Welcome to Daily Growth Point, I’m Pastor John Bingham.
In the Old Testament, the most prominent Hebrew word for peace is “Shalom.” It is used as a common greeting for many Hebrews. Yet, this word is wide in its application. But no matter the situation, the presence of “shalom” was not considered an outcome of human endeavor, but as a gift or blessing of God. God said in Isaiah, “I make peace.”
This idea of peace coming from God is expanded in the New Testament. Galatians 5 lays the same groundwork that genuine peace is applied to the heart of the believer when he is walking in agreement with God.
The peace that Jesus brings is not an end to tension; rather, it first reconciles us to God, then gives us a calmness in spirit despite the circumstances in which we are living. Today, He invites you to know His peace through Christ.
