Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end

He shall judge between the nations,
and shall decide for many peoples;
and they shall beat their swords into plowshares,
and their spears into pruning hooks;
nation shall not lift up sword against nation,
neither shall they learn war any more. (Isaiah 2:4)

If we've been experiencing world peace for the past 2000 years, I must have missed it.

upon the throne of David

Jesus never sat upon the throne of David.
