1 Peter 1:13 Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

It is My joy to be called your God, and it is to My honor that you are called My people, for as you obey Me and show the world a changed and transformed way of thinking and living, they know that you could not make this change in yourself.
Though the whole world is Mine and all the people therein, you are My called-out ones, whom I have set apart and in whom I have shown a difference.
You are indeed Mine if you endure the chastening of the Father. Chastening and discipline are needed to drive out the folly that is bound up in your heart, just as the impurities found in silver and gold are purged in the furnace.
Do not fret, My precious one, but be patient and know that fire is not the destination of gold and silver which have great value in use and vast enjoyment in beauty.
I have made you delicately, My choice one, and I will handle you tenderly. Look to Me in all you face, and follow My guidance in all you do, for I will lead you in ways you have never gone before.
Though others choose to stay in their known and comfortable places, I will lead each who are Mine, each who have a heart to follow Me, into the uncharted wilderness of new places and new ways and new blessings. There, you will receive the promises which have not yet been entered into, though I gave them in My Word from the beginning.
Just as Peter learned not to call “unclean” that which God has made clean, make room in your heart and mind for Me to do new things, peculiar things, that you have not known before.
May you look to the Lord and His strength, and seek His face always so that your heart will rejoice and glory in His holy name. Psalm 105
May you give thanks to the Lord and call on His name, making known among the nations what He has done, singing to Him, praising Him, and telling of all His wonderful acts. Psalm 105
May you remember all the Lord has done, His wonders, His miracles, and His judgments, for He is the Lord our God, ruler over all the earth. Psalm 105
May you be an honest and faithful witness who delivers souls and saves lives, unlike the deceitful witness who is a treacherous traitor. Proverbs 14:25
