This verse has always been a great booster to my prayer life, especially when it comes to interceding for the land. We Understand from the verse that one person alone can made the difference in prayer. Let me put it the right way, You can make the difference in prayer
1 Peter 4:7 The end of all things is near. Therefore be alert and of sober mind so that you may pray.
1 Peter 4:8 Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.
1 Peter 4:9 Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling.
Brethren, when we walk with the Lord, In the light of His word, what a glory he sheds on our way!
Blessed people walking in His blessings enjoy His protection.
Who is a wise Christian?
We may have so many answers, but let’s look at this few:
(1) A wise Christian is one who puts the word of God into practice. He is a wise builder who builds his life on the rock (Matthew 7:24-27). No problem will bring him down.
There is a good and normal practice that is gradually dying among many Christians today, Evangelism or Witnessing. Let me ask you, when is the last time you invited someone to Church or preach the Gospel to someone?
When Andrew found Jesus Christ, it did not take long for him to invite his brother Peter. Our passage says, ” The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, “We have found the Messiah” (that is, the Christ).”
When you experience somethings in your life that are not supposed to take place, you should begin to suspect that there is a door opened that should be closed. From our main verse above, Jesus does not only open doors, He can also help you to shut some doors. Hallelujah! What are such doors that needs to be close?
Among the things that God can do in your life, He can open close doors.
God says, “I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it…” God can open for you strange doors- unbelievable doors. What are doors?
It is naturally difficult to keep our peace and joy when faced with problems. Usually, we record various negative reactions when people are confronted with problems. Some panic; others get confused; still others are gripped with fears and worries.
If a problem in your life has a beginning date, let me tell you that it also most have an expiring date. Peter was communicating to his readers that their suffering will last just a while and not forever. So, beloved, according to God, you are not supposed to suffer forever. Whatever problem you can be facing right now, there is a way out with God.
Every year, the Lord gives you 365 or 366 days to manage. That’s a total of 8,760 or 8784 hours. Time is like telephone airtime bonuses with expiration dateline. If you do not use it wisely on time, it waste away. Paul had an important advice to the Ephesians about time, “Redeem the time.”
This truth very much applies to the case of Christ and the Pharisees. Long before Christ came into the world, the Pharisees commanded high esteem among the Jews. They, indeed, craved the praise of men and positioned themselves as custodians of God’s holy standard.
