Genesis 19 illustrates God's urgent call for forward movement, emphasizing that His deliverance is a rescue story rather than a judgment. Lot’s initial hesitation reveals misplaced priorities, but through mercy and grace, he is urged to escape. The passage warns against looking back, urging obedience and trust in God’s direction for true deliverance.

In 1 Peter 5, the apostle Peter advises suffering believers on enduring hardships through humility, faithful leadership, and spiritual alertness. He emphasizes that God sustains His people, encouraging submission to one another and urging resistance against spiritual opposition. Peter ultimately reassures believers of God’s grace and promises them restoration and strength.
