His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and virtue. 2 Peter 1:3, TLV
Yo! Peter! To coin an elegant Jersey response, “Yo, Peter! Preach it!” In this chapter, it is no holds barred for our outspoken brother. After Yeshua’s ascension, Peter tempered his reactive behavior for the most part. But, in this chapter, it has returned as boldness. Why?
I think it right to stir you up with a reminder, as long as I remain alive in this “tent” of a body—knowing that my death* is soon, as our Lord Yeshua the Messiah has made clear to me. (vss. 13-14) [Emphasis Mine]
Peter is stirring things up as a reminder of the important truths of walking this faith journey. He reigns back on diplomacy and speaks clearly about what is right and what is wrong. I really encourage reading this chapter because it is a fresh presentation of what we should be focusing on in this season on earth.
Whether we know our day of “laying aside our ‘tent’” 
or not, our focus should not change, really. Because our Father and His Son’s divine power has given us everything — that’s everything from Genesis to Revelation — we need to live a life filled with the knowledge and know-how to advance the Kingdom and be what He has called us to be.
Yo! Pretty bold stuff.
Until tomorrow, God bless and please continue to pray for the peace of Jerusalem and Israel.
