Being Guarded by the Power of God
I enjoyed the 1Peter 1:5 very much last week. It says, " Who are being guarded by the power of God through faith unto a salvation ready to be revealed at the last time". Thank you Lord that we are being guarded by the power of God through faith. The power of God is the means by which we are being guarded. Faith is the secondary means through which the power of God becomes effective in guarding us. Thus, the power of God is on God's side, and the faith is on our side. This indicates that we need to cooperate with the power of God. If we cooperate in this way, we shall be kept in the right position to enjoy our heavenly inheritance. The result of this guarding is salvation, which is full salvation, ultimate salvation.
