Jesus said, “My peace I leave with you.” Very likely, when we pray, peace is often what we ask for - peace in the world, peace at home, and maybe most of all, peace in our relationships - but what did Jesus mean when He said His peace? And how could that make a difference in our problem relationships today? If you or someone you know is struggling with a difficult relationship, this message is for you.

Introduction: Three approaches to peace

  • Inward
  • Outward
  • Upward

The world’s peace: The absence of disturbance and hostility, free from internal and external strife.

God’s peace: Shalom

  1. Complete soundness or wholeness of health
  2. Harmony in relationships
  3. Success and fulfillment of purpose
  4. Victory over one’s enemies

Choosing peace in relational conflict -Philippians 4:1-5

  • The context: Philippians 4:1
  • The plea for unity: Philippians 4:2
  • The request for competent counsel: Philippians 4:3
  • The command concerning relational focus: Philippians 4:4
  • The command concerning personal responsibility: Philippians 4:5

5 ways to diffuse relational conflict:

  1. Resolve to stop procrastinating. -Philippians 4:1
  2. Re-evaluate your expectations. -Philippians 4:2
  3. Get competent, outside help. -Philippians 4:3
  4. Refuse to allow one relationship to ruin your life. -Philippians 4:4
  5. Remember, a right response is more important than being right. -Philippians 4:5
