IF YOU POSSESS THESE WUALITIES IN INCREASING MEASURE / 2 PETER 1:8

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) 2 Peter 1:8

For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

IF YOU POSSESS THESE WUALITIES IN INCREASING MEASURE / 2 PETER 1:8

  1. Peter is not implying that a Christian has to develop these traits in a precise order, one after the other, until they reach maturity or perfection. Instead, all of these qualities are to be cultivated all together and continually.
  2. The Christian experiences (a continuous relationship with the living God) should never remain stationary or stagnant. In fact, it could be said that if a person is not growing in faith, he or she is withering and dying spiritually (John 15:2). A person certainly cannot be productive to the fullest measure in serving God apart from consistent growth in faith, character and personal companionship with Jesus (Colossians 1:10; Titus 3:14). If we ever find that we are not being effective in our service to God, we must examine our lives to ensure that we are indeed growing in the character traits mentioned in (2 Peter 1:5-8).

ADD TO YOUR FAITH / 2 PETER 1:5-7

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) 2 Peter 1:5-7

And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; 7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

ADD TO YOUR FAITH / 2 PETER 1:5-7

Peter lists the positive character traits that a Christian must develop in order to be spiritually victorious, effective and productive in serving God (2 Peter 1:8). But false teachers had been teaching just the opposite: their special knowledge made some of these traits, such as self-control, unnecessary. But Peter makes it clear that Christians are to develop these traits. The phrase “make every effort” clearly explains that believers must be actively involved in their personal Christian growth (Philippians 2:12; Philippians 2:13). Those who become Christians should make it their goal to develop in their faith the list of seven qualities included in these few verses (2 Peter 1:5-8). Note that godly characteristics do not automatically grow without our dependence on God and our diligent effort to develop them.

PARTICIPATE IN THE DIVINE NATURE / 2 PETER 1:4

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) 2 Peter 1:4

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.

PARTICIPATE IN THE DIVINE NATURE / 2 PETER 1:4

Our participation in God’s very nature is another description of the new birth (being spiritually “born again,” John 3:3) by which we receive God’s life and spiritual salvation. We have the privilege of sharing in God’s nature, so we can fulfill the responsibility of conforming to His character and standard of holiness (1 Corinthians 6:19-20; Ephesians 4:24).

EVERYTHING WE NEED FOR LIFE AND GODLINESS / 2 PETER 1:3

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) 2 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:

EVERYTHING WE NEED FOR LIFE AND GODLINESS / 2 PETER 1:3

The love of our heavenly Father, salvation through Jesus Christ, Christ’s intercession (pleading our case before God) for us in heaven, the inner presence of and baptism in the Holy Spirit, the companionship of other Christians and God’s inspired Word are sufficient to meet all of our needs for life and godly character development (Matthew 11:28-30; Hebrews 4:16; 7:25; 9:14).

  1. No additional human wisdom, no technique or theory is needed to supplement or complete the message of God’s Word that reveals His perfect plan of salvation through Jesus Christ. The words of Jesus, along with the faith and teaching of those He used to communicate His original message as we have it in the New Testament, were adequate in the early days of the church to reveal God’s grace and meet the needs of the spiritually lost. The same message is just as adequate today. Absolutely nothing can offer more depth of insight or power to help people find true life than what God has already revealed to us through His Word. Jesus Christ alone in “the way and the truth and the life” (John 14:6).
  2. If the message we proclaim today seems to be lacking or ineffective in any way, it is because our message is something less than the gospel – the “good news” and true message of Christ – as revealed in the Bible.
  3. Part of Peter’s purpose in writing this letter may have been to combat an early form of the false teaching and philosophy of Gnosticism (from the Greek root gnosis, meaning “knowledge”). Those who held this belief argued that complete salvation came through a secret knowledge of some sort. The basic teaching was that “spirit” (the spiritual realm) is entirely good, while “matter” (the physical world) is entirely evil. This led to the belief that salvation was achieved through release from the body, which came not by faith in Christ, but by special knowledge. While this philosophy led some to its followers to practice extreme asceticism (denying and even punishing the physical body), it led others toward extreme sexual promiscuity and other physical indulgences because they believed that it did not matter what they did with their physical bodies. As long as they had the right beliefs, they felt that their physical actions did not affect them spiritually. This would fit some of the descriptions given later in the letter in relation to false teachers (2 Peter 2:10, 13-14, 18-19). Peter presents a hard and thorough challenge against this type of thinking. He makes it very clear that no other special knowledge is needed for true spiritual salvation.

DESPISED THE LORD’S WORD / NUMBERS 15:31

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Numbers 15:31

Because he hath despised the word of the Lord, and hath broken his commandment, that soul shall utterly be cut off; his iniquity shall be upon him.

