I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Friday morning, the 23rd of January, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. John 14:27 - this is Jesus speaking: ”Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” Oh my dear friend, how this world of ours is desperate to find peace. All we hear about is peace, peace, everywhere but there's no peace, is there? They have conferences on peace. Nations get together at the United Nations, but no one can find peace. There are some homes that you'll go into, there's anything there but peace. There are arguments, there's jealousy, there's even hatred but no peace. Why? Because peace cannot be found, peace cannot be bought, peace cannot be earned at university. You can't get a degree in peace. If you could, the university would be full of students studying the subject of peace! So how do you get peace? Peace comes from a person whose name is the Prince of Peace. Oh yes, I'm talking about my beloved Jesus Christ. I hope He is yours too. That's where you'll find peace!You know, I have shared with you previously about Brother Lawrence, the French monk who lived in a monastery 300 years ago. He had the lowliest job of all. He was the one who had to wash the pots and the pans and cook the food. He also sewed sandals for his brothers, although he himself walked barefoot, but continually there were monks around him when he was trying to cook and wash the dishes and the pots and pans, and mend their sandals. Why were they always around him? Because he pervaded, he gave off like a fragrance of peace because he had found the Prince of Peace!You know, I want to tell you something very personal, there is somebody in my home, I'm not going to say anymore - and she always gives off that beautiful fragrance of peace. I can have a hard day, a tough day, as they say, at the office. When I come home to my little house, she is there waiting for me and she just gives the fragrance of peace. You know why? Because she spends lots of time with Him. You see, when you spend lots of time with a person, you become like that person.Now today, ask Jesus to give you a revelation of Himself, that you too go around this troubled world, and people will be drawn to Jesus Christ.God bless you and have a wonderful day.Goodbye.

Prince of Peace | Robbie Hilton | Calvary Church
Start with humility, move with courage, and aim for liberty that actually lasts. That's the arc we trace as we connect the dots between personal faith, public authority, and the conditions that make freedom possible. We open in prayer for leaders, families, teachers, and first responders, then press into the central claim: a society that banishes God from public life cannot keep the fruits of peace, safety, and liberty.From there, we lay out concrete steps. First, renewal starts at home and work: live openly under Christ's authority. Second, confront the civic framework that pushed faith to the margins by reassessing the legacy of Everson v. Board of Education and the way “separation” has functioned in practice. We revisit early American norms that expected public servants to be people of Christian conviction, arguing that character and creed shape public trust. Whether you agree fully or not, the challenge is clear: if freedom has a source, our laws and lives should reflect it.Scripture anchors the conversation. Proverbs 5 casts a hopeful vision for marriage as mutual joy and fidelity. Matthew 8 reminds us of the centurion who recognized true authority and trusted Christ's word without spectacle. Psalm 9 warns that nations that ignore God slide toward ruin, while Proverbs 3 offers a path back through trust, loyalty, and wisdom. We honor courage through the Medal of Honor story of Emmer Bowen at Vicksburg, and we revisit President Truman's 1945 Day of Prayer, where he credited God for victory and called the country to gratitude and a just peace.The throughline is simple and strong: order life under true authority, and freedom follows. Disregard the source, and even the best systems fray. If you find this conversation meaningful, share it with a friend, subscribe for more, and leave a review to help others find the show.

Christmas isn't just a story—it's heaven breaking into earth. Through Mary's yes and her Magnificat, we see how God prepares hearts for His purposes across generations. The message reveals five signs God is at work within us and reminds us that even before birth, John the Baptist recognized the Messiah. Our lives are part of something bigger than ourselves, and true transformation comes not by effort, but by making room for Jesus and allowing the Holy Spirit to work in us—at Christmas and every day.
It's a Fireside Chat with the Rev. Dr. Ryan Tietz (Associate Professor of Exegetical Theology and Dean of Students at Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, IN) who joins us to talk about Isaiah's Prophecy of the Prince of Peace during the Christmas Season.

