Jehovah Shalom – Peace Be Upon You
← Back to AlbumAbout This Song
“Jehovah Shalom – Peace Be Upon You” is a blessing of peace over everyone who hears it. In a world filled with chaos, fear, and uncertainty, we all long for peace—not just the absence of conflict, but the deep, abiding peace that only God can provide.
Judges 6:24 introduces us to the name Jehovah Shalom, “The Lord is Peace.” When Gideon faced overwhelming fear, God met him with peace, assuring him that He was with him in the battle. This song reflects that same promise—that no matter what we’re facing, God’s peace is available to us.
In John 14:27, Jesus said, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” The peace Jesus offers is not temporary or dependent on circumstances. It’s a deep, soul-level peace that remains even when life feels out of control.
Philippians 4:6-7 reminds us that when we bring our anxieties to God, His peace, which transcends all understanding, will guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. “Jehovah Shalom – Peace Be Upon You” is both a prayer and a declaration, inviting listeners to lay down their worries and rest in God’s perfect peace.
This song is for anyone who feels overwhelmed, anxious, or weary. It’s a reminder that God’s peace is not just a promise—it’s a reality we can live in every day. Jehovah Shalom is with us, and His peace will carry us through.

🕊️ Peace That Stills the Storm
Have you ever stood at the edge of your chaos, heart racing, soul weary, wondering if God was still near? If so, “Jehovah Shalom – Peace Be Upon You” is for you. It is not a lullaby for shallow rest—it is a divine anthem that calls peace into being, even in the midst of life’s fiercest battles. Jehovah Shalom—*The Lord is Peace*—is not a distant name. It is a present reality. A Person. A Presence. A refuge that never fails.
The lyrics acknowledge a powerful truth: “It doesn’t mean the storm will cease, but in the winds, You speak of peace.” Peace is not the absence of difficulty; it is the presence of Yeshua in the midst of it. His voice does not always silence the waves—but it will always still the heart.
📖 Scripture Reflection: The Lord Is Peace
“Then Gideon built an altar there unto the Lord and called it Jehovah Shalom.” — Judges 6:24
When Gideon encountered the living God, fear tried to swallow him whole. Yet God responded not with judgment—but with peace. That moment of divine assurance birthed a new altar and a new name: *Jehovah Shalom*. The storm outside didn’t change—but Gideon did. He learned what we need to remember: peace is not found in changed circumstances, but in the nearness of God.
“Peace I leave with you; My peace I give you… Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” — John 14:27
The peace Yeshua gives isn’t fragile. It’s not borrowed from this world. It is His own—indestructible, eternal, and rooted in His unwavering presence. This peace is for the broken, the burdened, and the battle-weary. It’s for you.
💬 Let Peace Be the Loudest Voice
Peace is not passive—it is a Person who speaks. “You whisper hope inside of me,” the song says. That whisper is often gentler than the noise of life, but it is infinitely more powerful. When fear shouts, peace still speaks. When anxiety swells, peace remains steady.
Philippians 4:7 reminds us that this peace “surpasses understanding.” It doesn’t make sense. And it doesn’t need to. It anchors the soul when nothing else can. Colossians 3:15 urges us to “let the peace of God rule in your hearts.” That’s a choice we make. We surrender the throne of our hearts—not to fear, not to circumstances, but to Shalom Himself.
What voice are you allowing to rule your heart today?
Have you invited Jehovah Shalom to speak peace over your anxiety, your disappointment, your waiting?
🌿 Personal Stillness: Come to the Quiet
This song isn’t just a melody—it’s an invitation. To lay your worries at His feet. To find His stillness, calm, and sweet. The world may rage, but you are secure. You are loved. You are held. His arms are not a theory—they are your dwelling place.
“Jehovah Shalom, shine Your light. Let Your peace invade their pain.” That’s more than poetic prayer—it’s a prophetic declaration. Let that light flood your soul today. Let that peace be more than a wish. Let it be your lived reality.
– Where is peace absent in your life right now?
– What would it look like to lay that area down and declare, “Jehovah Shalom, You are my rest”?
🙏 Prayer
Jehovah Shalom, Prince of Peace, today I come into Your presence—not with perfection, but with an open heart. I bring You the parts of me still anxious, still weary, still wounded. I bring the places where storms still rage, and I ask: speak peace.
