When the Rooster Crows - Part Two

Although Peter declared that he would lay down his life for Jesus, when he was questioned by a servant girl, he denied Him three times. Rather than view Peter’s actions with judgment, Alistair Begg explains that Peter’s failure serves as a warning to all believers. The seeds of every sin are latent in our own hearts-and, like Peter, if we trust in our own strength, we will fall. The life of faith cannot be built on our promises to Christ but must be fixed on the promises He makes to us.
Scripture: John 13:36-38

I have always had a fondness for Peter, I can relate to him. I also have been guilty of enthusiastic banter in my spiritual infancy and appreciate the brothers and sisters who tolerated me and prayed for me to study approved unto God, and I am almost certain they prayed for the LORD to place a guard over my mouth. 🙏

Luke 22:31-32 English Standard Version Jesus Foretells Peter's Denial 31 “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan demanded to have you,[a] that he might sift you like wheat, 32 but I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned again, strengthen your brothers.” 🙏♥️🙏

"Coldness of heart, moral carelessness and a spirit of self-reliance, when those things combine, we have no adequate conception of how far we might fall. Think about it. How often have I sat by a fire with a bunch of people who clearly have no interest in Jesus, the Bible or anything about it at all and I just denied Him by my silence....." "We know that You keep us. Please keep us kept. Help us to look away from ourselves and our promises to You, as if somehow or another the more affirmations that we make, the stronger we are. No, Peter made great affirmations and was no good. No, help us to rest entirely in your promises, to be able to say that in Christ alone my hope is found. He is my light, my strength, my song, cornerstone, solid ground."
