Prayer Verse

Our prayer verse for this week is Jude 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.

In these verses God is recognized for His glory, majesty, power and authority. These verses are also referred to as doxology or praise. Recognition of and understanding of the attributes of God should lead us to worship (which is a reason we need to be in the Word). If not, then we probably don't really see God for who He is. To know God is to worship Him! "Praise him for his acts of power; praise him for his surpassing greatness." [Psalm 150:2]
