Luke 10:5-6 (NLT)
“Whenever you enter someone’s home, first say, ‘May God’s peace be on this house.’ If those who live there are peaceful, the blessing will stand; if they are not, the blessing will return to you.”
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Jesus sent His disciples with very specific orders: speak peace every time you enter someone else’s “house,” be they individuals, families, companies, schools or governments.
His instructions to us have not changed. Take Jesus literally when you step into a building––any building: first say, “Peace be to this house.”
That peace is His peace, and when you release it, it will go before you to open the way for you and for whatever your business is there, and beyond that, it will start something transformational in that place.
If whoever is there receives it, your purpose and the Lord’s will be fulfilled; otherwise, it will come back to you. You will not lose anything; on the contrary, you will sow blessing, and eventually a multiplied harvest will come.
You may want to pray something like this: Father God, I thank You for this instruction and insight. I want Your peace to go before me in everything I do and in every conversation I engage in. Help me to be diligent and faithful in making my greeting transformational! In the name of Jesus, Amen!
Have a blessed day!
