Accessing Peace (+DreamKids Program)
The Christmas season reminds us of the most extraordinary announcement in history: "For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace” (Isaiah 9:6).
Picture this: shepherds in a field, startled by an angelic proclamation, "Today in the town of David, a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord" (Luke 2:11). What a declaration! A King, born not in grandeur but humility—a King not to dominate but to redeem. This is King Jesus, the Prince of Peace. And what does this mean for us today? It means access to a peace unlike anything the world can offer.
Born to us a King... Jesus is the Prince of Peace! He is the source of peace, he is the ruler over true peace, and only through Him can we find true peace!
Isa 9:6,7 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
