Bringing Peace

December 14, 2025   /   Cornerstone Global Methodist Church

Scripture Reading Isaiah 9:2-7

Peace on Earth – Do you have peace during this Christmastime?

  • Luke 2:10-14 – Jesus is announced by the angel to the shepherds that Jesus is bringing to earth.
  • Luke 10:38-42 – Jesus at the home of Mary, Martha, and Lazarus…which sister chose the “better” option? was the sister who chose the better option: interaction with

 

Grandparents or Granddaughter — which had more peace?

We have the to have peace on earth with Jesus; it’s not automatic.

We’re in the second act of a three act play: creation of our universe up to Jesus’ first arrival; life now between Jesus’ first arrival until Jesus’ second arrival; and eternal New Heaven and New Earth with resurrected bodies after that second arrival (for those with whom He is well pleased!). In this second act, we have the OPTION for peace — that we will have FULLY in the third act!

Isaiah 9:2-7 describes who Jesus is and how to have Peace on Earth through Him:

Child given– received

Wonderful counselor— listened to

Mighty God– submitted to

Everlasting Father– obeyed

ONE WORD OF WARNING FROM JESUS:

Matthew 10:34 ff — 34 “Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I have come to turn ‘a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—36 a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’”

 

Following Jesus as THE focus puts you at odds with those who do not. Don’t let that shake you – just be ready for others to try to shake your peace in Jesus!

  • Receive the Son of God whose name is !
  • Listen to the wonderful counselor, Jesus
  • Submit to the mighty God, Jesus
  • Obey the Everlasting Father of Jesus.

 You have to give effort to receive the peace Jesus is bringing you, but God is doing most of the work!

Isaiah 9:7 says: “The passionate commitment of the LORD of Heaven’s Armies will make this happen!”
