Day Thirty: That he would keep him from falling
Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory 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 1:24-25
If your son is in Christ this prayer will be answered. The glorious, majestic God that reigns in all authority for all of eternity has determined to save and secure your son for Himself. He will keep him from stumbling, and he will present him blameless before His presence. So let us celebrate God’s provision for our sons. He will do this in “great joy”. May we respond to this truth with great joy as well. Brothers, as we strive to be faithful to God in the way that we shepherd our sons, let us also remember that One far more mighty than us is determined to keep him from falling.
Lord, thank you that you hold my son up. You have purposed to keep him from stumbling and one day you will present him holy and blameless before you. Help me to see him today in light of who he will be tomorrow. Help me to rest in your care for him—knowing that You will keep him. All the glory and honor for my son’s salvation is yours and yours alone. Thank you, Father, for your passion for my son’s heart. Amen.
