2 Peter 1:10-11

Growing in the Knowledge of Gods

10 So, dear brothers and sisters, work hard to prove that you really are among those God has called and chosen. Doing this, you will never stumble or fall away. 11 And God will open wide the gates of heaven for you to enter into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. (NLT)

“Work Hard” -- Oh, doesn’t that sound like a lot of hard work. The best things in life are the things you work hard for. God never said life here was going to be easy, but in much labor there is reward. In Proverbs there are verses that speak to the fact that those that are lazy will not receive, but those that work hard receive a reward. God wants you to work hard to prove to others that you are among the children of God that you are one of the called and chosen. Doing this, you will never stumble or fall away. As you work hard doing God’s will for your life God will provide everything you need to accomplish His will. And at the end of all your hard work God will open wide the gates of heaven for you to enter into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Work Hard for your Lord and Savior.
