THE PEACE ACCORD

April 20, 2015 · Lanre Oyeleke · 145 views

Rom12:18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.

Before the 2015 presidential election in Nigeria, a peace accord deal was brokered and the two major contenders were made to sign a written document that would ensure that there won't be post election violence. The aftermath of the election was peaceful and the incumbent president conceded defeat.

As believers, the word of God has enjoined us to ensure that we live peaceably with all men by all means possible within our capacity. I am against anything that will cause chaos and pandemonium either in the society or the family and I know God does too.

If anyone in your office, neighbourhood or family is becoming a thorn in your flesh, with the help of God, do your best to relate peacefully with such a fellow. It may be a littile discomforting trying to ensure that peace reigns but it will pay-off at the end of the day. We can make the world a better place to live if we all endeavour to live at peace with one another.

Action point

Father, l receive grace to live at peace with all men even with the most difficult person In Jesus name.
