His Glory and Excellence

2 Peter 1:By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence. And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world’s corruption caused by human desires. (NLT)

2 Peter 1 (NLT)

Dear Ones: His Glory and Excellence have made great provisions and promises for us who believe in His Son. These promises are so wonderful that we get to share in Christ’s divine nature. This nature works in us as a glory force so that the fruits of His nature will be produced in our lives.

The end goal of Christianity is to be conformed to the image of the Son: manifest the attributes of His divine nature. The bar is set high, but He has assured our success by giving us everything we need for living a godly life. As you begin a new week, let these words encourage you. His glory and excellence are working Christ in you as you go about your daily tasks on the job and at home. It is an awesome promise to be given the right to share His divine nature.

May His glory and excellence fill your soul this week. Partake of His grand provisions and enjoy being His child. Share the joy of His love with others who may need a word of encouragement or a helping hand. Have an excellent week. I bless you in Jesus’ name.