DESPISED THE LORD’S WORD / NUMBERS 15:31

God distinguished between unintentional sins (sins committed but not deliberately or willfully) (Numbers 15:22-29) and intentional sins (sins committed willfully in defiance of God and His Word Numbers 15:30-31). Unintentional sin required atonement (Numbers 15:24-28), though it did not separate one from God’s chosen people. Deliberate and defiant sin, however, separated a person from the people of God and the redemption provided for them (Numbers 15:30-31; 1 John 3:15).

THE LORD … WILL NOT BE WITH YOU / NUMBERS 14:43

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Numbers 14:43

For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye shall fall by the sword: because ye are turned away from the Lord, therefore the Lord will not be with you.

THE LORD … WILL NOT BE WITH YOU / NUMBERS 14:43

Even though the Israelites pretended to repent and expressed a momentary trust in God’s promises (Numbers 14:40), they ignored God’s warning that He would not be with them. They made the fatal mistake of believing they could possess the promised land without obedience, faith and devoted fellowship with God (Numbers 14:40-44). In their momentary but misguided trust, they were defeated (Numbers 14:45). The important lesson for all believers is that the riches of God’s covenant cannot be obtained without the obedience that comes from faith (Romans 1:5). It is not enough to say that we trust God; it must be lived out in our personal lives. This message is found throughout Scripture (Numbers 32; Deuteronomy 1:20-40; Psalms 95:10; 106:24; Amos 2:10; 5:25; 1 Corinthians 10:1-11; Hebrews 3:7-4:13).

YOUR BODIES WILL FALL / NUMBERS 14:29

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Numbers 14:29

Your carcases shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward which have murmured against me.

YOUR BODIES WILL FALL / NUMBERS 14:29

The New Testament states clearly that God intended His judgment on Israel at that point in their journey to serve as a warning for all believers (1 Corinthians 10:11).

  1. The Israelites had the good news preached to them (Hebrews 4:6), were redeemed by the blood (Exodus 6:6; 12:13) and passed through the Red Sea (Exodus 14:21-22). They were baptized (compare Exodus 14:19-20; Exodus 14:29-30 with 1 Corinthians 10:2), ate spiritual food (Exodus 16:4; 1 Corinthians 10:3) and drank spiritual drink, the living water of Christ (1 Corinthians 10:4). They were also led by the Holy Spirit (Numbers 11:17-25).
  2. In spite of this redemption and experience of grace, the people grumbled against God (Numbers 14:2, 27), hardened their hearts (Hebrews 3:8), rebelled against Him (Numbers 14:2, 9), treated Him with disrespect and unbelief (Numbers 14:11; Numbers 14:23), tested Him (Numbers 14:22), disobeyed His commands (Numbers 14:41) and turned away from following Him (Numbers 14:43). 
  3. Their disobedience brought on them God’s wrath (1 Corinthians 10:5-10; Hebrews 3:10, 17), death and destruction (Numbers 14:29, 35), failure to enter the land of Canaan (Numbers 14:22-23) and loss of the presence of God’s rest (Psalms 95:7-11; Hebrews 3:11, 18).
  4. Because of Israel’s failure in the desert, believers are encouraged to “see to it … that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God” (Hebrews 3:12) and fails to “enter that rest,” heaven (Hebrews 4:11).

EGYPTIANS WILL HEAR ABOUT IT! / NUMBERS 14:13

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Numbers 14:13

And Moses said unto the Lord, Then the Egyptians shall hear it, (for thou broughtest up this people in thy might from among them;)

EGYPTIANS WILL HEAR ABOUT IT! / NUMBERS 14:13

Moses is a classic example of a person who is completely dedicated to God. He was more concerned about God’s reputation than his own success and honor (Numbers 14:12). When believers gratefully understand the Lord God and His holy love given through Christ, they too will desire above all else to declare the works of God and give Him glory (Numbers 14:21-22). Believers should represent Jesus Christ through their lives in such a way that unbelievers cannot find fault with the Lord.

REFUSE TO BELIEVE IN ME / NUMBERS 14:11

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Numbers 14:11

And the Lord said unto Moses, How long will this people provoke me? and how long will it be ere they believe me, for all the signs which I have shewed among them?

REFUSE TO BELIEVE IN ME / NUMBERS 14:11

At the heart of Israel’s rebellion was unbelief, which grew out of their failure to remember God’s past faithfulness, to trust Him as their Lord and to accept Him at His word. By their way of thinking, they could no longer rely on the Lord in all circumstances.

  1. To believe in God means to accept all He says as truth and act accordingly. The evidence is living a life by His promises, walking in His ways and loving Him with all our being (Deuteronomy 10:12).
  2. The presence of faith causes us to be accepted by God and counted righteous before Him (Genesis 15:6). The absence of faith condemns us (John 3:36).
