• 0:00
  I'm thinking today of 2 Peter chapter 1 verse
• 0:03
  3. I've been looking through this chapter quite
• 0:06
  a bit this morning and afternoon and I just want
• 0:10
  to kind of share the kind of the teaching that
• 0:11
  comes out of chapter 1 verse 3. His divine power
• 0:15
  has given us everything we need for a godly life.
• 0:19
  through our knowledge of him who called us by
• 0:21
  his own glory and goodness. His divine power.
• 0:25
  Well, God's not short on power, and Jesus carried
• 0:28
  out that. plan of God's perfectly. And so God
• 0:32
  is completely able. He's able to do literally
• 0:35
  anything. And he has chosen us as children of
• 0:38
  God, as brothers and sisters in Christ. And he
• 0:40
  has given us all that we need. And you could
• 0:43
  go down to food, money, jobs, houses, but something
• 0:48
  that can't be bought with money, some things
• 0:50
  that can't be bought with money, he has also
• 0:52
  provided. And whatever we have, wherever we are,
• 0:55
  we have the ability to lead a godly life. This
• 0:58
  is accomplished by knowing him, knowing more
• 1:01
  of him, knowing more of what he wants from us.
• 1:03
  And he has called us by his own glory that he
• 1:06
  deserves all the credit, all the honor, all the
• 1:08
  praise, and by the goodness of our God, he calls
• 1:11
  us. So basically, God has provided it. Let's
• 1:14
  walk it out. We are grateful, even though sometimes
• 1:16
  it's tough. that we have what we have and others
• 1:19
  have even less. You can guarantee it. And we
• 1:21
  just praise you, Lord, for what you've done in
• 1:22
  us.
