Peace Of God

Ever since the Fall, when sin entered the world, fear and chaos have tried to torment, shape and affect us. It’s hard to make decisions when they are flooding our mind. Thankfully, God offers us peace that passes understanding. He offers clarity instead of confusion. It’s up to us on whether we will allow the Prince of Peace to guard our heart and mind. He has not given us a spirit of fear. He has given us His peace for every situation. It is a gift from God to you if you will receive it.

Here are some Bible verses on the peace that God gives:

1. I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.

John 14:27 NLT

2. Now may the Lord of peace himself give you his peace at all times and in every situation. The Lord be with you all.

2 Thessalonians 3:16 NLT

3. You will guard him and keep him in perfect and constant peace whose mind [both its inclination and its character] is stayed on You, because he commits himself to You, leans on You, and hopes confidently in You.

Isaiah 26:3 AMP

4. GOD makes his people strong. GOD gives his people peace.

Psalm 29:11 MSG

5. I listen carefully to what God the LORD is saying, for he speaks peace to his faithful people. But let them not return to their foolish ways.

Psalms 85:8 NLT

God’s Gift Of Peace

On the night Jesus was born into this world, the Bible says there were shepherds tending their flocks near Bethlehem. Out of nowhere an Angel appeared and scared them. He immediately tried to calm their fears by telling them not to be afraid. He told them he was bringing the good news of the Savior’s birth. Then suddenly a heavenly host of angels appeared with him and they began to sing and glorify God. Luke 2:12 says they sang, “Glory to God in highest heaven, and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased” (NLT). Their announcement was a reminder to us that God sent the Prince of Peace to earth to bring us peace no matter our situation.

On the night Jesus was to be betrayed and handed over to be crucified, He wanted to reassure the disciples. In John 16:33 He told them, “I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.” Jesus didn’t come to take away our troubles or sorrows. Instead He has promised us peace in the midst of them. It’s a peace that goes beyond understanding or reason, but is there for us. In John 14:27, He said, “I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.” What an incredible gift to leave with us to help us through an uncertain future. This peace guards our hearts and minds.

2 Thessalonians 3:16 says, “Now may the Lord of peace himself give you his peace at all times and in every situation. The Lord be with you all.” Whatever you’re going through this season, God’s gift of peace is for you. You may not understand the moment you’re standing in, and you may wonder where God is, but take a moment today to say, “God, I need your gift of peace in my life and the grace to endure.” He will give you the same peace that allowed His son to sleep in a boat in the middle of the storm. Just like that day, He will either speak to the storm around you and say, “Peace. Be still,” or He will speak those words to the storm in your heart and mind. I’ll leave you with Philippians 4:6-7 that says, “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.”

God’s Gift Of Peace

As believers, God gives us some pretty incredible gifts. We have the gift of salvation, the gift of the Holy Spirit, the individual gifts of the Spirit and peace. God knows that our outer world is a reflection of our inner world so He gave us the gift of peace. When there is chaos all around us and things are going wrong, we can have peace instead of falling apart. Our inner world doesn’t have to be a reflection of things going on around us. Instead, our trust in God gives us peace no matter what we are facing. It is a driving force in our lives that allows us to be strong when the weight of the world is on our shoulders.

The peace that God gives allows us to have a sense of completeness, a sound mind and contentment. No matter how broken we are, God’s peace makes us whole. When everything around us wants to create fear, God’s peace reminds us that He is in control. When everyone else seems to be prospering and we are not, God’s peace helps us to be content. This gift of peace is strong in the face of adversity and keeps our eyes on God. We need to rely on it more than we do so that we can allow it to replace the worry and fear inside of us. Remember that God has not forgotten you – He’s equipped you for whatever you will face in life with the gifts He’s given you. Hold onto them and use them so your faith can be strong.

Here are some Bible verses on God’s gift of peace.

1. I leave the gift of peace with you—my peace. Not the kind of fragile peace given by the world, but my perfect peace. Don’t yield to fear or be troubled in your hearts—instead, be courageous!

John 14:27 TPT

2. I am listening to what the Lord God is saying; he promises peace to us, his own people, if we do not go back to our foolish ways.

Psalm 85:8 GNT

3. And the peace of God [that peace which reassures the heart, that peace] which transcends all understanding, [that peace which] stands guard over your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus [is yours].

PHILIPPIANS 4:7 AMP

4. Now may the Lord of peace himself give you his peace at all times and in every situation. The Lord be with you all.

2 Thessalonians 3:16 NLT

5. GOD makes his people strong. GOD gives his people peace.

Psalm 29:11 MSG
