1Pet. 1:13-16 Looking forward to the grace that will come to us when Jesus comes back
Our goal is to meet Jesus. We don't think like that today, we don't pray like that. Our mindset should be that of meeting Jesus, of being in perfect relationship with each other and with our Father. "Therefore" - 1Pet 1:3-5 remember your salvation, remember the resurrection of Jesus and our salvation. God's strength and power is shielding us (surrounding us like a military formation) until Jesus comes back.
Keep your mind on Jesus. v.13 "alert and fully sober" - be ready to fight, realizing that Satan wants to destroy us. 1Pet. 5:8-9.
Be holy. 1Pet 1:14-16 be obedient and holy. Titus 2:11-14 Say "no" to ungodliness and worldly passions, live self-controlled, upright and godly lives. We are a new creation, and should live like it, and strive to look more like God every day.
