Be Holy For I Am Holy

                                                  Be holy, for I am holy - 1 Peter 1:16.

                  Our God is holy. Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; The whole earth is full of His glory! - Isaiah 6:3. There is no one holy like the Lord; there is no one besides you; there is no Rock like our God - 1 Samuel 2:2. Who shall not fear You, O Lord, and glorify Your name? For You alone are holy - Revelation 15:4. God’s will for us is to be holy. For it is God’s will that you should be holy - 1 Thessalonians 4:3.

                 God had chosen us, saved us and called us to lead a holy life according to His own purpose and grace. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight - Ephesians 1:4. He has saved us and called us to a holy life - not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time - 2 Timothy 1:9. For God did not call us to uncleanness, but in holiness. 1 Thessalonians 4:7.

           Let us be holy as our Holy God. Put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness - Ephesians 4:24. Without holiness, we can never see God.  Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord - Hebrews 12:14. Let us worship our Holy God with holiness. But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light - 1 Peter 2:9.                                                      

PRAYER: Dear Lord, You are the Holy God. Help us to be holy as You are holy. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
