Wholeness was our state in the Garden but then the enemy of God came along and, through disobedience, robbed us all of that God-given state. The spiritual battle for us every day is choosing God over that same enemy, just as everyone in the Bible had to deal with as well.Listen to 1 Peter 5:6-11 …So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor. Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you. Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith. Remember that your family of believers all over the world is going through the same kind of suffering you are. In his kindness God called you to share in his eternal glory by means of Christ Jesus. So after you have suffered a little while, he will restore, support, and strengthen you, and he will place you on a firm foundation. All power to him forever! Amen. (NLT) Listen for two things: the commands and the promises.Did you catch them? Let’s review, all under the concept of wholeness and holiness.The command? Humble yourself. … The promise? God will lift you up in His time.The command: Give your worries to God. … The promise: God will care for you.The command: Stand firm against the enemy. … The promise: God’s calling will bring you into His eternal glory.The command: Endure suffering. … The promise: God will restore, support, and strengthen you.Wholeness is found on the firm foundation only God can provide.Let’s pray together: “Heavenly Father, thank You for offering wholeness through holiness. Thank You for Your commands for my obedience and Your promises giving me hope. As above, so below.”
