"Great peace have they which love Thy law: and nothing shall offend them."
word for law - law; The labor of praise 7 times a day was in the last verse. The product of that praise is found in this verse. Great peace have they which love Thy law - not just peace, but great peace shall be to the soul that love God's word; Could it be then that there is so much unrest and fear among people today because of this very thing? Most assuredly the departure of the people of God from the Word of God has led to the loss of the peace of God. We have a very clear description of where peace is found in the Scriptures; peace alone comes from God. It is not found in mediation, chanting, counselors, or any other man made pracitices. 'There is no peace with the wicked, saith the LOrd.' Peace then can only come from God. He imparts peace to those that rests in HIm.
A love of the Word gives assurance, gives promises, gives instructions for a troubled soul to find great peace. Not just a peace for the moment, but a perpetual peace that is enduring, everlasting, continual for the soul in this world. JEsus said, 'Let not your heart be trouble. . .' A love of God compels them to see His promises and hopes in His Word that anchors us not in our own ways, but in His. He is able to do great and mighty things because He is God. The individual is able to see these things becuase they empty themselves and allow god to fill them. And when we see so much pain, sorrow, and chaos in peoples lives, it is because they have left the Word of God for man made ways that will never bring peace or joy.
