I Peter 5- Be on the Alert

 6  Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time,
 7  casting all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you.
 8   Be of sober spirit, be on the alert your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
 9  But resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished by your brethren who are in the world.
 10 After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen and establish you.

What a great, succinct way to end a book packed with incredible truth. 

Based on all the previous truths I have shared, Peter says, be humble, trust God, be always prepared for battle, have compassion for your fellow believers because God is performing incredible things in your life!

Thank you Lord for working in me, through me and with me.
