1 Peter 3

Father, fill me today that I will grow in the grace and knowledge of my Lord and Savior, Jesus, your Christ. Today I’m diligent to seek you and to be found in you, Lord, in peace without spot, and blameless.

I know that you, Father, are the God of time. To you one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years is as a day. You are not bound by time, and you, and you alone, set your time table.

You are not slack about your timing, but you are merciful to wait on those whom you have called to repentance and salvation.

But “The day of the Lord” is coming. It will come unexpectedly. The heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.

Therefore, I seek your holiness and Godliness, Father, and I look for a new heaven and a new earth where righteousness dwells.
