Titles: He makes wars to cease.
“The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; He uttered His voice, the earth melted. The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah Come, behold the works of the LORD, Who has made desolations in the earth. He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariot in the fire.”Psalms 46:6-9 NKJV.
The God of Jesus Christ desires that we live in peace. That is why His word says in 1Timothy 2: 1-2 NKJV: "Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.
Here we are urged, persuaded and encouraged to pray and give thanks not just for ourselves but for all men and women everywhere- across planet Earth for rulers and those in authority so that there may be peace and we may all live in peace.
”Point of reflection:
Take time today to give thanks, pray and intercede for all men but remembering particularly kings, rulers, leaders, presidents, prime ministers , army commanders and all who are in authority so that there may be peace and quiet. As you pray today present your petitions to the Almighty God who when He utters His voice the earth melts, who breaks the bow and the spear in two,(who nullifies weapons of war) who burns the chariots in the fire (who nullifies vehicles of war). He has power over weapons of war including the jet fighters and missile launchers. He says He (Almighty God who sits between the Cherubims) makes wars to cease to the ends of the earth.
On this day take time to pray for peace across planet earth: start by praying for peace in your nation and wars near you and continue praying for peace in Middle East, Western Europe, Africa (DRC Congo, South Sudan, Eritrea, Central Africa, West Africa,) Ukraine and Baltic States, Afghanistan, El-Timor, Sri-Lanka, Northern Ireland, Mexico, USA. Australia, India, Pakistan. and others you may know not listed here.
