Jesus is the Prince of Peace, and He can rule my heart.

A Bible affirmation for peace, rooted in Isaiah 9:6.

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government will be upon His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 9:6 · BSB

Reflection

Isaiah announced a child who would carry the government on His shoulders and be called Prince of Peace. If the weight of the world rests on His shoulders, it doesn't have to rest on yours.

Prince of Peace, take what's resting on my shoulders and rule my heart.
