Covenant of Peace: The Millennial Age<br />

Covenant of Peace Conclusion<br />

Peace comes through righteousness, and righteousness comes from the<br />

judgments of the Lord: “For when Your judgments are in the earth,<br />

the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness. Let grace be<br />

shown to the wicked, yet he will not learn righteousness.” (Isa. 26,9,10)<br />

So if we really desire the peace of God, we will rejoice when His<br />

judgments begin to fall. This is why the apostles and prophets and all<br />

of heaven rejoice when Babylon (the current world order/government)<br />

is judged, because they see that the Kingdom of God is soon coming.<br />

(Rev. 18:20)<br />

This is not freedom to hold wrath in our hearts, because “the wrath of<br />

man does not produce the righteousness of God.” (James 1:20) Man<br />

will not accomplish this peace by His own merit, rather it is the Lord<br />

IN us who will bring about this peace, as Isaiah 26:12 says, “LORD,<br />

You will establish peace for us, For You have also done all our works<br />

IN us.” All the focus and attention must be put on Jesus, who is the<br />

only reason that we have access to this wonderful Covenant of Peace<br />

which will soon be a reality in the earth. He paid the highest price of<br />

His life for our peace, as Isaiah 53:5 shows us, “the chastisement for<br />

our peace was upon Him.”<br />

“For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed.”<br />

Mountains and hills are Scriptural symbols for governments and ruling<br />

authorities. The current world governments will depart, and the occult<br />

religions will also be removed. “But my steadfast love shall not depart<br />

from you (the Lord’s Bride/wife). And My covenant of peace shall not<br />

be removed, says the Lord who has compassion on you” (Isa. 54:10).<br />

This Covenant of Peace will extend beyond the millennium and into<br />

eternity.<br />
