Good morning people who meditate on and dwell in the goodness of God.
Great peace comes from loving God’s law, and nothing can make that person stumble (Psalm 119:165).
Perfect and constant peace comes to the one whose mind is fixed on God.
Isaiah 26:3 NIV You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.
Isaiah 26:3 AMP You will keep in perfect and constant peace the one whose mind is steadfast [that is, committed and focused on You—in both inclination and character], because he trusts and takes refuge in You [with hope and confident expectation].
Our mind is steadfast when it is committed and focused on God. This is talking about looking at His face and being anchored to His character. Knowing who God is results in a peace that goes beyond understanding.
The more you know God, the more you will trust God. If your trust in God is low, your peace from God will be low. There is an undisputable connection between knowing God, trusting God and finding our peace in God.
Let me tell you a little more about our God.
Psalm 27:1 NIV The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?
Psalm 91:2 NIV I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”
Psalm 63:3 NIV Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you.
Psalm 63:7-8 NIV Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings. I cling to you; your right hand upholds me.
Our God is delightful and wonderful beyond measure.
