“By means of these He has bestowed on us His precious and exceedingly great promises..” Let’ stop here for a minute, who gave us the precious and exceedingly great promises? Whose promises are they? They are God’s promises and they are precious and they aren’t just great, they are exceedingly great! Now back to the verse, “so that through them you may escape [by flight] from moral decay (rottenness and corruption) that is in this world because of covetousness (lust and greed), and becoming sharers (partakers) of the Divine nature.” 2 Peter 1:4 Amplified
Man that is awesome stuff! We have been given God’s promises, so that we may share and be partakers of His nature. And because of God we have escaped the corruption that is in this world! God’s love is precious and it is exceedingly great, and we are now partakers of it and God’s love now abides within us! We have escaped the corruption of this world through it, as it covers up and destroys a multitude of sins!
We can’t escape lust and greed through our own efforts, with our own faith, or our own anything. We escape corruption because of God, through the power of His Anointing, which is Christ, and we have escaped corruption because it is God’s nature dwelling within us! These are God’s great and precious promises to us! We are victorious because of God, and God is victorious 100% of the time! There is now no weapon formed against us that can prosper because there is no weapon that can prosper against God. And through Christ we are now more than conquerors, just as God is more than a conqueror! As He is, so are we in this world!
