THE POWER OF GOD PROTECTS US FOR SALVATION, THROUGH FAITH
You, who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. – 1 Peter 1:5
God has already prepared everything we need in order to live the abundant lives Jesus came to give us, while we are in these physical bodies. But for the blessings to become ours, we must have faith. God has created us with free will, which means that we are not forced to receive His blessings or the help we need. Since we came to Jesus, the Holy Spirit warns us of any danger and keeps us from everything that is beyond our power to defend ourselves and our ability to endure.
As long as we want to live for the Lord and have faith in Him, the power of God keeps us safe and helps us to overcome the trials of life and the attacks of the enemy that wants to steal our salvation. The devil knows he will end up in hell forever. And in his attempt to make God suffer, Satan wants to take as many people with him as he can.
SUGGESTED PRAYER
Thank You Lord, that Your power keeps me safe so that I can keep my salvation to the end, no matter what the enemy does against me. Thank You for helping and protecting me. I am safe in Your hand and no one can pull me from there. Please help me grow in faith in You and in the desire to do Your will. Thank You for the wonderful place You have prepared for me in heaven! Praises and honor to Your holy Name Lord God. Amen
