THE BIG IDEA: We have peace because truly, accurately, and absolutely, God is in control - He is governing it all. Isaiah 9:1-7 (p.479) The message of Christmas is incredibly CONFRONTATIONAL. And it changes EVERYTHING! The key to peace is GOVERNANCE. Matthew 28:18 (p.698) 1 Corinthians 15:25 (p.801) Luke 1:32-33 (p.714) How do we find and rest In His peace? 1. Stop trying to GOVERN everything yourself. 2. Personally surrender to His GOVERNANCE. 3. Exercise appropriate levels of SELF-GOVERNANCE. 4. Trust the Righteousness and Justice of His GOVERNMENT.
