We children of God, were called not just to believe in Jesus but also to suffer for his sake (see Philippians 1:29). That means it’s erroneous to think there’s no suffering for you when you come to Christ. There is, but since Jesus becomes the author and finisher of your faith, no situation will be able to weigh you down in life.
1st Peter chapter 5 is the last chapter of the epistle. And although the Apostle spoke about various things in previous verses, he knew that it was worth it to conclude his epistle by giving spiritual advice to pastors, which when followed, will sustain God’s church. Find out some explained things, all from 1 Peter 5:1-4, pastors must do in doing God’s work with excellence and diligence.
Verse 11 and downwards of 1 Peter chapter 2 opens a new area of teaching where Apostle Peter speaks on how the children of God ought to live in this fallen world. One of them is the necessity for a believer to abstain from fleshly lusts.
Since all the things in the Earth and Earth itself will be dissolved on the second coming of Jesus Christ, there is a clarion call on each believer to be in holy conduct and godliness.
From 1 Peter 2:13 – 3:7, the Apostle Peter expounded on the various types of submissions we believers must give to one another. And in today’s study scripture article release, I want to focus on 1 Peter 2:13-17, where Peter explains why a believer ought to submit himself to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake.
To sanctify the Lord God in your heart means to revere Him every single time, whether man recognises it or not. That is why as a believer, doing the right thing at all times will amaze others. But such is your life.
God, in His mighty power, has bestowed upon each of His children everything they need for life and godliness. This is an incredible truth, isn’t it? Yet, why do many believers find life challenging? It’s because there’s a process to access the provisions God has made. Delve deeper in this study.
Your human calculations of how God works will never be able to predict all of God’s doings in your life accurately. Some of the things you pray for may take longer than you imagined. Other times, God may fulfill a promise He made to you quite faster than you can imagine. Don’t limit God by your human calculations.
Today’s Word is a reference to our suffering and probably an encouraging message to you and me. That is, our author and finisher of our faith, Christ, also suffered for sins. So even though we suffer for righteousness’ sake, Christ suffered and paid the price of the righteousness we are in Him.
In 1 Peter 1:10-12, Apostle Peter nailed the doctrine about how God’s great salvation purposed for us was planned to get manifested in the dispensation of grace.
Do not forget that God’s Word remains true despite the changing things in the world. If you ever lose consciousness of this, at least remind yourself how old the Bible is, yet it has never faded or lost impact.
Even if you made the wrong choice, God knows how to order your steps back on track for His destiny in your life. Fret not, dear one. No matter who did that bad thing to you, remember that vengeance is from the Lord.
Amongst the many enemies believers have, the chief is the devil. He has no love, pity or sense of humour. Even in John 10:10, Jesus said clearly that this devil exists just to steal, kill and destroy. In this study scripture article, we will delve deeper into what the Apostle Paul wrote concerning this devil. After reading this article, I pray that you will know how to give no chance to the devil in your faith journey.
Receiving a calling in Christ is not enough. Neither is it enough to know you have been elected by grace (as in, God has chosen you in Christ – see Ephesians 1:4). You need diligence to ensure you reach the high calling God has destined you to get.
In the world of work, many people complain about how bad their bosses are. Some want to enjoy freedom at the workplace, doing whatever they like with company resources without fulfilling the tasks the company hired them to do. And this has made several workplaces lack hardworking and loyal employees who rarely don’t need supervision to do what they are supposed to do. Apostle Peter nails this behaviour hard with three scriptures: 1 Peter 2:18-20. Delve into today’s study scripture article, which speaks of why you should submit to your boss no matter what.
If Jesus comes today, will He judge the people in the Old Testament who lived by the Law differently from the New Testament believers? Find out the answer in this Study Scripture article.
Dear believing wife, you’re also a seed of Abraham (see Galatians 3:29) because you’re in Christ. So call your husband “lord.” He should be your second in command in life; the first is God. Submit to him. Relate to him in a quiet and gentle spirit, not a rebellious character; else, you’ll ruin his peace of mind. And above all, follow God’s principle in relating to all people in all calmness and gentility.
Trials come to test the genuineness of a believer’s faith in the Lord. And after passing through various situations in life while standing strong in what God has said, you’ll see that the Lord being with you is greater than anything in this world.
