Today's Verse - 2 Peter 3:10-11 (KJV)

But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

—2 Peter 3:10-11 (KJV)

Thoughts on Today's Verse...​

Holiness is that forgotten character virtue that is the Christian's reflection of God, his or her holy and righteous Father. In a day when grace is so easily cheapened, when anything goes just as long as we want to be buddies with Jesus, Peter's words should shock us into reverence — the holy commitment to set our lives apart from the evil and satanic sludge that defiles our world and to offer our bodies, hearts, and minds to do his will and reflect his character.

My Prayer...​

Holy and Righteous Father, teach me to do your will and reflect your character while offering your grace to others. May the movements of my heart, the thoughts of my mind, and the actions of my life be pleasing to you and reflect your holiness and grace. In Jesus' holy name I pray. Amen.

[Hattie]

The earth will be burned with fervent heat.. says God's word. I think the sun will do this job because all lakes, rivers and lands are getting so hot and dry. Fishes are dying out by the thousands. O Lord, deliver us from this horrible end. Amen

I am waiting for the Lord to come and take us all home to heaven. This is not our home, we are heaven bound and we need Jesus today to lead us all to His glory.

 

[Rizakar]

Only You know Lord how I long to live my life pleasing to You now and forever in Your Holy Name I pray. Amen.
