Let's lift up Smilee's request for complete healing from post-surgery. "By His wounds we are healed" (Isa. 53:5). Praying for strength, restored mobility, and wisdom for career success. Trusting God's provision and blessing. In Jesus' Name! 
Hello everyone! Let's lift up 
Let's lift up 
for protection from those conspiring against their health and emotions. "No weapon forged against you will prevail" (Isa. 54:17). Trusting God's shield and comfort. In Jesus' Name! Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.
—Jude 1:24-25 (KJV)
What a great cluster of truths Jude provides us! Our eyes are first drawn to what God can do for us — prevent us from falling and present us before his glorious presence in joyful perfection. On closer inspection, our hearts are also drawn to the description of our incredible God: the one who is able, the only God, our Savior, who lives in glory, majesty, and power. God is the one true authority who has communicated to us through Jesus, who existed before all ages, is alive now, and will always be. Our blessings as God's children are incredible, but they are because our God is beyond incredible; he is gloriously extraordinary, wonderfully gracious, and indescribably holy. Our words cannot do him justice. Our brightest insights cannot comprehend his glory. Yet despite his grandeur, God loves you and me in our finite and flawed mortality!
Awesome and Holy LORD, Most High God, thank you for being Almighty God, and also tenderly loving me and showing yourself to me in the life and ministry of Jesus. I look forward to standing in your presence, enjoying your perfection, and praising you in the presence of the glorious angels. Please accept my human praise until my words are unchained from their mortality and my imperfections are swallowed up in your glory. Amen.
