The certainty of our hope has a remarkable effect on our lives. Hoping Christians cannot live carelessly, seeking self-indulgence and pleasure. Prepare your minds for action: literally, ‘Gird up the loins of your mind.’ The figure describes what a man wearing a long robe had to do if he were to go into action—gather the garment up between his legs and tuck it into his belt. Like Israel in Egypt, we have been called out of our slavery to begin a journey to the promised land. The Israelites were commanded to eat the Passover, their last meal in Egypt, ‘girded’ for travel. God calls his servants to be girded for mission; Elijah to run and Jeremiah to prophesy. Peter may have been thinking especially of the words of Jesus, ‘Let your loins be girded about, and your lamps burning; and be ye yourselves like men looking for their lord, when he shall return from the marriage feast; that, when he comes and knocks, they may straightway open unto him.’
