πŸ’₯ Peter says: When Jesus returns to gather the church be diligent to be found by HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.

 
2 Peter 3

10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.

Since no one knows when Jesus will return, it is important to live in these things of peace, without spot, and blameless daily, 24 hours a day, to be ready.

In Peace:  

We keep ourselves in peace, by praying when each concern or trouble comes, as Paul said to do.

Philippians 4:6-7  

6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Without spot:  

Sometimes we hear people of the world say things which become like a truck, running through a pot hold of water and mud, and splashing "spots" on our garment.

Often I pray over myself after such communications:

Psalm 51:10   Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

God restores our soul and cleanses us from all unrighteousness.

Living blameless:

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Forgive and you will be forgiven.
