Abound in Knowledge
Good morning
Scripture reading: 2 Peter 1: 1–10
Worship song: Worthy
Meditation:
In addition to staying pure from worldly corruption and being diligent, Peter's letters outline several specific attributes of good stewardship. He advised us to add these attributes to remain fruitful and fertile. The Apostle Peter describes a process for developing spiritual maturity. His guidelines instruct believers to purposefully adopt Christlike characteristics, behave in a righteous and godly manner, use their gifts to serve others, practice cheerful hospitality, and remain humble. We must actively use the resources God has given us to guide our actions and achieve our purpose. The more knowledge we have of God, the closer we get to Him, and the more we learn to apply the steps necessary for spiritual growth, of which the greatest attribute that we need to obtain is love. When we forsake all to follow Christ, the word of God empowers us, and the Holy Spirit equips us to advance in life through Him who called us out of darkness into his marvelous light.
Let's pray:
Father of wisdom and limitless grace and mercies, name above
all, be thou glorified. Father, we give you thanks, O God, for the knowledge
that you have imparted to us. Father, we give thanks for your divine power,
your precious promises, and everything you have made accessible to us as needed
to help us grow spiritually and live our lives to the fullest. Almighty God, we
realize that some important attributes are necessary to help us become
effective and fervent. We seek, O God, and desire in our lives virtue,
patience, compassion, temperance, kindness, and most of all, brotherly love.
Abba Father, we desire to be fruitful and fertile stewards, working together
with the help of the Holy Spirit to perfect our lives in Christ through
godliness and holiness. Father, we pray for forgiveness, blood coverage, grace,
and mercy as we transition from corruption through Jesus Christ, who has purged
and washed away all our sins. I lift my heart in gratitude for all that you
have provided, Lord, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Wishing you a wonderful day. Shalom. ✌💞🙏
