“You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you.” Isaiah 26:3 - (ESV)
Is there a benefit to reading these daily promises of God? Is knowing these promises and thinking about them worth while? Yes, there is and it is. Who of us does not desire a life filled with peace and free from anxiety, doubt, and fear? Our verse today gives us a promise of that perfect peace. But, there is a requisite condition. As believers we have unconditional peace with God as far as the consequences of sin. God has provided that for us in the human, earthly life, death and resurrection of His Son Jesus Christ. But peace of mind and heart that settles us and drives away the doubt and fears that pester us from so many circumstances, is available to those who decide to trust in God's promises. This perfect peace comes to those who have fixed their minds on the promises of God and trust those promises to be true, because God has said they are true.
