THE PEACE GAUGES


My Dear Precious Child,
   Anger is the enemy of peace.  Just like there are gauges in the teachings of Jesus Christ relating to loving others, gauges which reveal whether you are acting from My love or the devil's hate, there are also gauges which reveal to you if you are acting and reacting to other people from My Holy Spirit's power of peace or whether you are acting and reacting to other people from the devil's negative energy of anger.  My peace brings peace into your life and your world but if you act or react with the devil's anger you authorize him to bring more conflict and destruction into your life and into your world. 
    In the first teaching of Jesus Christ after He was baptized in My Holy Spirit and after He was tested and tempted by the devil, He identified My children by saying, "Fortunate, happy and blessed are the peacemakers because they are called the children of God."  That is Gauge Number 1 for you to assess whether you are motivated by Me or whether you merely call yourself by My name but your actions and reactions prove otherwise.  Jesus gave a clear, precise identification of My real children, and that identification was not that they call themselves by My name.  He said that the people who make peace with everyone in their lives are identified in the earth as My children, regardless of whether they call themselves by My name or not. (Matthew 5:9)
     Gauge Number 2 from Jesus, which is a good gauge for you of whether you are a peacemaker or whether you are not qualified to be called My child, is when He contrasted the religious and political law at the time with My desire for you.  He said that the laws tell you not to kill anyone, but Jesus went even further into the cause of angry actions; that being the demon behind killing someone, which is the devil's demon of anger.  He described an action or reaction from you which identifies that your words come from the devil's anger when He said that if you act of react from the devil's anger and call a person a derogatory name such as fool, idiot, repulsive, or any other inflammatory name, that you are, in essence, killing the person because you have deemed the person to be worthless in your estimation.  He said you have robbed the person of worthiness in that act of anger.  In addition He said that you are in danger of being ministered to by the devil's judgment because your action was from hell, meaning that you will answer to hell's fire coming into your own life because you have killed a person's sense of worth in his own eyes, which is the destruction of the person.  That is not from My ministry of peace.  It is from the devil's anger which killed the soul of a person by declaring the person unworthy of your respect.
   Jesus said If you bind yourself in loyalty and admiration to a politician who calls himself or herself by My name and yet regularly calls people by derogatory names, destroying the worth of those people, then you have bound yourself to a hypocrite.  Jesus said that your virtues must be higher than the hypocritical religious and political leaders or you will never experience My kingdom of heaven in your life on earth.(Matthew 5:20; Matthew 23:13) 
   In furthering the truth of Gauge Number 2, Jesus Christ went further in telling you the importance of making peace with everyone whom you have become angry and called a derogatory name.  He said that if you are making offerings of praise to Me and remember that someone has something against you, then you should leave, go and be reconciled with the person, and then go back and offer your praise offering to Me again. (Matthew 5:21-26) He said to come to terms in a spirit of unity with the person by apologizing to the person whose worthiness you destroyed.  What you do to the least of My children, you do to me. (Matthew 25:40)
    To amplify this truth, My Holy Spirit wrote through the prophet James about the power of words.  He wrote that the tongues of people are set on fire by hell itself when you curse other people who are made in My image.  He said that you curse other people by using poisonous words and then you bless Me out of the same mouth.  He said it should not be so. (James 3:8-12)  James confirmed the teaching of Jesus about angry words and what they do to other people in your life.  He said that angry words come from hell itself and are set on fire by hell. (James 3:6) James mirrored the warning of Jesus Christ, that keeping peace with everyone is My desire for all of My children.
    James gave even more emphasis to the truth taught by Jesus about becoming a peacemaker.  First he identified defaming words that come from anger to be animalistic and devilish.  He said where there is jealousy and ambition there is disharmony and wickedness of every kind.  Then he wrote about the benefits of being peacemakers, saying that My wisdom that comes from My family of peace is pure, makes for peace, is kind and considerate, full of compassion and goodness.  He said that My words are never hypocritical or partial to anyone. 
    My Holy Spirit through James revealed the benefits of your keeping peace with everyone.  He wrote that peacemakers work diligently to keep peace with everyone, and in sowing peace they sow seeds which bear the fruit of My blessings in their lives.  (James 3:13-18)
    Gauge your own attitudes and make sure that you do not yield to the devil's temptation to become angry which results in killing another person either physically, emotionally or spiritually.  If you yield to the anger, you cease being a peacemaker.  If you do yield to anger, when you finally realize that you have yielded to sin you must make peace with everyone whom you have injured, making yourself a peacemaker again.  You must be emissaries of My peace in the world to be called My children. Jesus Christ said it.
    Your Peace Loving Father
