Shred Off Some Things and Desire the Word of God_08 1 Peter 2_1-3 Change doesn't happen just because we desire or want something better. Salvation requires faith in Christ. Nothing happens until we place our faith in Him for redemption. Sanctification doesn't just happen either. A daily discipline is necessary for a lifetime if we are going to mature into the image of Christ. Peter shares in the opening of chapter 2 the daily process of progress. Believers are to Shred off some things and Desire the Word of God.1. There are things that have to be Shredded off (v.1). I. We Must Depart Daily v.1II. We Must Dine Daily v.2-3God feeds us, nourishes and nurtures us. He reveals and feeds our souls, teaching us all about His grace, His wonderful salvation and promises to us. He teaches us how to live pure and clean lives; how to conquer the temptations of life; how to walk through the trials of life. He teaches us all about the great salvation and promises He has made. He teaches us all about Himself and the Lord Jesus Christ and the glorious hope we have of living with the Lord forever and ever.

As we Desire and yearn for His Word, He grows us more and more into His image.
