God’s Shalom

by Hazel Straub

Anxiety and worry rob us of our blessings that we have in Yeshua the Messiah. Pray filled with thanksgiving and God’s shalom will guard your heart and mind, as you rest in him. This shalom means so much more than peace and encompasses wholeness, completeness, soundness, tranquility, prosperity, perfectness, fullness, rest, harmony, and the absence of agitation or discord. He is our Prince of Shalom (Peace) and has fully paid for our wholeness with nothing broken or missing. Praise God! Rest!

Philippians 4:6-9 (CJB)
“Don’t worry about anything; on the contrary, make your requests known to God by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving. Then God’s shalom, passing all understanding, will keep your hearts and minds safe in union with the Messiah Yeshua. In conclusion, brothers, focus your thoughts on what is true, noble, righteous, pure, lovable or admirable, on some virtue or on something praiseworthy. Keep doing what you have learned and received from me, what you have heard and seen me doing; then the God who gives shalom will be with you.”

    This is a message that cannot be taught too many times. People need it today more than ever before, and there are really very few who truly understand that God’s peace encompasses so much. The church has received the lie that everything in life comes from God — including the evil — and then the church has fed that lie to the world. For some reason they seem to totally disregard the words of Jesus that it is THE THIEF who kills, steals, and destroys, but God gives life in abundance. Keep preaching these truths! They will set a lot of people free.
