Products Of Lack Of Peace Of God


How do you know when you lack the peace of God? What should you beware of if God’s peace is to remain intact within you? The peace of the Lord is the checks and balance of a glorious, fruitful and successful life. There are numerous signs or products of the absence of this peace. This article lists the signs.

And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams, wherewith his spirit was troubled, and his sleep brake from him – Daniel 2:1 (KJV)

I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart. My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me - Psalm 38:8, 10 (KJV)

In the day shalt thou make thy plant to grow, and in the morning shalt thou make thy seed to flourish: but the harvest shall be a heap in the day of grief and of desperate sorrow– Isaiah 17:11 (KJV)

Peace is a state of being calm and quiet: a state of living in friendship with somebody without arguing or fighting- (Oxford advanced learner’s dictionary). It is also a state of having hope, being at rest and absolute trust on God. 

Therefore, it is important that you are quick to identify the products of lack of peace of God. This is because dealing with them promptly will prevent them from growing into more destructive products. God wants you to be free of these manifestations in your life.

Some of these products are inward manifestations, and would have eating up the victim before manifesting outwardly. That’s the reason why they must be identified early and dealt with as fast as possible. 

The products:

1.       Torments – mental suffering is an evidence that the peace of the Lord is absent in your life. God’s peace provides a soothing effect mentally. 
2.       Insecurity – Lack of confidence in God’s ability to protect makes you insecure. But the peace of God releases this confidence within you.
3.       Sleepless nights – Sleep is always far from a troubled mind.
4.       Absent-mindedness – When you are troubled and you dwell in the cause of it, you tend to be absent-minded. Read more...
