There are three basic types of peace mentioned in the Bible
— The peace of God that comes with salvation, Rom. 5:1.
— The peace of God that come through total surrender to God in all things, Phil. 4:6-7; John 14:1, 27.
— The peace on earth that will come when Jesus Christ comes back to reign in glory and power, Isa. 2:1-4.
The peace of God that comes with total surrender to God in all things is the peace of God in times of trouble.
It’s the peace of God that overwhelms our worries and that helps us to rest in the will of God even when we can’t see what lies ahead.
Philippians 4:6-7 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
