Today’s Scripture: Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. 1 Peter 1:13 ESV
At the end of our road where will we turn? If we have not one more day to do or act where will we turn for hope in salvation? To the same place we turn today; fully to the grace of Jesus Christ.
In the very next verse Peter tells us we are being conformed into holiness. My hope is set there on the grace of Jesus and the power of the Holy Spirit to conform me. I do not have this power in myself but the power of God guards me and His Word renews me.
Just as Peter told us in verse 23 we are born again in the living and abiding word of God. I have found this to be true that I find renewed hope, faith and joy in His Word. My hope is in Him for the obedience that will purify my soul.
Is all of your hope in the grace of Jesus Christ?
Today’s Prayer: Father God, thank You for the grace of Jesus Christ and for Your Word. I fully set all of my hope in You. I love You and believe You. I am trusting that Your Spirit will conform me to be holy in all of my conduct so I can fully share Your good news and saving grace with others. Amen
