I will extend peace to her like a river.<\/em> Frances Ridley Havergal was a popular singer, devotional writer, and British hymnist. One of her most well-known songs says: \u201cLike a river glorious is God\u2019s perfect peace, over all victorious in its bright increase.\u201d Her imagery and inspiration came from the book of Isaiah.<\/p>\n Writing about the Millennial reign of Christ, Isaiah said, \u201cBehold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream\u201d (Isaiah 66:12). Christ will establish global peace for the world just as He gives us His inner peace now. Havergal knew another verse from Isaiah too\u2014Isaiah 26:3: \u201cYou will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You.\u201d Her chorus says: \u201cStayed upon Jehovah, hearts are fully blest, finding, as he promised, perfect peace and rest.\u201d<\/p>\n War has been with us since the days of Cain and Abel, but it isn\u2019t eternal. One day God\u2019s peace will flow through the world like a river. But even now, it can flow through our hearts when our minds are stayed on Him. Claim His perfect peace in your situation today.<\/p>\n Hidden in the hollow of His blessed hand, never foe can follow, never traitor stand.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I will extend peace to her like a river.
