Keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.

²² Be merciful to those who doubt; ²³ save others by snatching them from the fire; to others show mercy, mixed with fear—hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh.^[a]

²⁴ To him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy— ²⁵ to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.

Jude 1: 21-25 (NIV)

Prayer for yourselves and those on your prayer list…

• O Lord our God, full of grace, mercy and truth, keep us in your love
• Fill us with joy and peace as we await the gift of eternal life through the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ
• May we have compassion toward those who doubt your word
• May we work with heavenly agencies to bless and save those who walk in the flesh and not by the Spirit
• Keep us from stumbling
• We rejoice that you will present us faultless before the presence of your glory with exceeding joy
• For yours is the glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen
