2 Peter

2 Peter 1- A gift does not reach it's intended potential until it is opened. 2 Peter 1:3 tells us that God has given us everything we need for life and godliness. Everything we need! Let that sink in for a minute. But we must take time everyday to go to Him, draw near to Him and receive. How wonderful to know that even if it has been weeks, months, or even years He is delighted to see us and longs to give us everything we need and fulfill his very great and precious promises

2 Peter 2 - "The Lord knows how..." What a comfort!!! Our day to day life, the chaos in this world, things beyond our understanding and control can plague our minds and hearts with fear, worry, anxiousness and a sense of hopelessness BUT! For the believer we have hope and rest in remembering that "the Lord KNOWS how!!!" Rest in that today! 2 Peter 2:9

2 Peter 3 - This world is going to come to an end, it will be judged by fire. Yet, I have been rescued from that judgement by the blood of Jesus Christ! So... How then should I live? Pursing the riches of this world? No. I should be seeking and working for the Kingdom of God! His patience and long suffering means salvation for others! I have been rescued and called to be salt and light through holy and godly living. Lord help us, as your ambassadors to focus on what really matters! May your gospel be preached to all the nations and in my neighborhood!!
