Today God says:
 "Jesus Christ is the Prince of Peace"

He promises me:
  "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon His shoulder: and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace". (Isa. 9:6)

My response to the word:
  Jesus gives me supernatural peace. He said, "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid". Throughout this day I will walk in the peace Jesus gives to me. His peace is a peace that the world cannot give and the world cannot take it away.

My prayer:
  Lord God, thank you for your gift of peace in my life. Help me to share your peace with everyone I meet today.

Today's scriptures:
 "I'm leaving you peace. I'm giving you my peace. I don't give the kind of peace that the world gives". (John 14:27 GW) "May the Lord of peace give you His peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you". (2 Thess. 3:16 GW) "May this God of peace prepare you to do every good thing He wants". (Hebr. 13:21 GW)  

Quote for today:
Peace is the deliberate adjustment of my life to the will of God. (Unknown)
