Just because many things are continuing the way they were after Jesus physically left the Earth doesn’t mean God’s Word of prophecy has been annulled. Take care of your spiritual health and be mindful of what you hear.
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.
1 Peter 2:1-3 speaks about spiritual growth. And it’s not only for newborn babes in Christ, but also for mature believers. Delve in deeper!
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.
Since believers in Christ are looking forward to the second coming of Christ (see 2 Peter 3:12-13), there are things we can do to prepare ourselves towards that. That is, being steadfast in the Lord so we can diligently live according to His dictates in peace, without spot and blameless. From this, it’s pretty clear there’s no space for funfaring when it comes to living by the principles of God. You need to be vigilant and give no space for the devil.
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.
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.
[1] “Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ: [2] Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,” – 2 Peter 1:1-2 (NKJV)

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.
In 1 Peter 2:7-10, Apostle Peter revealed the importance of building everything on the chief cornerstone — Jesus. As a believer, you must understand this because you’re God’s chosen one, a priest and part of His holy nation.
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.
When humans sin, it really infuriates God. I believe the ongoing sins in this generation are far worse than those committed by the people who lived in Noah’s time. But one thing that hasn’t made God wipe out the human race was the declaration He made when Noah offered a sacrifice unto Him that He won’t destroy the Earth with water again (see Genesis 8:21). Nevertheless, the second coming of Jesus is near, and God will judge the Earth. So live clean before Him.
Have you heard of the Bereans in Acts 17:10-15? Paul preached the Word powerfully to them. But they went to check the scriptures to confirm whether or not what Paul said was true. That is wisdom. It is not enough to hear the Word of God being preached. You must know God for yourself. When you know God, you will understand His ways and, therefore, not follow the destructive ways of the false prophets.
I want to tell you that there is a process between the time you pray when God reveals His promise to you in bits and when you see those promises materialise. You can’t get everything God promises you the moment He reveals to you. It takes time to fulfil a promise you make to someone, even as a human. How much more God?
While 2 Peter 1:5-7 teaches us to cultivate seven significant things that will make us productive in our knowledge of Christ, 2 Peter 1:8-9 tells us about knowing Jesus – the benefits of abounding in such divine knowledge and the effect of neglecting it.
You cannot save someone from a thing you are a slave to. In God’s house, that works so much. If a pastor is battling with lust in secret, no matter how well he teaches against it in public, the people won’t change. You are a living witness of Jesus. So prioritize living clean before Him.
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.
In the last study scripture article release, I spoke extensively about the deceptions of false teachers in the Body of Christ, starting from 2 Peter 2:18-19. Today, I am continuing the same series from a second part of that same Bible verse region. Let’s dive in.
