When we develop a lifestyle of MAKING THE LORD OUR REFUGE, we begin to “LIVE IN THE PEACE OF GOD” (Psalm 46:1 “GOD is our refuge and strength, a very present HELP IN TROUBLE.”; “Psalm 62:8 “TRUST in HIM at all times, O people; pour out your heart before HIM; GOD is a REFUGE for us. Selah”). Psalm 91:1 holds the secret to living in the PEACE OF GOD: "He that dwells in the secret place of THE MOST HIGH SHALL ABIDE UNDER THE SHADOW OF THE ALMIGHTY. I will say of the LORD, HE IS MY REFUGE and my fortress: my GOD; in HIM will I trust." THAT SECRET PLACE IN OUR HEARTS IS WHERE WE GO TO MEET WITH GOD. When WE CHOOSE to live there and hide away under HIS shadow, staying in constant communion with HIM, WE CAN REMAIN PEACEFUL, EVEN WHEN CIRCUMSTANCES MAY NOT BE. When we learn to cry out to HIM in times of trouble, we find that HIS PEACE really does pass ALL human understanding (Philippians 4:7 “And THE PEACE OF GOD, which SURPASSES ALL UNDERSTANDING, will GUARD YOUR HEARTS and your minds in CHRIST JESUS.”)
