from\u00a0evil\u00a0ways\u00a0and\u00a0do good.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Sin is what puts distance between us and God. If we can be fresh in His word every day, through reading and prayer, our spirit will be quick to listen and hear what the Holy Spirit is reminding us of; what to do and NOT to do.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Holy Spirit will convict us, whether we are in the process <\/em>of doing something or just starting <\/em>to do something, He doesn’t care. He will let us know.<\/p>\n

He doesn’t\u00a0wait for a\u00a0convenient\u00a0time. He just moves, and we are to listen and act accordingly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

For instance, maybe we are out and about among friends, and they seem to be having fun. Maybe they begin doing things that we know aren’t good. But the next thing we know, we are going along with it all.<\/p>\n

It’s in those moments when we get tempted or off track, and we start to\u00a0go\u00a0down the wrong road, that He will pipe up, tap us on the shoulder or quicken our spirit. And He will remind us who we are in Christ.<\/p>\n

It doesn’t matter to Him who may get offended by it. He’s there to be our Helper and He does an excellent job of it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

None of us are perfect. God knows when we are slipping and need Help.\u00a0Stay in His word. Be prayerful and listen when He is tapping us on our shoulder. Turn away from what is wrong and do what is good.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Seek peace and pursue\u00a0it! Amen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
