FAMILY THEME: THE GIFT OF PEACE

Isaiah 26:1-21

In this song of salvation, God promises comfort and peace 

to those who trust in Him in spite of the impending judgment

to come.

1.  Trusting God Leads to Peace and Overall Well-being

     (Isaiah 26:1-6)

     God promised to keep the person who keeps his mind

     on God in peace, peace. That's like peace on steroids -

     perfect peace!

 
2.  God Brings About Our Good for Those Who Trust Him

     and Walk in His Ways

     (Isaiah 26:7-15)

     God will provide peace and righteousness to those

     who trust Him, yet the wicked refuse to submit to His

     provisions of grace.

     

3.  We Can Have Hope Even in Difficult Times

     (Isaiah 26:16-21)

     Although God's hand would continue to protect and

     bless His people in the future, He would also continue

     to punish His enemies.
