The verses around 1 Peter 5:7.
5Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
6Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
7Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
8Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
9Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
Verse explanation
One of the letter’s most-quoted verses: casting all one’s anxiety upon God, keeping nothing back, because He truly cares — it isn’t indifference disguised as faith, it’s an invitation to real relief.
From the 1 Peter 5 study in Bible in Stories.
