Scripture Post #1,272: *PRECIOUS PROMISES*

2nd Peter 1:

3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:

4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

GOD's divine power has given us all things that pertain to life and godliness. He has called us to glory and virtue. It is by our glorious calling that we are given exceeding great and *PRECIOUS PROMISES*. Promises of GOD's love, unity, forgiveness, grace, mercy, favor, blessings and all the other written promises of GOD's Word. By these promises, we can be made partakers of His divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. Lust corrupts us. GOD is looking out for us when He commands us not to sin. He's not trying to end our fun; He's trying to ignite it! That we burn off the sin that holds us back from our blessings, brushing off the ashes of lust, and walking in the precious promises GOD has for us.
