The verse sets what ends over against what lasts

Wait for life to settle before taking his words seriously

Treat his words as one opinion among many

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I admit that I have sinned and tried to build my life on things that do not last. I believe you died for my sins and rose again. I turn from my sin and trust you as my Lord. Let your truth hold me when everything else passes away. Come into my life and lead me. Amen.

Come to the Words That Last

Lord, awaken your Church to honor your words above every passing voice. Deliver us from carelessness, distraction, and compromise, and make us a people shaped by what will never fail. Let our faith, our preaching, and our obedience rest on your enduring truth, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Renew Your Church in Your Word

Thank you, Lord, that the world is not the final measure of truth. Thank you that your words remain steady when everything else shifts. Teach us to receive them with gratitude and confidence.

Thank You for a Sure Word

Start by naming one situation that feels unstable. Then ask God to show you which of Jesus' words should guide your next step, and pray for courage to obey it.

Pray for a Steadier Foundation

Pray for people facing loss, uncertainty, or rapid change. Ask that Jesus' words would be their anchor, their comfort, and their hope.

For Those Living Through Change

Father, I confess that I often give more weight to temporary things than to the words of your Son. Train my heart to trust what Jesus says, to remember it, and to obey it when the world around me is changing, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Teach Me to Treasure What Lasts
