Peaceful family life – Stella Ramola

“I will also give you rest from all your enemies. “’The LORD declares to you that the LORD himself will establish a house for you:” 2 Samuel 7:11
Dear friend, God’s promise for today is from 2 Samuel 7:11, “I will also give you rest from all your enemies. “’The LORD declares to you that the LORD himself will establish a house for you:”” Yes, when we think of a home, we think of love, togetherness and unity. But you might be wondering, “I have no love in my house. There are constant disagreements so we are not able to talk to each. My parents think I am a disappointment and they don’t love me.”

There might not be love in your home, or you might be waiting so many years for a life partner to build a family life or you might have to go into a new home after marriage and you might wonder, “What if they don’t accept me? What if they don’t consider me as their own family member?” Or you might be saying, “I have no one to call as my family member.” But amidst all such circumstances, God is going to establish a family for you, a beautiful family life for you.
So what do you need to achieve this? Surrender yourself and your family members unto God. Keep God as the head of your family. He Himself will teach you how you need to talk to your family members. He will show His love through you to them, to be tolerant whenever there are arguments, to be patient and enjoy joy in your home. He will establish your home. Whenever you give your family into the hands of God, He will grant the blessing in Isaiah 32:18, “My people will live in peaceful dwelling places, in secure homes, in undisturbed places of rest.” He will give you peace, joy, rest and love. So experience this from this day forward.
Prayer:
Loving Father,

There are many disturbances in my home. There is no peace. Grant me the blessings I am waiting for. Establish my family life and give me a peaceful home. Be the head of my family. Teach me how to be patient with them and fill my house with joy, rest, peace and love.

In Jesus’ precious name, I pray. Amen.
