1. "I really thought I'd have peace. You know, if my problems would disappear. Or at least diminish a little bit. And the house... I would have peace if the house was clean, you know, and the car was fixed. And the kids weren't acting too badly. And the bills were paid off. Anybody know where I'm coming from? Have you ever been that way? You think, well, if this wasn't going on, yeah, sure, I could have peace. How many of you have been that way? I think we've all felt that way sometime in the past. But the Greek word for peace that my husband just read in that scripture, John 14, 27, is irene. And this is what it means. An internal posture. Independent of external circumstances."

No. But we get up problem after problem after problem. And the house can be a complete disastrous mess. Now, I know some of you guys, you don't even notice it. You know, for me, a house like my house is this morning drives me crazy. Anybody, chaos in the home, you know, train wreck of a house, everything's a mess. Does that bother you? Yes. See? But what we're saying is that our houses can be a complete mess. Our car can be in the garage. Our kids all be acting out at the very same time. And the bills piling up. I'm paid. problem after problem after problem. And you can still have peace with everything wrong that is going on in your life situations."

The way you embrace the peace is just to slow down, put the brakes on, turn the noise down, and just appreciate Jesus. You know, just settle into his presence. Because Jesus is the... You know, it's the promise of peace that Isaiah declared 700 years before his birth in Isaiah chapter number 9 verse 6. I speak Jesus. I speak his peace over every one of you right now. Amen."

4. "Of hope is worse than the challenge that you're facing. It becomes the problem. But remember every time that you declare the name of Jesus you are aligning yourself with God's will and inviting his intervention. So I challenge you that the name of Jesus would be your go-to response. Your first line of defense no matter what is going on in your life. Because his name there is strength. In his name there is comfort. In his name there is hope. And as the song says in his name there is hope and there is freedom. John 8 36. So if the son makes you free.

6. "When it comes to the name of Jesus I think it transcends human understanding I don't think we truly grasp it because Jesus name is the most powerful mightiest power known he has power but his power pales in comparison to the name of Jesus and I'm telling you right now the name of Jesus defeats the enemy's armies easily and the gates of hell cannot stop a church that comes against it in the name of Jesus darkness and shadows cannot withstand the light of Jesus that Jesus name brings the light of Jesus burns like a fire a never ending fire fueled by God's love."
