“Therefore, since we have been made right in God’s sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us.”
Romans 5:1 NLT
Before coming to Christ we were at enmity with God. We were determined to live our own way, but now we are submitted to God there is peace.
Living in a house with a resentful teenager is not pleasant. The teenager has swallowed the lie that the parents are against him and acts accordingly. This is how we were with God. We had believed the lie that God was against us and ran from Him.
Satan is the liar. He tells us God is against us and foolishly we believe it. However, when we come to Christ we are delivered from the lie. Peace comes like a river to our souls. Oh the joy of peace!
