You will keep him in perfect peace,Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You. (Isaiah 26:3)

Those whose minds are set on God will have a holy security and complete serenity. God will keep them in peace at all times; inward peace, outward peace, peace of conscience, and even peace in the midst of tribulations. Trust that God will keep you in constant peace if you set your eyes on Him. The key is to have your mind on God, and be assured that he will keep you and protect you. Live in faith and adhere to God’s words to be a righteous person “For a righteous man may fall seven times And rise again, But the wicked shall fall by calamity.” (Proverbs 24:16).

Those who are righteous will recover, they will get out of trouble by God’s care and blessings. They may fall over and over again, but they will rise again and find mercy with God and regain peace. If we trust what the world offers it will only be for a moment, but trusting in God is everlasting.
