“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” - John 16:33He promises peace in Himself! Not a peace to come, or a peace from our 'good behavior'. No, we can "take heart" in the fact that our peace is already secure - He has overcome! It's done.
This Hillsong tune fleshes this out in a great way, meeting each of our problems with a trait of God:
[Chorus at 3:50]
All our troubles, and all our tears,God our Hope, He has overcome!
All our failure, and all our fear,God our Love, He has overcome!
All our heartache, and all our pain,God our Healer, He has overcome!
All our burdens, and all our shame,God our Freedom, He has overcome!
God our Justice,God our Grace,God our Freedom,He has overcome!
God our Refuge,God our Strength,God is with us,He has overcome!
