17 But you, my dear friends, must remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ said. 18 They told you that in the last times there would be scoffers whose purpose in life is to satisfy their ungodly desires. 19 These people are the ones who are creating divisions among you. They follow their natural instincts because they do not have God’s Spirit in them.
20 But you, dear friends, must build each other up in your most holy faith, pray in the power of the Holy Spirit, 21 and await the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, who will bring you eternal life. In this way, you will keep yourselves safe in God’s love.
24 Now all glory to God, who is able to keep you from falling away and will bring you with great joy into his glorious presence without a single fault. - Jude
Message:
Remaining sober and humble especially in faith.
Observation/Promise:
If we depend on GOD, He will keep us from falling. He has promised us to keep us blameless but we have to remain confident in Him, not relying on our efforts and works to save us. When we let GOD lead us, His Spirit will take over our lives and lead us into all truth, giving us success in all that we do. HE will keep us, when we remain in Him.
Application/Command:
Do not follow your natural instincts or be led by your desires instead let the Spirit of GOD lead you, bring to GOD everything in prayer. Built each other up in your faith with fellow believers and pray in the Spirit for there are things that we do not we should pray for but only GOD knows and His Spirit will lead us into prayers. Do not be confident of your own efforts into faith but cling to GOD and wait for HIM. In waiting is our strength and it will keep us safe in GOD's love.
