Jude 1:24-25 NKJV ~ “Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.”
There are moments in the Christian walk where you feel like you’re barely making it. You’ve stumbled too many times to count. You’ve questioned your calling, your worth, and even your progress. But Jude’s doxology reminds us of something powerful and personal, God is not just watching you walk, He’s keeping you from falling. He’s not pacing in heaven, anxious about your next step, No, He is the One actively upholding you, strengthening your feet, and guiding your steps.
This rich declaration begins with “Now to Him who is able…” These words are a steady anchor in a world that constantly feels unstable. People may fail you. Emotions may betray you. But God’s ability is never compromised by your weakness. His keeping power is greater than your breaking point. What a comfort it is to know that the God who saves you is also the God who sustains you.
And more than just keeping you from falling, the Lord promises to present you faultless before His Glory. Not just barely making it in. Not bruised, broken, or barely breathing. But faultless, washed, restored, and clothed in righteousness. This presentation isn’t reluctant or begrudging. It’s not a ceremony of shame, but a celebration of exceeding joy. God isn’t just tolerating you, He’s rejoicing over you. He delights in completing what He started in you.
The text also declares that He alone is wise. Sometimes, we feel we know better than God. We question His timing, His decisions, and the process He’s allowing. But Jude reminds us, that there is only One who carries perfect wisdom. There is only One who sees the end from the beginning. And in that wisdom, He is choosing to keep you, cover you, and carry you all the way through.
This doxology is a crescendo of praise, glory, majesty, dominion, and power. These are not just poetic words, they are declarations of His total Reign. Every time life makes you feel like you’re slipping, remember, you are not the one holding yourself up. His dominion reaches even into your doubt. His power reaches into your pain. His Glory is revealed in your weakness, and His majesty is shown in your redemption story.
Whether you’re on the mountain or in the valley, you are being kept. You are being presented. You are being rejoiced over. Not because of your ability to walk perfectly, but because of His ability to hold you faultlessly. So worship today not from a place of fear or failure, but from the confidence that you are in the hands of the only wise God, whose grip never slips.
As you meditate on Jude 1:24–25, take a moment to consider the places in your life where you’ve felt like you were barely holding on. What were the moments you thought you’d fall, but somehow, you didn’t? That was God keeping you. Reflect on the beauty of being kept not by your own strength, but by His sustaining Grace. Ask yourself, “What would it look like if I lived from the place of being faultless, not flawed?” The Lord is not waiting to shame you, He’s preparing to present you with joy.
Let that truth shift your identity and silence the inner critic. This is not about perfection, it’s about the perfection of Christ covering you. You are not just being carried; you are being celebrated. Let your soul settle in that truth, and let your worship rise from that revelation.
Let’s Pray:
Father, I come before You today humbled by the depth of Your keeping power. You are the One who holds me when I feel like I’m slipping. You are the One who steadies my steps when I walk through unstable places. Thank You for not leaving me to figure life out alone. Thank You for being the anchor in my uncertainty and the guardrail when I stray. When I didn’t have the strength to stand, You carried me. When I was weary and worn, You whispered grace over me. When my heart grew faint and fragile, You proved Yourself faithful once again. Father, I thank You that Your power is not conditional. You don’t keep me because I deserve it, You keep me because You are good. I am not sustained by my willpower, but by Your mercy. You’ve proven over and over again that You are able, able to lift me, correct me, forgive me, restore me, and guide me into the place You’ve prepared. When people gave up on me, You didn’t. When I almost gave up on myself, You still called me worthy. You still saw the purpose You placed inside of me. And for that, I will praise You forever. Father, I’m amazed, that You not only keep me, but You present me also, not broken, not incomplete, not shame covered or condemned but faultless and covered in Your righteousness. Wrapped in grace. Restored by the Blood of Jesus. I praise You because the version of me that You’re presenting to the Father is not defined by my failures. It’s defined by Your forgiveness. You rejoice over me. You celebrate me as Your beloved. You welcome me into Your glory, not with reluctance, but with exceeding joy. What an unspeakable gift. God, You alone are wise. Your plan is perfect. Even when I don’t understand the path, I choose to trust Your heart. You see the end from the beginning. You know how to work all things together for my good. Help me not to lean on my own understanding. Help me to walk in step with Your Spirit, even when the way is unclear. Keep me teachable. Keep me surrendered. Keep me in the center of Your will. Father, I give You all glory today. Not just for the victories, but even for the moments You kept me when I should’ve lost everything. I give You all majesty, because no one else is worthy to sit on the throne of my heart. I give You dominion over my mind, my soul, my past, and my future. I give You power over every weakness, every wandering thought, and every wound I’m still healing from. Father, be exalted in my life. Be glorified in my story. Be magnified in the way I love, live, serve, and follow You. Keep me from falling, Lord, but even if I stumble, remind me that You still call me beloved. Present me faultless, not because I’m flawless, but because I’m forgiven. To You, my Savior, who alone is wise, be all glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. And may my life be a living amen. In the Matchless Name of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen!
Blessings…
Love, Dr. Jean…
