The Peace We All Need [Isaiah 9:6-7]

The Peace We All Need [Isaiah 9:6-7]

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.

  1. The Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6)
  2. 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:

  1. This year, what idols have I relied on instead of trusting and following Jesus, the Prince of Peace?
  2. 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)?
