“But these men revile the things which they do not understand; and the things which they know by instinct, like unreasoning animals, by these things they are destroyed” (Jude 1:10).

This generation accuses.  “You know nothing.”  Think about the arrogance of one who makes such a statement.  They do not know you or what you do or do not know.  Do not reason with such, for they are unable to reason.  Come into the presence of the Lord and let Him teach you how to reason.  Do not be one bound for destruction, but one who walks with the Lord and is bound for eternity with Him.

Lord, I do not need to know all things, but I do know what You have shown me.  Guide me in the upward call of Your grace so that I may walk humbly with You.  There are those around me who revile Your word and the goodness of Your grace.  Give me deaf ears to their hatred.  The world acts like unreasoning animals.  Help me to reason so that I begin to act like You.  Lead me as I need to be led.

Thank You, Lord Jesus, for the goodness and mercy of Your presence and purpose in my life.  Lead me this day to walk humbly with You.  Although the world around me may be crazy, guide me so that I look to you for all things.  You alone have given the words of eternal life.  Open my ears to listen to You alone as I journey through this age.  Guide me, Lord Jesus, in the way of salvation.  Amen.
