Introduction: Will there ever be Peace on earth? The daily headline reads,”Wars and rumors of wars.” Nightly news reviews the horror of the human race. There is “No peace.”

Even the earth is groaning awaiting its redemption. But there is HOPE!

Jesus Christ is coming again!! As the Prince of Peace, His kingdom shall rule and reign!

Do you need His Peace today? We all do!

1. Jesus Christ’s first coming was introduced by the angels as Peace on Earth! (Luke 2:13,14) – “And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, 14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.”

While people are looking for peace in a pill or bottle, CHRISTians find peace in a lasting relationship with Jesus Christ. Jesus not only brings peace, He is our peace. 

2. Isaiah the prophet foresaw Jesus Christ as the Prince of Peace! (Isa 9:6) – “6For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.”

1. A Son is given – the Son of God.
2. The government will be upon His shoulders.
3. The Old Testament prophet, Isaiah describes in several passages when this Prince of Peace shall rule (Isa 11; 65).

3. Jesus Christ’s millennial reign will usher in His Peace! (Isa 2:4) – “….and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.”

When has this ever happened? Never. That means it must be futuristic, and it is. During the millennial reign of Christ there will be peace. 

Conclusion: Are you experiencing peace right now? Why don’t you call upon the Lord for His peace?

Not only does He have peace but He is our Peace!
