"Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood."
Acts 20:28
weekly message
“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” (Isaiah 9:6)
“He will be called Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace”. What does this mean? This child will be recognized as eternal – He has no beginning; He has no end. He existed before He came to earth, and He will exist forever. And God’s people needed a reassurance that God would always take care of them.
The word for peace in the Hebrew is shalom. This word we translate as peace is a rich and powerful concept. Shalom means well-being, happiness, peace. Jesus is the ruler of peace. Jesus brought peace in His miracles, in His Words, and in His presence. Let Jesus be your peace and everlasting presence during this Christmas Season and always!
