Psalm 119:165 - A Formula For Peace.

Psalm 119:165 (NIV) Great peace have they 
who love your law, and nothing can make them 
stumble. 

Psalm 119:165 (CEV) You give peace of mind 
to all who love your Law. Nothing can make them 
fall. 

INTRODUCTION

Modern society longs for peace of mind. Here 
is clear-cut instruction on how to attain this: 
if we love God and obey his laws, we will have 
"great peace." [Life Application SB] 

The only power that can create or perpetuate 
true peace is the grace of Christ. When this is 
implanted in the heart, it will cast out the evil 
passions that cause strife and dissension. DA302 

COMMENTARY PEARL

   God has a plan for peace, and it is found 
in His Son, whom the Bible calls the "Prince of 
Peace" (Isa. 9:6). But we have rejected God's plan. 
Wars still ravage our world - and our lives. Why? 
Jesus said the problem is within us: "Out of the 
heart ... proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, 
fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, 
deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, 
foolishness" (Mark 7:21-22). What a list! Our real war is 
a rebellion against God - and it brings 
unending misery. 
   But God longs to see this rebellion 
cease. That is why Christ came. By His death He 
provided the way for us to be reconciled to God. And 
when we have peace with God, we have peace in our 
hearts - and peace with each other. This happens as 
we repent and receive Christ. The war is over, 
for God extends a peace treaty to all who come 
to Christ. 
   And God promises perfect peace to those 
whose minds are fixed on him.  Who doesn't desire 
perfect peace?  If we are focused on God and His 
word, no financial woe, health crisis, or family 
drama will cause us to stubble.  [Hope for Each 
Day by Billy Graham]