Let Your whisper cut through the noise. Let Your calm invade the chaos. I receive the gift of Your presence—not as the world gives, but as only You can. Help me to trust that peace is not a far-off promise, but a Person who lives within me. Be the rest I cannot manufacture. Be the calm I cannot earn.
For every soul still trembling in the night, I join this song of blessing: Peace be upon you. Peace beyond the storm. Peace deeper than pain. May His love meet you in the waves. May His voice lead you home. Amen.

Song Lyrics
Jehovah Shalom – Peace Be Upon You
Theme: A blessing of peace and restoration over others who are still in the battle.
Scripture Inspiration: Judges 6:24 – “The Lord is Peace.”
Name of God: Jehovah Shalom (The Lord is Peace)
Verse 1:
For the hearts weighed down by fear,
For the souls that feel God isn’t near.
In the chaos, in the fight,
There’s a peace beyond the night.
It doesn’t mean the storm will cease,
But in the winds, You speak of peace.
Jehovah Shalom, You calm the sea,
You whisper hope inside of me.
Chorus:
Jehovah Shalom, You are my rest,
In every trial, I am blessed.
Your peace is not the world’s to give,
But in Your arms, I truly live.
No fear, no chains, no bitter song,
Jehovah Shalom, You make me strong.
Verse 2:
I laid my worries at Your feet,
Found Your stillness, calm, and sweet.
The world may rage, but I’m secure,
Your peace in me will long endure.
So here I stand, no longer torn,
At peace with You, reborn, restored.
You speak and all the chaos fades,
Your love has met me in the waves.
Chorus:
Jehovah Shalom, You are my rest,
In every trial, I am blessed.
Your peace is not the world’s to give,
But in Your arms, I truly live.
No fear, no chains, no bitter song,
Jehovah Shalom, You make me strong.
Bridge:
For hearts that tremble in the night,
Jehovah Shalom, shine Your light.
Let Your peace invade their pain,
Wash away the fear and shame.
Call them home, give them rest,
Let them know they’re fully blessed.
Chorus:
Jehovah Shalom, You are our rest,
In every trial, we are blessed.
Your peace is not the world’s to give,
But in Your arms, we truly live.
No fear, no chains, no bitter song,
Jehovah Shalom, You make us strong.
Outro:
May His peace be your guiding light,
Through every day and every night.
Through every day and every night.
Jehovah Shalom will calm your seas,
In His love, you’ll find your peace.
Pray for the peace of Jehovah Shalom to guard anxious hearts and bring calm to chaos. May His peace settle over your soul like still waters, and His love quiet every fear.Spiritual Engagement

Surmon Notes
🔥 Sermon: Peace That Prevails
We’ve now arrived at the final song in the Shadows of Yesterday album—a journey that has carried us through brokenness, confession, healing, identity, and finally, peace. “Jehovah Shalom – Peace Be Upon You” is not just a closing track. It is a prophetic benediction. A covering for the weary. A whisper to the storm-tossed soul. This message is for those who’ve struggled in the shadows and now stand at the edge of restoration. Peace is not the end of the battle—it is what empowers you to walk through it with calm assurance. Jehovah Shalom is here.
🕊️ The Name That Still Speaks Peace
“Then Gideon built an altar there unto the Lord and called it Jehovah Shalom.” — Judges 6:24
Gideon was not a man of peace. He was hiding in fear, overwhelmed by the Midianite oppression. Yet God met him in his lowest place and spoke the words that still echo today: *“Peace be unto you; fear not.”* That moment gave birth to the name *Jehovah Shalom*—The Lord is Peace. Not *was*. Not *might be*. *Is*.
Some of us, like Gideon, feel unqualified for peace. We think peace belongs to the strong, the healed, the resolved. But peace isn’t a reward for perfection—it’s a gift for the surrendered. In fact, Jehovah Shalom often meets us in our least peaceful moments. He comes while the storm still rages, while the fear still lingers, while the questions still burn.
If you are in the cave, overwhelmed, God is not waiting outside. He is stepping into it with you. He brings peace not as a concept, but as a name. A presence. A Person.
