For a child is born to us, a son is given to us. The government will rest on his shoulders and he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. -Isaiah 9:6(NLT)
PRINCE OF PEACE
A poem and essay by ILMA
A child is born to us so we can be free
We will all be saved by the Prince of Peace
He is the epitome of all that is righteous
He is the one who saved us from darkness
He is called Wonderful Counselor for he guides
Whenever we have trials, run to him and confide
He is the Mighty God who has power on everything
He alone has dominion and rules over all things.

There are many rulers and kings on earth but there is only one Prince of Peace. For so many years the enemy has ruled my heart and mind because of so many generational sins handed down to me. Satan kept me in the dark and I was a prisoner of my own needs and ambitions. No wonder peace can never have a place in my heart. Thanks be to God that he has freed me from all the lies that the enemy kept me believing for so many decades of my life.
The bible calls Jesus Christ as the prince of peace. It is only in Christ that we can find joy, peace, good counsel and ¬¬protection from the enemy.
PRAYER
Thank you for being my prince in shining armor Lord.
REFLECTION
What do you do when you lose peace?
