2 Peter 1:4

Growing in the Knowledge of Gods

4 And by that same mighty power, he has given us all of his rich and wonderful promises. He has promised that you will escape the decadence all around you caused by evil desires and that you will share in his divine nature. (NLT)

By Jesus’ power He has given to us a share in His inheritance, His riches and His wonderful promises. Why? Because of His great love for us. He gave of Himself so that we could have so much more than what we had. Sometimes we miss the meaning of what Christ has given to us; it is not about material things or money but about spiritual things. The things of the Spirit are more important than the things of the flesh or of the world. He may give us material things or money to use but they are in last place compared to the spiritual life. It is your place in Christ to share in His divine nature, to become like Him so that others will see Christ in you.

You will share in His divine nature.

Love is our greatest gift and promise ever received from Christ, yet sometimes it is not at the top of our list as it should be. The Greatest Commandment is “Love the Lord your God with all you have” and “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Love. Our life is now to be lived in Christ, to follow Christ and to know Him more and more every day.

Christ is Love.
