Hold on to his great and precious promises that by his promises, we might be partakers of his divine nature. Having escape the corruption that is in the world through lust. (II Peter 1:4) Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

God has given to us exceeding and precious promises. Abraham was given a promise, Sarah was given a promise, Rahab was given a promise, and they trusted in him who gave them the promise. We are given great and precious promises so that we may be partakers of his divine (godlike) nature.
We are the children of Promise, Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.
We were sealed with the Holy Spirit of Promise, In whom you also trusted, after that you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that you believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise
For the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.
We have received the promise of Eternal Inheritance, And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
We have received the promise of the Spirit through faith, That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
We are heirs according to the promise, And if you be Christ's, then are you Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
We have a promise of a new heaven and earth, Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwells righteousness.
We have a promise of eternal life, And this is the promise that he has promised us, even eternal life.
As Abraham, believed God, let us look to his example, Abraham believed God, Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, "So shall your seed be." And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara's womb: He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.
Are you fully persuaded that what God has promised he is able to perform? Let us not stagger at the promises of God through unbelief, but let us be strong in faith giving glory to God....Amen, I love you in Jesus' name
