Week 2 focuses on the coming of peace through Jesus.
Prince of Peace
Read Isaiah 9:6-7. Here we learn that Jesus is a ruler who will bring true and lasting peace to the earth.
What are some of the sources of conflict in our world? In our families?
Pray and thank Jesus that someday he will return and bring an end to all the conflict in the world.
Healer
Read Psalm 103:1-5
Other than physical healing, what are other kinds of healing God can do?
Read Mathew 9:35-36
Jesus had great compassion for people. Who are some people you can develop a heart of compassion for? Ask God to help you do this.
Overcomer of Evil
Read John 16:33
What are some examples of the “trouble” Jesus’ followers face in the world?
Romans 8:35-39
How does it feel to know that Jesus’ love and power is greater than any of these things?
Pray for God to give us his perspective when we go through difficult times.
Peacemaker
Read James 3:17-18
God’s wisdom is pure; peace–loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. Which of these is the hardest for you?
What are some situations where you could be a peace-maker?
