The inspired Holy Bible promises perfect peace to those who trust in the Lord. Proverbs 3:5-7, “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.”
We are living in a wicked generation in America today. This is the confused gender-bending generation. This is the generation that doesn't look up anymore. That is, there is no fear of God today. Psalms 36:1, “The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.” The fact that young people are committing smash and grab stealing crimes all across the country clearly evidence that they have no fear of God. The fact that the crime rate is skyrocketing nationwide plainly evidences that Americans no longer fear God.
What saith the Scripture? Proverbs 16:6, “By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil.” I love this Bible verse, which is actually another promise from God. The biblical way to purge a family, church, community or nation of evil (deliberate ongoing sin) is by showing mercy (the Hebrew meaning is: kindness toward God) and truth (or trustworthiness). The Bible is saying if we love God and regard His commandments, and are faithful to fear God and keep His commandments (Ecclesiastes 12:13), then men will turn from committing evil.
We live in a very confused world today. The dating world is insane. We hear all kinds of heathen advice being offered freely on social media. Psalms 1:1 exhorts the Christian not to walk in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stand in the way of sinners, nor sit in the seat of the scornful. Bad advice leads to bad decisions, which leads to a ruined life. As God's child you ought not take any advice from unsaved people, unless it is on how to grow a garden, repair a door, or fix your flat tire. Please do not take any advice on life from heathens, because they do not care about what God's thinks.
Isaiah 26:3, “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.” If you want perfect peace, then trust in the Lord by living in the inspired King James Bible. Let God's commandments, and the godly principles taught in the Holy Scriptures, be your only guide in life's decisions, and then you can claim God's perfect peace.
Perhaps the best example I can give you is salvation. I am trusting in Jesus Christ alone for my eternal life, because of what He did through Calvary's cross to pay my debt of sin. I am not trying to turn from my sins to get to Heaven, nor do I try to turn from my sinful ways to know that I am saved, which would be works. Anyone who is trusting in Jesus PLUS turning from their sins is NOT saved. They are not saved because they are not wholly trusting in Jesus.
Thank you for reading my blog.