11am Service Isaiah 9:6–7; John 14:27
God brings true and everlasting peace to His people through the promised Messiah, Jesus Christ, who defeats sin and reigns forever as the Prince of Peace.
In this series, we've been talking about four names given to Jesus before He was born. In this message, Lead Pastor Jamie Nunnally shares the significance of the name: Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6 tells us that Messiah's name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.Today we focus on Prince of Peace. In Hebrew, Sar Shalom.Sar means Captain, Chief, General, Ruler. Jesus doesn't give sentimental peace—He establishes peace by enforcing the rule of the King.So what is peace? In Hebrew, Shalom.Shalom is an all-encompassing word that describes when everything is as it should be.Calling the Messiah the Prince of Peace isn't a promise of fewer battles; it's God promising His presence through them. When your world is falling apart, God sent the One who holds all things together. He doesn't just have peace—He is peace.Peace does not come from inactivity.1 Peter 3:11 says to seek peace and pursue it. Peace won't come by doing nothing. If the world has to stop for you to have peace, you'll never have peace. Peace isn't the absence of problems; it's remaining resolute despite them.Peace does not come from control.Some people think peace comes when they get their own way. That's not peace—that's immaturity. Proverbs 3:5 reminds us to trust in the Lord and not lean on our own understanding. You cannot control your way into peace.Three Things Jesus Does as the Prince of PeaceJesus demonstrates how to live a life of peace. In Mark 4, Jesus sleeps during a storm while the disciples panic. A storm outside doesn't have to mean a storm inside. Fear responds to facts; faith responds to truth. Sometimes peace isn't God calming the storm as much as God calming His child.Jesus secured the peace treaty between God and mankind. Colossians 1 tells us that through the cross, Jesus made peace between God and humanity. You can't experience the peace of God until you've made peace with God. Peace with God isn't earned—it's received.Jesus offers us His peace. John 14:27 says Jesus gives us His peace, not the world's version. You can't have the peace of God while fighting the rule of God. Peace is a person you must yield to. Where Jesus is Lord, peace will rule; where He is not, chaos will rule.ClosingIsaiah 26:3 says God keeps in perfect peace those whose minds are fixed on Him. Peace doesn't come from changing everything around you—it comes from fixing your focus. When your thoughts are fixed on fear, peace gets blurry. When they're fixed on the Prince of Peace, clarity comes.A new year is right around the corner. What if we don't need a new year—we just need a new ruler? Where the Prince rules, His peace reigns.Are you letting Jesus be your Prince of Peace?
Isaiah 9 : 6 & 7, Prince of Peace, Rick Breucsh by Arbor Dale Church
In a world that often feels heavy and uncertain, we’ll gather to see and celebrate the comfort of His presence—the Light who enters our darkness, the Peace that steadies our hearts, and the hope that never fades. Discussion Questions: In Isaiah 9:1–2, Isaiah describes a movement from deep darkness to light. Based on the text, what is the source of this shift? What does Isaiah want us to see as the turning point from doom to hope? Isaiah calls the Messiah the “Prince of Peace” in verse 6. Looking at verses 6–7, where does this peace come from, and what kind of peace is Isaiah describing? What clues do we get that this peace is rooted in God’s rule, not our circumstances? In 2 Corinthians 5, Paul says we are reconciled to God through Christ and calls people to “be reconciled to God.” How does peace with God serve as the foundation for every other kind of peace Isaiah points toward? Jesus says in John 14:27, “My peace I give to you… not as the world gives.” How does Jesus’ definition of peace differ from what we usually think of when we talk about peace? How does this help us understand why inner peace can exist even when life feels unsettled? Pastor Jon talked about peace in four directions—peace with God, peace within, peace with others, and peace that is still to come. Which of those do you feel most drawn to or most lacking right now, and how does Scripture invite you to take a step toward peace there?
In a world of chaos and uncertainty, lasting peace can only be found in Jesus Christ, who is THE Prince of Peace. Unlike temporary sources of comfort that fade away, Jesus offers eternal peace that doesn't depend on our circumstances. This biblical peace serves as an anchor during life's storms and can coexist with sorrow and difficulty. True peace comes through a personal relationship with Jesus, not just church attendance or religious activities. We access this peace by surrendering completely to Christ and spending intentional time with him through prayer, Bible reading, worship, and using our God-given gifts.
Peace reigns when we let go of control.

