Exiles: 1 Peter 3:7 | Week 12 - James Sharp
Manage episode 438864805 series 3030156
The Apostle Peter wrote the letter we call 1 Peter while persecution against Christians was simmering in and around ancient Rome. He wanted his readers to be prepared for hard things to come, and he sought to prepare them by reminding them of their identity as the chosen people of God, living as exiles in a world of suffering.
We continue our series in 1 Peter looking at 1 Peter 3:7.
Be self-controlled and sober-minded for the sake of your prayers. 1 Peter 4:7
For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayer. 1 Peter 3:12
Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way…so that your prayers may not be hindered. 1 Peter 3:7
“So concerned is God that Christian husbands live in an understanding and loving way with their wives, that he ‘interrupts’ his relationship with them when they are not doing so. No Christian husband should presume to think that any spiritual good will be accomplished by his life without an effective ministry of prayer. And no husband may expect an effective prayer life unless he lives with his wife ‘in an understanding way, bestowing honor’ on her.” - Wayne Grudem
