Colossians 3:15 (AMP) says, “And let the peace (soul harmony which comes) from Christ rule (act as umpire continually) in your hearts [deciding and settling with finality all questions that arise in your minds, in that peaceful state] to which as [members of Christ’s] one body you were also called [to live]. And be thankful (appreciative), [giving praise to God always].”
We have faith on the inside of us, that is always believing that God is leading us and guiding us. But do you believe that?
In Hebrew, peace means “shalom” - which expresses the idea of wholeness, completeness, or tranquility in the soul, that is unaffected by outward circumstances or pressures.
The word shalom indicates, that this dominating peace ultimately gives rise to prosperity in one’s soul. Prosperity is linked to peace in our soul.
When we make a decision and it just feels wrong, that feeling is God letting us know. Colossians 3:15 says that we should be ruled by peace. If we do not have peace about something, then that is not the right decision.
