Share His Nature
by Joyce Meyer

And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world's corruption caused by human desires.
—2 Peter 1:4 NLT

The devil tries to tell us we can't be like God—we can't be merciful and gracious; we can't have joy; we can't be slow to anger and quick to forgive. But the Bible says God has shared His divine nature with us; it is in us, thus we can develop it and it can come out of us.

Don't listen to the devil's lies. Believe instead the promises of God: you can be like God in your nature; you can have unspeakable joy; you can be merciful, never again holding a grudge. Fill your thoughts and words with God's promises. Apply the truth of His Word to your daily life, and you will finish your course with joy (see Acts 20:24)!

Power Thought: I don't have to live as the world lives; I can live as God would because His divine nature is in me.

From the book the book Power Thoughts Devotional by Joyce Meyer.
