Confirm Your Calling and Election

3 His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him ^dwho called us to¹ his own glory and ^eexcellence,²

19 And we have the prophetic word more fully confirmed, to which you will do well to pay attention as to a ^dlamp ^eshining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the ^fmorning star ^grises in your hearts, 20 knowing this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture comes from someone’s own interpretation. 21 ^hFor no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but ⁱmen spoke from God as they were carried along ^jby the Holy Spirit.
