2 Peter 1:2

"Do you want more and more of God’s kindness and peace? Then learn to know him better and better."

2 Peter 1:2 (TLB)


Do you want more peace? Just keep growing in the knowledge of God. For example:


How much He loves you. (Romans 8:31-39, "What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things? Who will bring a charge against God’s elect? God is the one who justifies; who is the one who condemns? Christ Jesus is He who died, yes, rather who was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us. Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Just as it is written. 'For Your sake we are being put to death all day long; we were considered as sheep to be slaughtered.' But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.")


How much He's caring for you. (1 Peter 5:7, "Casting all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you.")


How sovereign He is over all things. (Romans 11:36, "For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. Amen.")


How good He is toward you. (Matthew 7:11, "If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give what is good to those who ask Him!")
