2Peter 1:3 “His divine power has given us everything required for life and godliness through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.”
This is a statement about Jesus. He is (as verse 1 says) “our God and Savior.” He has “divine power” and so he not only wishes to do something, he is actually able to do it, he’s God. He “has given us” a great gift, and it’s “everything required,” there’s nothing you need that isn’t supplied. But it’s not just anything that’s needed to do whatever you want, it’s everything for “life and godliness” according to his plan. And it’s given, “through the knowledge of him.” Knowing Jesus is how we get everything we need to do all that God has made us to do. “who called us.” Jesus is calling you to know him and receive everything you need for all that he has made you for. And he is doing all this “by his own glory and goodness” so it’s not based on something you can earn. You don’t have to be good enough to get it, we just get it because of who he is, if we know him. Do you know him? Give him your life today. Trust in Jesus alone and receive this amazing gift!
