THEME: BE HOLY

1 Peter 1:13-16 NIV

“Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming. As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.”

INSIGHT

-The Lord gave instructions through Moses to speak to the assemblies of Israel saying, “Be holy because I, the Lord your God, am holy” (Leviticus 19:1-2). God calls for us to be separated from sin and sinful men who cause corruption of character. Christ invites us to be aware of His second coming and the power of His grace that saves us from sin and unrighteous living. The same words are used in 1 Peter 5:8 to inform us of the need to be alert and sober. Caution is made that we have an enemy, the devil who prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour, and therefore we are called to resist him and stand firm in faith that causes obedience to God’s word.

PRAYER

Dear Lord Jesus we come to Your throne of grace so that we may obtain grace and mercy to help us during our time of need. We need Your grace that brings salvation and empowers us to say no to sin, deny ungodliness and worldly lusts that we may live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of You our great God and Savior Jesus Christ. We thank You dear Jesus for Your redeeming work on the cross and Your saving blood that cleanses us and helps us to live soberly. We give You all the thanksgiving, honor and adoration for all You have done in our lives and for who You are. May You sanctify our hearts, families, nation and the nations of the world we may see You oh Lord. May You purify us by Your precious blood and transform us to be more like You oh Lord. Father we surrender ourselves to be useful vessels in Your Kingdom and to be Your faithful servants. We pray for our president that You may guide him in Your wisdom. We pray for president Trump that You may use him to cause a righteous change in Your kingdom. We pray this believing and trusting in Jesus mighty name. Amen.

Blessed Tuesday
