Heavenly Father, thank You for the warning against falling into apostasy and of the serious consequences that befall all apostates. Thank You that You give every man and woman an opportunity to know You, for the heavens declare Your glory, the earth sings forth Your praise, our inner conscience reminds us to eschew evil and choose the good, and Your Word guides us into all truth.

Lord, my desire is to honour Your name and by Your grace may I run the race that is set before me, looking to Jesus, day by day, AMEN.

Heavenly Father, thank You for the serious warning of apostasy and heretical teaching that is so pervasive today. Help me to know the truth and recognise any false teachers and teachings that have crept into the flock, unnoticed.

In Jesus' name, AMEN.

Praying through Jude 1:12

Heavenly Father, thank You for the Word of God and the truth that it contains. Thank You for holy men of God who were inspired by the Holy Spirit to pen the Scriptures that teach us the truth of Your Word. Give me a desire to know Your Word and discernment to recognise false teachings and apostate teachers. Give me an urgent desire to know Your Word more and to contend for the truth that was once given to the saints. Knowing the terrible damage they can do to believers, I pray that false teachers may be identified, exposed, and removed, both in my local Church and throughout the world. Revive Your people with the same urgency that flooded Jude's heart when he exhorted us to reject false teachers through an ever deepening knowledge of Your Word. This I pray in Jesus' name, AMEN.

Praying through Jude 1:19

Heavenly Father, thank You for the many warnings of apostasy creeping into the churches of our land and the toxic nature of worldly minded, apostate teachers who slither into churches and slowly infect other believers. As I look around and see people who find fault, grumble, boast, flatter, and follow their own evil desires, help me to remember that You told us it would be this way just before Jesus returns. I pray that You would protect me and my loved ones from stumbling and from being polluted by their influence. Thank You that by Your grace we can be kept from stumbling, and protect us from being polluted by their influence. This I ask in Jesus' name, AMEN.
