Testimony 23/03/06: Knowledge of God

“Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.” 2 Peter 1:2

I was reading the Bible when I bumped into this verse.

Grace and peace. Isn’t that what we need in this time and age? When demands of live cry out as soon as we put our feet on the floor in the morning? When stress of work comes knocking at our office doors? When bills mount up at the end of the month? Even when we watch news at night about how corrupted this world is?

Grace and peace. That’s what we need. We need grace and peace when we feel uncertain on where live leads us to. When problems come and we are not sure what to do. And grace and peace shall be ours… in ABUNDANCE! Yes, in abundance!

How? THROUGH the KNOWLEDGE of God and of Jesus our Lord. Romans 10:17 says, “Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word of Christ.” God is faithful. God is good. His love endures forever. God is just. He is righteous. He is holy and He has accepted us in the righteousness of His Son, Jesus Christ.

If we don’t know the divine qualities of God, how can we have peace when we are in trouble? How can we know He is strong to help? How can we know that God is going to help us in the first place? How can we be sure that everything will work for good?

Let us get to know Him more today, that we may have grace and peace in abundance.
