It is a miracle, that when we first believe, peace comes into
our heart. How does God do that? A
question we’ll never know the answer to. His miraculous ways are beyond our
understanding.
It is true, though, that we are filled with God’s peace when we are saved, and as we grow, we learn more about His peace and where to find it.
Paul wrote in Romans 5:1: “Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
God’s faith and peace is a precious gift He gives to each one of us when we believe. In all situations we encounter in this life, His peace will help us each day as we walk with and grow with Him.
We know whom we believe because of Peter’s account in Acts as an eyewitness to the life of Jesus: “God has raised this Jesus to life, and we are all [the other disciples and countless others] witnesses to it. Exalted to the right hand of God, He has received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit and has poured out what you now see and hear.” Acts 2:32-33
There is no question regarding it. God's Word has been proven true countless times through the ages by Christians and non-Christians alike. Let’s thank God for the peace He graciously bestows on us and the joy we have because of it.
