“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who by God’s power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials, so that the tested genuineness of your faith—more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire—may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.”
‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭1:3-7‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,This stands out because Peter says, “who by God’s power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.”  Do we think of faith as guarding us?  We all will put our faith in something. However, the only faith that is real is faith in God. We are like sheep and He is the Shepherd (Psalm 23) that knows the future and knows the plans He has for us. Please pray that we and our friends put all our faith in Jesus today by joyfully obeying His Word. Please pray for more leaders to have a true relationship with Jesus.
