As we get ready to start 2 Peter.
I want to reflect on 1 Peter.
The key things from this book are Godly living, serve God willingly, and share the suffering of Christ.
We are to be subject to wife's and to our husbands.
3 In the same way, you wives, be subject to your own husbands so that even if any of them are disobedient to the word, they may be won over without a word by the behavior of their wives,
7 You husbands in the same way, live with your wives in an understanding way, as with someone weaker, since she is a woman; and show her honor as a fellow heir of the grace of life, so that your prayers will not be hindered.
We are to be humble sums up the first part of living Godly.
8 To sum up, all of you be harmonious, sympathetic, loving, compassionate, and humble;
I want to pause before we go any further and say humble becomes before anything you do.
An example of this is James 4:6, 6 But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, “God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
We have to be humble to get and do what the verse next after 6 says.
7 Submit therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
We are to be humble in all that we do, say and how we live.
Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, Colossians 3:12
Right here it tells that we are to have/ do this daily not because it says daily but because it says put on.
Verse after verse in the Bible talks about being humble.
We are to be Humble before God. But more importantly we are to Humble in all that we do.
Our wives, our husbands are example from 1 Peter.
Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you. James 4:10
Be Humble today!!!!
