—Isaiah 57:14-21
by: Katie Brown.
God promised peace to Israel. But true peace would not come until He sent Jesus. Jesus came to earth as a man to bring peace and healing to the world. God sent Jesus to rescue us from our bondage to sin and death. There is no comfort like the comfort that Jesus brings by forgiving our sins and drawing us to God’s throne. In this passage, God warned that there is no peace in this world for the wicked. We were wicked before God, in His mercy, took away our sins and made us new creatures. It is only through surrendering our lives to Christ that we can experience His peace.
