This Article is part of the Series: Arsenal on Thought Life – Home Page
You can begin building your own Arsenal on Thought Life with any “week” of your choice in this series.
But first, be sure you have previously read and understand:
Why You Need Arsenals to Make It / How to Build One
If so, then here’s this week’s weapon!
Thought Life Week 8: You Don’t Have to Stumble
Jude 1:24
AMPL:
24 Now to Him Who is able to keep you without stumbling or slipping or falling, and to present [you] unblemished (blameless and faultless) before the presence of His glory…
The Message (MSG):
24 And now to him who can keep you on your feet, standing tall in his bright presence, fresh and celebrating—to our one God, our only Savior, through Jesus Christ…
CEV:
24 Offer praise to God our Savior because of our Lord Jesus Christ! Only God can keep you from falling and make you pure and joyful in his glorious presence.

My Take:
“I just can’t help it”, you say?
FALSE.
LIES.
We’re growing up in God.
We don’t stay toddlers for ever. Sure. We’ve all stumbled. We’ve all missed it.
Yet, God HAS made a way for us to live pure before Him.
We don’t have to continually stumble and fall spiritually.

He’s the only One that makes us pure.
He’s the One Who can keep you on your feet – – without stumbling, slipping or falling, all the time.
Have you asked for His help?
Is there a brother or mentor that should be standing with you?
Two is better than one.
We can stumble less.
Ask for help when you do stumble.
Then ask someone to lock arms with you — and walk forward.

Here’s a Brief Reminder on How to Build and Use This Arsenal over time.
- Choose just one passage per week or month (select your weapon)
- Add it to your arsenal ** (value your weapon)
- Meditate on the passage – get it into your heart (know your weapon)
- Speak it out loud daily (get familiar & comfortable using your weapon)
- Return – HERE – next week until you’ve fully developed your own Arsenal on Thought Life.
** When adding to your Arsenal, be consistent with your storage system.
Build it on your phone, laptop, or tablet.
Utilize Evernote, OneNote, your Journal, or even 3×5 cards.
Use what works for you.
