Defender Daily Devotion: Peacemaker
Description
Are you genuinely a peacemaker, or are you just faking peace to keep the peace at work? Discover what it really means to be set apart and bring lasting peace—even when the world around you is in chaos.
Pastor Brian Noble, from the Family Policy Institute of Washington, delivers a daily devotional centered on the biblical concept of peace. Drawing from Romans 1:7, Psalm 4:8, and Matthew 5:9–12, he encourages listeners to embrace peace that comes from God, even amid personal or professional challenges. Noble contrasts “peace fakers,” “peace breakers,” and true “peacemakers,” urging believers to stand for righteousness, even if it invites persecution or insult. Through practical examples and scriptural references, he reminds Christians to demonstrate authentic peace in their environments, as an outflow of the Holy Spirit, and to do so boldly yet lovingly. The devotional concludes with encouragement to reflect Christ in public life and a prayer seeking God's guidance and peace for the day.
