Sar-Shalom
שַׂר שָׁלוֹם
Prince of Peace — the Ruler whose government is peace
Symbol: The dove descending — peace given, not negotiated
“Of the greatness of his government and peace there will be no end... He will reign on David's throne and over his kingdom.”
Isaiah 9:6
Not merely a messenger of peace but the Prince of it — peace rules because He rules.
What the name means
Shalom is wholeness — nothing missing, nothing broken — not merely the absence of conflict.
His government increases peace where the world's governments increase anxiety.
The Prince of Peace rules from a throne, so His peace is not fragile weather — it is kingdom law.
How to pray this name
- Invite His government into the area of turmoil: 'Prince of Peace, rule here.'
- Let the peace that passes understanding actually arbitrate — make decisions where it rests.
Sar-Shalom, Prince of Peace, take the throne over my anxiety and rule my heart with Your shalom. In the Mighty Name of Jesus! Amen.
Declaration
The Prince of Peace reigns over me — of the increase of His peace in my life there will be no end.
