two scriptures about peace

I came across two Scriptures about peace I want to share.  The first, I found while studying second Thessalonians:  Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all. 2 Thess 3:16.  Think of that truth!  He is the Lord of peace.  He rules over anything and everything related to peace.  He created it, He dwells with it and He knows how to apportion it.  What is this Lord of peace going to do for believers?  He is going to provide peace.  To what extent is the provision? At all times in every way.  We can walk and live in that assurance.  The next Scripture is in an odd place, but it is nevertheless a powerful word.  In Romans 16 we get a window into the first century church as Paul gives greetings to person after person. He then says something grand and significant.  Before I type it, allow me to ask:  Are you struggling with the evil in this sinful world?  Do you find yourself doing what James encouraged: resisting the Devil?  Have you found yourself in the stations of ministry and life, getting weary? Then receive this promise:  The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. (Romans 16:20). That struggle won't last forever!  The God of PEACE knows how to be aggressive with the Devil!  It is going to happen "soon". Praise God! ​