🌿 Peace Is the Presence of the Shepherd
“Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth… let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” — John 14:27
Yeshua’s peace is different. It is not circumstantial. It is not fragile. It doesn’t rise and fall based on the news cycle or a clean diagnosis. His peace is a Person. It is the fruit of abiding in His love and yielding to His rule. That’s why Colossians 3:15 tells us to *let* the peace of Christ rule in our hearts. It doesn’t force its way in. It comes by invitation. Will you let peace rule today?
This song reminds us, *“Jehovah Shalom, You are my rest… in every trial, I am blessed.”* This is a statement of spiritual maturity. It is not denial. It’s dependence. Rest is not the absence of activity; it is the presence of alignment. When you are aligned with the Shepherd, Psalm 23 becomes more than poetry—it becomes posture: *“He makes me lie down… He restores my soul.”*
True peace is a relational reality. It is cultivated in the quiet. In the stillness. In the yielded life. Not in busyness, not in striving, but in trusting. You don’t have to perform for peace. You only need to sit at His feet.
🛡️ A Peace That Guards and Guides
“And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, shall guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.” — Philippians 4:7
One of the most beautiful truths about peace is that it’s not passive—it’s protective. Paul describes it as a guard, standing watch over your inner world. When we pray, surrender, and give thanks—even in the chaos—the peace of God steps into position like a sentinel over our thoughts and emotions.
The lyrics of this song say, *“Let Your peace invade their pain. Wash away the fear and shame.”* Peace is not only a balm—it’s a force. It has the power to displace what doesn’t belong. Fear cannot occupy the same space as peace. Shame cannot thrive in the presence of Shalom. Peace doesn’t ask permission to transform—it enters, and everything changes.
Isaiah 9:6 calls Yeshua the “Prince of Peace.” And verse 7 declares, *“Of the increase of His government and peace there shall be no end.”* This isn’t just prophetic poetry—it’s prophetic governance. As His Kingdom expands in our hearts, peace becomes more than comfort—it becomes strategy. In spiritual warfare, peace is not retreat. It is advancement. It’s what enables us to intercede with clarity, grieve with hope, and lead with gentleness.
🌅 Reflection: Is Peace Leading You?
– What area of your life is longing for the peace that only Jehovah Shalom can provide?
– Are you surrendering to His peace or striving to control your storm?
– What would it look like to build an altar—like Gideon—and name your chaos “Peace” because of His presence there?
We close the Shadows of Yesterday journey not with loud celebration, but with holy stillness. With peace. After the wrestling, the repentance, the rebuilding—this is what remains: *Jehovah Shalom will calm your seas. In His love, you’ll find your peace.*
Let this final track be more than a song. Let it be an altar. A declaration. A space where the weary come home. And a reminder that wherever you walk—He is with you. The Lord is Peace.
🙏 Prayer
Jehovah Shalom, I thank You that You are not only the One who calms the sea—but the One who walks with me on the water. When the wind howls and the waves rise, Your voice speaks stillness. Your presence releases rest.
I receive Your peace today—not as the world gives, but as You give. I release control. I yield my fear. I silence the voice of worry. Let Your peace rule in my heart. Guard my mind. Anchor my soul.
For those around me still in the battle, I speak the blessing of this song: Peace be upon you. Not the fragile peace of avoidance—but the fierce peace of His presence. May you feel His arms around you. May His light lead you through. May Jehovah Shalom calm your seas and restore your soul. Amen.

Jehovah Shalom – Peace Be Upon You
From the album: Shadows of Yesterday
Theme: Peace, Hope, Mercy, Trust In God, Grief Support, Spiritual Restoration, Worship Ministry
Scripture Focus: Judges 6:24, John 14:27, Philippians 4:6–7, Isaiah 9:6–7
🎵 Cue gentle intro music 🎵
Welcome back, dear friends, to another worship-filled episode. I’m so glad you’re here. Today, we’re slowing down. We’re breathing deep. And we’re leaning into one of the most profound names of God—Jehovah Shalom—The Lord is Peace. This episode is centered around the final song on the *Shadows of Yesterday* album, “Jehovah Shalom – Peace Be Upon You.” It’s more than a song. It’s a spiritual covering. A healing balm. A whispered invitation from the heart of God: *Come rest in Me.*
👑 His Kingship Is Eternal
🎶 Instrumental swell 🎶
Peace isn’t something the world can truly give. It can offer comfort, but not security. It can offer distraction, but not restoration. In Isaiah 9:6, Yeshua is called the “Prince of Peace,” and verse 7 says His government and peace will never end. That’s not just prophecy—it’s governance. Peace is the atmosphere of His rule.
