GOD IS PEACE

So Gideon built an altar to the LORD there and called it “The LORD is Peace.” [Judges 6:24]

Peace is not an external absence of conflict but an inner sense of assurance that all will be well because your heavenly Father cares for you. The God of peace is in control of the world and when we submit to Him and trust Him totally, we will experience peace even when everything around us is in chaos. Too often we worry because we haven’t learned to trust God in all things and so we deprive ourselves of peace. Lay all your worries and concerns at His feet and you will experience His peace. The peace that passes all understanding.

You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts you. [Isaiah 26:3]

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. [Romans 5:1]

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. [Romans 15:13]

Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. [Colossians 3:15]

The LORD gives strength to His people; the LORD blesses His people with peace. [Psalm 29:11]

Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you. [2 Thessalonians 3:16]

If God be our God He will give us peace in trouble. When there is a storm without, He will make peace within. The world can create trouble in peace, but God can create peace in trouble. [Thomas Watson]
