Thanksgiving In 2 Peter 1 (May 14)

Thk God for Enabling Godly Living

Peter’s second letter teaches
opposing internal spiritual struggles
and attacks by Satan with the
knowledge of the truth. Peter warns
against apostasy within the church,
moral perversions and the denial of
Christ’s return that false teachers
propagate. He exhorts his readers
to grow in grace and knowledge
that come through Jesus Christ,
thereby gaining strength to
resist error and avoid heresy.

Lord, You Enable Godly Living:
By His divine power, God has given
us everything we need for living
a godly life. We have received
all of this by coming to know Him,
the one who called us to Himself.
He has given us great & precious
promises; which enable you to
share His divine nature (2Pet 1:3-4)
And so we have the prophetic
Word confirmed, which you
do well to heed as a light that
shines in a dark place (v19) Amen

Father God, bless me with grace
& peace as I come to know Jesus
more and more. Open my eyes
and teach me how to develop a
more intimate relationship with U.
You promise Lord that as we get
to know Jesus better, His divine
power will give us everything
we need for living a godly life.
Help me grow spiritually; so that
I may live wholly for You. Amen.

Lord Jesus, as I purpose to be
diligent in Christian growth, help
me keep on knowing more of You.
Help me remember what You teach
& be diligent in faithful obedience.
Thank You that in Your goodness,
U not only Rescue but also Free
me. And I claim your promises:
that You Give us Godly Nature and
that You Enable Godly Living. Amen

Holy Spirit, teach me how to tap
into Your divine power so that I will
not lack anything that You offer.
Fill me continually Lord, and be
ever present within me; for I want to experience You more & more.
Increase daily the evidence of
Your presence in my life. And make
Your home in me so that I can
become a clear demonstration
of Your power & goodness. Amen