When we declare Jehovah Shalom, we’re not just saying “God is peaceful.” We’re declaring that His very presence *establishes* peace—over minds, homes, relationships, even nations. His kingship doesn’t bring pressure; it brings rest. And when we surrender to His reign, we begin to see that His peace is not just a soft ending—it’s a powerful beginning.
So today, let’s honor His Kingship—not only as Lord of righteousness, but as the Prince whose rule brings deep, enduring calm. In the chaos of life, He is still seated. And His throne is made of peace.
🙌 Surrender Is the Sound of Worship
🎶 Cue brief instrumental interlude 🎶
The song beautifully confesses, “Jehovah Shalom, You are my rest… Your peace is not the world’s to give.” What a powerful truth. Worship isn’t only what we sing—it’s the atmosphere we choose to live in. And peace is part of that worship. Peace declares, “I don’t have to carry this alone.”
John 14:27 reminds us: *“Peace I leave with you; My peace I give you… Do not let your hearts be troubled.”* Peace begins when we choose trust over control, presence over performance, faith over fear. It’s not passive—it’s deeply active. Every time we surrender worry in worship, we build an altar to Jehovah Shalom, just like Gideon did in Judges 6.
Let that sink in—your surrender *is* your sanctuary. Your stillness *is* your song. And when you release your burdens into His hands, you make space for His Spirit to move.
🛡️ Intercession: When Worship Becomes Warfare
🎵 Pause. Let Holy Spirit bring names to mind 🎵
Now, let’s talk about peace as a weapon. Philippians 4:6–7 tells us not to be anxious, but to pray—and that God’s peace will guard our hearts and minds. The word “guard” in Greek is a military term. Peace doesn’t just soothe—it protects.
When we intercede for others, especially those weary in battle, we don’t just pray for their struggle to end—we pray for peace to stand sentry over their hearts. This song is a prayer of blessing: *“Let Your peace invade their pain… call them home, give them rest.”* As intercessors, that’s our posture. We speak peace where there’s chaos. We declare rest where there’s torment. We call wandering souls into the arms of Jehovah Shalom.
Take a moment now. Who needs this peace today? Speak their name in prayer. Whisper it to the Lord. He hears you. And His peace is already moving.
🌍 Final Reflections: A Life That Crowns Him Daily
This whole album—*Shadows of Yesterday*—has been a journey through repentance, restoration, and renewal. It ends not with a roar, but with a breath. A benediction. *Jehovah Shalom – Peace Be Upon You* is the reminder that even after the fire, the battle, the rebuilding—what remains is peace.
Colossians 3:15 says, *“Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts…”* That’s our challenge today. Let it rule. Not your anxiety. Not your grief. Not your need to fix everything. Just peace.
– Where in your life are you still striving instead of resting?
– Can you let Jehovah Shalom be enough today?
🎶 Soft outro music begins 🎶
My friend, may His peace quiet your soul. May it lead you into deeper trust. May it be your compass and your covering. And may you carry that peace into a world desperate for the stillness of God.
🙏 Closing Prayer
Jehovah Shalom, I thank You for being near. You are not distant. You are here. In every storm, in every silence, You remain.
Today, I lay my burdens before You. I release the need to have it all together. I surrender the areas where fear still rules and ask You to reign in peace. Let Your presence be my place of rest. Let Your calm define my next step. Let Your voice be the loudest in my life.
For those I love—for the hurting, the anxious, the grieving—I speak Your name: Jehovah Shalom. Let Your peace be upon them. Wrap them in stillness. Lead them home.
I receive Your peace now, not just as comfort—but as covenant. Let it guard me, guide me, and glorify You. In the name of Yeshua, the Prince of Peace—Amen.
🎵 Cue final instrumental outro 🎵
