Sermon Outline 7 December
The Peace We All Need
Isaiah 9:6-7
Introduction: The reality of living in a broken world
The Prophet Isaiah tells us that our rescue comes not from pretending or performing, but from a Person.
- The Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6)
- The Kingdom of Peace (Isaiah 9:7)
Conclusion:
Those who trust and follow Christ the Peacemaker, become peacemakers themselves and are blessed in Him (Matthew 5:9).
Questions for reflection:
- This year, what idols have I relied on instead of trusting and following Jesus, the Prince of Peace?
- As I grow closer to Jesus, in what specific ways can I speak the gospel of peace (cf. Ephesians 6:15), and pursue peace in my relationships (cf. Hebrews 12:14)?
