The Prince of Peace by David Jeremiah

The Prince of Peace Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. John 14:17 An anonymous poem appeared in the Church of England Magazine on March 3, 1858. No one knows its author, although various theories are suggested. It’s a simple prayer, and perhaps its words will encourage you today, 161 years after they were published.

Recommended Reading: John 14:1-6

Prince of Peace, control my will; Bid my struggling heart be still; Bid my fears and doubts to cease, Hush my spirit into peace. May Thy will, not mine, be done; May Thy will and mine be one; Chase these doubtings from my heart, Now Thy perfect peace impart. Peace is elusive in our world today, but we have the Prince of Peace with us, and He gives us His perfect peace. Let not your heart be troubled. Ask Him today for His peace—and claim it.
