Glory to the Able-One

 

[Photo of a Scripture verse]


“To him who is able to keep you from falling and
to present you before his glorious presence
without fault and with great joy—to the only
od our Savior be glory, majesty, power and
authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord,
before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.”
—Jude 1:24-25

I wonder how often we consider the fact that, in every situation of life, God is supremely able. Nothing is daunting to Him. He has all power, all authority, all wisdom, all knowledge, all understanding—nothing confuses Him or causes Him to wonder if He can accomplish what is needed.

When you think about these qualities of God, they can easily boggle our minds. Apart from Him, there is no one in our experience that is able under every circumstance. No doubt, this prompted the Apostle Jude to write these words, found in Jude 1:24-25:

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

No matter what we may face in our lives, God is able. He is able to protect us. He is able to save us. He is able to deliver us. He is able to work out circumstances to our benefit. He is able.

As we begin a new day, let’s draw comfort from the fact that the very God who loves us with His never-failing love is also able in every circumstance of life.
