2 Peter 1:3-4 (PHILLIPS)
“He has by his own action given us everything that is necessary for living the truly good life, in allowing us to know the one who has called us to him, through his own glorious goodness. It is through him that God’s greatest and most precious promises have become available to us men, making it possible for you to escape the inevitable disintegration that lust produces in the world and to share in God’s essential nature.”
We no longer need to strive to live a life pleasing unto to Him but rather draw upon Him as we come to know Him more intimately. It is as this becomes so real to us that the scripture in Philippians 4:13 will explode with power within us!
Philippians 4:13 (AMP)
“I have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me [I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me; I am self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency].”
To God be the glory!!!!
