Ps. Dan Foo emphasized that to truly experience Jehovah Shalom, we must first understand the meaning of peace. In Hebrew, Shalom, and in Greek, Eirene, peace means soundness, completeness, harmony, and wholeness of being. When we receive God’s Shalom/Eirene, it flows from our spirit to our soul and body, affecting every aspect of life. True peace is also a state of wellness, fullness and absence of strife. Though we may face bad news or challenges, we can recover quickly when we are anchored in God’s Word and prayer. In doing so, God holds, embraces, and fills us with His peace, strengthening us to walk through the valleys of our lives. God’s desire is for us to experience Him and His peace continually, no matter what our circumstances are.
