Lord, You will establish peace for us,
For You have also done all our works in us. Isaiah 26:12
Isaiah 26, This is the vision of Isaiah that God gave concerning the people of Israel, a prophetical singing of how God will restore Israel. Israel was in a very bad place. God is giving them the promise to redeem, restore, and establish peace. NKJV’s title for this chapter is “A Song of Salvation.”
Like Israel, are you in a bad place? Are you waiting for peaceful days to start? The Word of God says, “You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You (Isaiah 26:3)” take off your mind from the problems; instead, Set your mind on Him and trust Him with your whole heart. God is promising you that He will establish His peace in you.
Jesus went to the cross and made peace between us and God The Father to give us salvation (see Romans 5:1). Won’t He give peace on this earth? He will. He has done all our works in us, earthly and spiritually; there is only one thing you and I need to do, set your mind on Jesus, and live for Jesus. He will establish peace.
“Let the peace of God rule in your hearts” (Colossians 3:15). Amen.
