One of the hebrew words for peace is the word shalom. And in some cases, what it means is to have accounts be squarely settled - restitution. In this verse, God says that the peace we're going to experience might just be a equality where our things balance out and there's no war. But i don't want any enemies as a nation who would come over america and kill people because they love us so much. I'd rather err on the second half an other words, let's go try.
We live in a world defined by conflict. Whether it’s war among nations, arguments over politics, or even strife within the body of Christ, tensions run high and patience runs low. Between the external battles people fight with one another and the internal turmoil that steals our serenity, peace feels like a rare and precious commodity. Yet, as we learn from Proverbs 16, God has given us a recipe for genuine peace. Living our lives in a way that pleases Him is the only guaranteed path to peace in our lives and in our world.
