       You see, there is peace that comes naturally from God for us. We receive this peace when we are close to him and when we are walking in obedience to his Word in our lives. Following the what the Word of God says—following the Bible’s way of living—gives us peace. When we go our own way and do our own things, often times there isn’t a blessing from God on it. We are just working through our own flesh—our fleshly efforts instead of by God’s power and anointing—and before long we will realize this. We need the power of the Spirit of God to help us in our lives. He helps us with our weakness, that of dealing with our human flesh which is still corrupted by the sin nature, and he helps us by giving us needed strength. So, when we follow God’s way and do things through His power, we have a clear conscience which yields peace of mind. When we follow God in our lives which gives us peace, this leads to us obtaining the things we really want in and out of life. Job 22:21 tells us, ““Agree with God, and be at peace; thereby good will come to you” (ESV).
