Growing in Grace
2 Peter 1:2
May grace and peace ever be increasing in you, in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord
Grace (God's favour) and Peace (which is perfect well-being, all necessary good, all spiritual prosperity, and freedom from fears and agitating passions and moral conflicts) can only be multiplying when we remain in Christ.
Remaining in Christ is to have reverential fear for and of Him. A sinner have the grace to come out of sin and live righteously but to grow in grace is day dreaming, likewise the sinning Christian.
Take a look at Samson in the Bible, the grace of God in His life didn't increase in his act of disobedience to God. Samson isn't supposed to die in the way he died.
Beloved, spend time in studying the scriptures that you'll know God thereby growing in grace.
PRAYERS
1 - Lord, empower me to study more of you.
2 - Lord, help me that I'll not take your grace in my life for granted.
3 - Lord help me to continually grow in knowledge and grace. Shalom!
