TODAY’S VERSE
Rather, you must grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
II Peter 3:18 (NLT)
TODAY’S THOUGHT
Peter admonishes us to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. The word translated as “grace” in the New Testament means “favor, blessing, or kindness.” Peter suggests that we are to grow and mature in our experience of this grace. Interestingly, “in” usually means “passing through a door” as if you are going from one room to another. But this word that Peter uses for “in” is special. It means “to enter a new sphere of reality.” So in coming to God we have passed into a different sphere of existence, a new atmosphere of God’s favor, blessing, and kindness! Today, open your eyes to this new reality. You are living in the sphere of God’s grace and His unconditional love. Go and grow and mature in it.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Dear Father, help me understand what it means to live in this sphere of grace you have invited me into. Help me grow in your grace and knowledge.
AMEN
