4 Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord, the Lord himself, is the Rock eternal. When evil tidings are abroad those shall calmly expect the event, and not be disturbed by frightful apprehensions arising from them, whose hearts are fixed, trusting in the Lord, Psalm 112:7. Those of steadfast mind you keep in peace, in peace because they trust in you.Thou wilt keep him in shalom shalom, whose yetzer (mind-set) is stayed on Thee. Scripture: Isaiah 26:3-4 3 You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast (fixed, focused and stayed on you), because they trust (with hope and confident expectation) in you. Those that trust in God must have their minds stayed upon him, must trust him at all times, under all events, must firmly and faithfully adhere to him, with an entire satisfaction in him and such as do so God will keep in perpetual peace, and that peace shall keep them. It is the character of every good man that he trusts in God, puts himself under his guidance and government, and depends upon him that it shall be greatly to his advantage to do so. This is here the matter of a promise, Thou wilt keep him in peace, peace, in perfect peace, inward peace, outward peace, peace with God, peace of conscience, peace at all times, under all events this peace shall he be put into, and kept in the possession of, whose mind is stayed upon God, because it trusts in him. That all who belong to it are safe and easy, and have a holy security and serenity of mind in the assurance of God’s favour. 3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.
