Isaiah 26:3

You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you.

  • Read Hebrews chapter 11

The Hebrew word for peace is shalom. Shalom means happy, complete, and soundness. Our text promises us that if our mind is stayed upon the Lord, he will keep us in perfect shalom.

(questions for the kids)

  1. What do you think it means to have our mind stayed on God?
  2. Do you think this state of being is normative for you?
  3. Would you like it to be?

My name is Scott David and I live in Minnesota. My wife and I have been married for 23 years and we have 4 children. I am reformed in my doctrine and confessional; as we hold to the 1689 London Baptist Confession. I am convinced by Scripture that I am to lead my family to the throne of grace through daily devotions and prayer. These posts are currently the devotions that we do each night. If you decide to participate in doing these devotions with your family; know that we are doing them right along side you. May the Lord add his blessing to his Word and your desire to serve him through day by day devotions.
