Spiritual Warfare: 'God Call Us all to Be Fishers of Men'

God's Power for Our Battles — Sunday, March 22, 2026

Jesus called out to them, ‘Come, follow me, and I will show you how to fish for people!’ And they left their nets at once and followed him.
— Matthew 4:19-20 NLT

Today's Prayer

Lord, forgive me for my lack of focus on evangelism. Forgive me for not sharing my faith. Forgive me for being silent about the good things You are doing in my life. Give me the courage to speak up and tell others of the amazing ways You have delivered me, blessed me, and carried me through tough times. Anoint my words as I speak them and nudge me when I need to speak up. Use my testimony to bring others out of the kingdom of darkness into Your Glorious Kingdom of light and life. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
