2 Peter 1:2 (CJB) 2 May grace and shalom be yours in full measure, as you come to a full knowledge of God and Yeshua our Lord.
Good news!
It
is His promises that enable us to become partakers of His divine nature.
In 2 Peter
1:5-10 you will observe seven
qualities that we have “in Messiah” which are required of us in order to keep
us from becoming idle or unfruitful. By
adding to your diligence toward His divine promises, employ all effort in
exercising your faith in Him to develop excellence,
and in excellence add knowledge, and
with knowledge develop self-control,
and with self-control develop patient
endurance, and in endurance add godliness,
and in exercising godliness develop brotherly
affection, and to this affection walk
in the love of God always.
These
qualities are yours in Messiah Yeshua, Christ Jesus. They are treasures from your inheritance in
Him in accord with God’s riches in glory. Pay the price for the manifestation of these
treasures in you. Cut away anything and
everything that is resistant, that creates an obstacle or barrier against them. Press in and practice for their manifestation
in you. Entrance into our Father’s
Kingdom is no longer a mystery (Colossians 1:26-27).
Receive
what is yours in Messiah humbly, thankfully, forcefully.
2 Peter 1:11 (CJB)
11 Thus you will be generously supplied with everything you need to enter the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Deliverer, Yeshua the Messiah.
