Perfect Peace from Jesus

“You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!” (Isa. 26:3 NLT)

What is perfect peace?

It is a condition of freedom from disturbance within the soul. It is perfect harmony reigning within. The Hebrew word for peace, “Shalom,” has the idea of soundness of health. Being filled with spiritual peace is to be spiritually healthy and free from all discord in the soul 

Perfect peace comes from Jesus

“For he himself is our peace”. (Eph. 2:14)

 “He came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near. For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit.” (Eph. 2:17-18)

“But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” (John 14:26-27)

Therefore

“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” (Phil. 4:6-7)
