This is the fourth and final Truth and Action of 1st Peter in the Spirit Filled Life Bible. I will continue to do these because I fill led to do so. If there is a particular Book of the Bible you would like me to do please let me know in the comments.
The Walk of Faith
“The goal and reward of Faith is precious, even more precious than gold. God redefines our faith as gold as we go through trials and testing. Gold is refined by fire;as the temperature increases, impurities begin to become evident. As they surface, they can be removed, thereby purifying the gold, this is true with our faith as well. As we undergo testing and see the impurities of sin surface, we are to ask forgiveness so we can be made clean and pure. Embrace God’s refining work in you life; it is His mercy to you and will result in praise and honor to Him.
Action
Understand that our inheritance of salvation in Jesus is a living hope, kept for us in heaven where it cannot be ruined or fade away. Know that God’s mighty power in keeping you through faith for salvation.
Remember that as you endure suffering, your faith is being refined as with fire. Value your faith more that gold. Look toward the coming of Jesus, so that your faith, having been tested, will result in praise, honor, and glory to Jesus.
Understand that the goal of your faith is salvation”.
God shows His love and mercy to us daily when we believe in His Son, Jesus Christ. Our sins are impurities that are removed when we ask for forgiveness. We should strive to be more like Jesus everyday and we do that by listening to what God tell us in His Word. It is our instruction book on how to live all we have to do is read it and put it to action. God knows we are not perfect and that we are going to make mistakes that’s why He provided an way for us to be forgiven through Jesus. The sacrifice that Jesus made for us dieing on the cross was so much more than just a way to heaven by excepting Him as our savior, it is so much more than we can fathom. I thank Him everyday for what He has done for me because without Him I would be a very miserable person. May you find salvation through our living hope, Jesus Christ and the peace that surpasses all understanding. May the peace of God be with you.
God Bless,
