Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, 

good will toward men.    -Luke 2:14 (KJV)


And he will be called…Prince of Peace.  -Isaiah 9:6 (NLT)

The Way Peace Really Works:

1. Peace flows FROM GOD 

5 But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed. 6 All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the Lord laid on him the sins of us all.    -Isaiah 53:5-6 (NLT)

For God presented Jesus as the sacrifice for sin. People are made right with God when they believe that Jesus sacrificed his life, shedding his blood….Therefore, since we have been made right in God’s sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us.    -Romans 3:25 & 5:1 (NLT)

2. Peace grows IN ME

You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!    -Isaiah 26:3 (NLT)

And he awoke and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.    -Mark 4:39 (ESV)

6 Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. 7 Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.    

-Philippians 4:6-7 (NLT)

3. Peace goes TO OTHERS

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

-Matthew 5:9 (KJV)

18 And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to himself through Christ. And God has given us this task of reconciling people to him. 19 For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.    -2 Corinthians 5:18-19 (NLT)

Know Jesus, Know Peace

No Jesus, No Peace
