YWC, Pinklight 🙂

God ministered to me very deeply when HE unveiled to me in HIS Word that HE is the overarching KEEPER:

1 Peter 1:5 Who are kept {5432} by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
Click Here to read 1 Peter 1:5 in several parallel versions.
1 Peter 1:5 – kept/guarded/protected phrouros
5432 phroureo- {froo-reh’-o} AV – keep
from a compound of 4253 and 3708 horao {hor-ah’-o}
describes God and means the “oureo”(KEEPER) “before; above”

So, we have Adam assigned to “keep” (protect, guard, watch) the garden; we have wives assigned to “keep” (protect, guard, watch) their households; we have GOD who keeps, guards, protects us by HIS power “unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time”.
