Yahweh Shalom
The Lord is Peace

In Judges 6:24, Gideon built an altar and called it The Lord is Peace.

The shalom, or peace of God, is wholeness and well-being. It signifies health, prosperity, safety, wellness, restoration and joy.

God desires to bless His people with peace.

A great exchange has taken place. Jesus was chastised in our place so that we might experience His peace and wholeness in our lives.

He took our sin and gave us His righteousness. He took our sicknesses and pains and gave us His healing and health.
