2 Peter 1:2–3 2Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, 3as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue,
Imagine if God were to visit you in a dream tonight and ask
you what He could do for you. What would you say to Him? Would
you ask Him to give you a deeper knowledge of Jesus our Lord?
God’s Word tells us that when you receive revelation in the
knowledge of Jesus, it will cause grace and peace to be
multiplied in your life. It will cause you to receive all
things that pertain to life and godliness.
What is grace? It is the unmerited, unearned and undeserved
favor of God shown to us. There is nothing we can do to earn
God’s grace. But the more we learn of the beauty and love of
our Lord Jesus, the more we see His perfect work on the cross,
and the more we position ourselves to receive a multiplication
of God’s grace in our lives.
The verse says that peace too, is multiplied to us through
the knowledge of Jesus our Lord. The peace of God sets our
hearts free from fear, stress, worries, anxieties and cares.
Wouldn’t you want to have the peace of God presiding over your
heart always?
God’s divine power has given us all things that pertain not
just to godliness, but to life as well. Wouldn’t you say that
health, money, a good job and a nice home for your family
pertain to life? Well, all these things and everything else
which God has already given is released to you through the
knowledge of Jesus our Lord.
So let’s ask God every day, “Father, give me wisdom and
revelation in the knowledge of Jesus.” For to know Jesus is to
have grace and peace multiplied to us. To know Jesus is to
receive all things pertaining to life and godliness!
