TODAY'S WORD FROM THE LORD


Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. (Jude 24-25).


How is God able to do such great things in our lives? Once we receive His free gift of salvation through faith alone, He enters our lives in the power of the Holy Spirit to sustain, bless and keep us in His Grace! As Jesus told His disciples, "Do not be afraid, little flock, it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom." Today, and everyday, let us confidently turn our eyes upon Jesus.


Father, there are no words to adequately praise you for salvation, full and free, and for all the blessings we enjoy daily as your children. Help us to walk each step today in your strength and under the banner of your heavenly benediction. Through Christ our Lord, Amen.