Greg Morse | At Christmas, the peace we forfeited comes to us as a child born, a son given, a prince we don't deserve.
Christmas isn't about chasing a fragile calm; it's about meeting the One who is Peace. We dive into Isaiah 9:6 and Luke 2 to explore why Jesus is called the Prince of Peace, how His arrival establishes unbreakable reconciliation with God, and what that means for anxious hearts and complicated family rooms. Instead of teaching you to “try harder” at serenity, we walk through a better way—receiving the presence of Christ and letting His peace rule your heart when the night feels longest.We unpack the difference between human treaties and God's permanent peace, and we get practical about carrying peace into real life: tense gatherings, frayed nerves, and the pressure to keep traditions perfect. You'll hear how aligning spirit, soul, and body with the God of peace (1 Thessalonians 5:23–24) reshapes your responses, helps you set healthy boundaries without bitterness, and turns you into a quiet catalyst for reconciliation. From the glow of Christmas lights to the quiet work of blessing others by name, we share habits that move you from control to trust.Stay to the end for a spoken blessing of peace drawn from Scripture—words to still your mind, guard your heart, and remind you that His government and His peace will never end. If you're longing for more than a mood, come rediscover the Person who brings wholeness, comfort, and courage that lasts beyond the season.
Brother James Halford preached for our Christmas Eve Service
700 years before the first Christmas, God made a promise through the prophet Isaiah that a king would come and bring light to the world. He would be a Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace! During this series, we will take a look at how Jesus fulfills that promise and serves those roles in our lives as well! • Westbridge Church is people helping people FIND and FOLLOW JESUS!

309 | The Prince of Peace by Jonathan Edwards
Message: Mark Christian, Senior MinisterPassage: Luke 2:8–14Series: Presence Under The Tree
Today's Promise: Isaiah 9:6 Centuries before the birth of Jesus, the prophet Isaiah pointed forward to the coming Messiah and gave Him a name filled with hope: the Prince of Peace. In today's episode, we pause on that final promise from Isaiah 9:6 and reflect on what it means for us during the Christmas season. While Christmas is meant to be joyful, it can also be filled with stress, anxiety, travel plans, family dynamics, and last-minute worries. In the middle of all the noise and pressure, God offers us something the world cannot: true and lasting peace. Jesus doesn't just bring peace; He is our peace. This episode invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and rest in the presence of Christ. Through Scripture, reflection, and simple confessions of faith, you'll be reminded that when you have Jesus, you have peace beyond measure. Today, worship the Prince of Peace and let His perfect peace guard your heart.
Many believers live with anxiety not because God withholds peace, but because we haven't learned to walk closely with the One who gives it. Jesus doesn't offer temporary calm; He offers lasting wholeness.

In this message, we will look to the last of four unique titles given to our Messiah, Jesus Christ, in Isaiah 9. In doing so, we will seek to prepare our hearts for His coming arrival, so that we might not look to any lesser deliverers for our hope and redemption. Scripture: Isaiah 9:6
This Sunday is the final Sunday of our Advent series from Isaiah 9:6: “His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” On this final week, we will focus on the fourth title, Prince of Peace. We will see that Jesus came to give the world peace with God, peace with each other, and peace in our hearts.
For Christmas at PromiseLand, Pastor Robin concludes our Unto Us sermon series in Isaiah 9, reflecting on Jesus as our Prince of Peace and what that means for our lives today.
