This year we have had the privilege and blessing of celebrating Christmas in our new house.
When we moved into our house, the Lord gave me this word… Peaceful Dwelling
My people will live in peaceful dwelling places, in secure homes, in undisturbed places of rest.
Isaiah 32:18
The word peaceful comes from the Hebrew word shalam
it means: completeness, soundness, welfare, peace
completeness (in number)
safety, soundness (in body)
welfare, health, prosperity
peace, quiet, tranquility, contentment
peace, friendship
of human relationships
with God especially in covenant relationship
God made a covenant relationship with us…
one of PEACE… one of completeness… one of safety… one that would restore us to Him
one that would make us whole, one the would compensate for our lacking's…
one that would make an end to our unrest… our searching…
For unto us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the greatness of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David's throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the LORD Almighty will accomplish this. Isaiah 9:6-7
He will be called Prince of Peace… of the greatness of His peace there will be no end…
peace came to us as a child, a son… one who would establish and uphold justice and righteousness…
one who would uphold us… a person full of grace and peace… so that our peace would be full…
Peace… Peaceful Dwelling…
My people will live in peaceful dwelling places…
The fruit of that righteousness will be peace; its effect will be quietness and confidence forever.
because that peace…. that peaceful dwelling place is JESUS…
May your Christmas be one of PEACE,
Merry Christmas from the Chellsen Clan
