GROW IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF YOUR COMPLETENESS IN CHRIST
2Peter 1:3-4 (NLT)
By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence. And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises…that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world’s corruption caused by human desires.

God has given you everything that you need to live a complete and godly life just like Him. You are so full of God and you have the ability to manifest His character and nature. God has given us His very great and precious promises so that we can partake of His divine nature and escape the corruption in the world that comes through lusts. The promises of God are already our reality in Christ, (2Cor.1:20). You are not going to partake of God’s divine nature and escape the corruption of the world in the future. You are a partaker of God’s divine nature right now and you have escaped the corruption that is in the world right now.
It happened when your old life died with Christ and a new you was raised up with Him, (Eph.2:4-6). This new being is one with Christ, (1Cor.6:17). This means you have God’s nature of love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control, (Gal.5:22-23). Never allow the devil or the flesh tell you that you do not have these things in you.
Let God be true and let all else be liars. As you thank God that you have them in you and yield yourself to Him, they will manifest more in you.
Prayer:
I thank you Dear Father, for you have filled me with your fullness and I have the ability to manifest your character and nature.
