The God of Peace
The God of peace will be with you.
Philippians 4:9
The apostle Paul often referred to the Lord as the God of peace. In Romans he said, “Now the God of peace be with you all” (Rom 15:33). In 2 Corinthians he wrote, “The God of love and peace will be with you”(Rom 13:11). And to the Thessalonian believers he said, may the Lord of peace Himself give you peace always in every way” (2 Thes 3:16).
Today’s verse emphasizes the fact that God’s character is peace. He is the origin and giver of peace. When we have godly attitudes, thoughts, and actions, the peace of God and the God of peace will guard us. His peace provides comfort, tranquility, quietness, and confidence in the midst of any trial you may face.
