King James Version
19 In the multitude of my thoughts within me
thy comforts delight my soul.
The world may go this way, and that.
But believers in JESUS don't go this way, and that.
We are sure, steady, and saved.
We lean against the ROCK.
Our foundations are sure.
Our confidence comes from the LORD.
Our peace comes from the LORD.
Our faith comes from the LORD.
We know Who to put our faith in.
We know Who to put our hope in.
We know Who and what to believe.
These verses are proof of that SOURCE of PEACE:

for the service of the house of the Lord.

that I covenanted with you
when ye came out of Egypt,
so my spirit remaineth among you:

Matthew 6:25-34
King James Version
25 Therefore I say unto you,
Take no thought for your life,
what ye shall eat,
or what ye shall drink;
nor yet for your body,
what ye shall put on.
Is not the life more than meat,
and the body than raiment?
26 Behold the fowls of the air:
for they sow not,
neither do they reap,
nor gather into barns;
yet your heavenly Father feedeth them.
Are ye not much better than they?
27 Which of you by taking thought
can add one cubit unto his stature?
28 And why take ye thought for raiment?
Consider the lilies of the field,
how they grow;
they toil not,
neither do they spin:
29 And yet I say unto you,
That even Solomon in all his glory
was not arrayed like one of these.
30 Wherefore,
if God so clothe the grass of the field,
which to day is,
and to morrow is cast into the oven,
shall he not much more clothe you,
O ye of little faith?
31 Therefore take no thought,
saying,
What shall we eat? or,
What shall we drink?
or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:)
for your heavenly Father knoweth
that ye have need of all these things.
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God,
and his righteousness;
and all these things shall be added unto you.
34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow:
for the morrow shall take thought
for the things of itself.
Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
Matthew 11:28-30
King James Version
28 Come unto me,
all ye that labour and are heavy laden,
and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you,
and learn of me;
for I am meek and lowly in heart:
and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy,
and my burden is light.

King James Version
36 As soon as Jesus heard

Be not afraid,
only believe.

my peace I give unto you:

Let not your heart be troubled,
neither let it be afraid.

King James Version

that in me ye might have peace.

I have overcome the world.

shall be able to separate us from the love of God,
which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
