Why use up valuable time each day reading your Bible and praying? The apostle Peter gives us a great answer in 2 Peter 1:3, "As we know Jesus better, his divine power gives us everything we need for living a godly life." This verse teaches that as we spend time with God through Bible reading and prayer, God's divine power comes into our lives, and this is the power we need for living a godly life. This verse helps me know what to do when I'm losing the battle against temptation. Spend more time getting to know Jesus better! The more time I spend in prayer and Bible reading the more power is released to help me live a godly life. Temptation can be resisted, but it comes at a price. The price is taking time each day to know Jesus better. James 4:6 teaches that God gives us more and more strength to stand against evil desires. And that strength comes as spend time getting to know Jesus through Bible reading and prayer.
