2 Peter 1:10
10 Because of this, brethren, be all the more solicitous and eager to make sure (to ratify, to strengthen, to make steadfast) your calling and election; for if you do this, you will never stumble or fall.

Jonah accepted Christ and started serving God when he was in secondary school. By the time he got to his senior year he was appointed as the president of the Christian fellowship. When Jonah got to the university, he was also very involved with the fellowship and was appointed as the bible study secretary.
Seven years later, Jonah was now married with a daughter but his wife was threatening to divorce him because she had found out about his girlfriend, and even heard he was going out with his secretary in the office too. How did such a committed Christian who served the lord on campus stumble so far?
Our bible text today reveals that the the key to not stumbling into sin is constantly making effort to strengthen your calling or walk with God. Whenever something stops growing, it begins to die. The preceding verses to today's bible text talks about constantly adding to your faith (see 2 Pet 1:5-9).
Go into today with the renewed assurance that God has made the grace available for you to continue to strengthen and edify your spirit man. Remember that in God’s kingdom, growth never ends. Reach out for new materials: sermons, books, bible studies to help you grow.
Prayer: Thank you father for your word that is light to my feet. I pray you help me never lag in zeal and always build up myself on my most holy faith, In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
