Today's Verse: 2 Thessalonians 3:3

Saturday, June 24, 2006

The Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen and protect you from the evil one.
— 2 Thessalonians 3:3

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

It's amazing to me how Satan knows our "silver bullet sins" — those sins that can especially wound and disable us from the work of Christ. Commit in your heart to ask God to protect you, your family, and one other person (you'll silently and daily support in prayer) from the attacks of the evil one.

My Prayer...

Mighty and Triumphant King, crush your enemies under your feet and liberate me and those I love from the oppressive attacks and the horrible consequences of sin. Not only forgive and cleanse me, but please guard my heart so that I might gain strength to serve you with passion and power. In Jesus' mighty name I pray. Amen.
