Since trouble comes to every Christian, we all should be prepared to face it. Peter closes this letter to Christians under pressure with three commands. The commands speak to the way we view trials, our awareness in them and the means to endure. Listen to Dr. John explain Peter's commands about humility, alertness and standing fast. Listen for God's promise to all believers under pressure. Under Pressure - Instructions For God's People: Whether it is overt persecution or subtle pressures, Christians have always faced trials in this world, and our culture is no exception. The book of 1 Peter offers us encouragement by reminding us of our identity as chosen sojourners and commending us to continue to do good.
