Prince of peace, control my will

E425
1
Prince of peace, control my will;
Bid this struggling heart be still:
Bid my fears and doubtings cease:
Hush my spirit into peace.
2
Thou hast bought me with Thy blood,
Opened wide the gate to God;
Peace I ask, but peace must be,
Lord, in being one with Thee.
3
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.
4
Savior, at Thy feet I fall,
Thou, my life, my God, my all;
Let Thy happy servant be
One forevermore with Thee.

A. His Name to Be Called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace

----------

Isaiah 9:6 says that this One’s name is to be called “Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. ” Thus far, we have seen that this One is both Jesus and Immanuel. Isaiah 9:6 reveals four more items of what Christ is. Some translations separate the words Wonderful and Counselor with a comma, indicating that these are two separate titles. However, because the other items in 9:6 are composed of a noun with a modifier, it is logical to say that “Wonderful” should modify “Counselor. ” Christ is the Wonderful Counselor, the Mighty God, the Eternal Father, and the Prince of Peace.

The prophecy in Isaiah 7:14 concerning Immanuel can be seen in its fulfillment in Matthew 1:20-23 . The prophecy in Isaiah 9:6 concerning Christ as the wonderful One can be seen in its fulfillment in John 3:16 . Isaiah 9:6 says that “a child is born to us, a son is given to us. ” John 3:16 says, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son. ” John 3:16 is based upon Isaiah 9:6 . A son was given by a child being born. In the birth of that child, there was a gift given by God—His Son. That child was both a man-child and a God-child, that is, a God-man child. The Eternal Father gave us a gift, and that gift was His Son, who became the God-man.

He is the Prince Of Peace; the eternal Father becomes the Prince Of Peace. After men have sinned, they have no peace with God and no peace with men. Whether it is a case of husbands and wives, schoolmates, doctors and nurses, or teachers and students, they all have no peace among them. But this wonderful Savior is the Prince Of Peace. Once you have received Him, everything is in peace.
