Spiritual Warfare: 'God Rescues & Saves — No Other Can'

God's Power for Our Battles — Friday, January 10, 2025

Lord my God, I trust in you for protection. Save me and rescue me from those who are chasing me. Otherwise, like a lion, they will tear me apart. They will rip me to pieces, and no one can save me.
— Psalm 7:1-2 NCV

Today's Prayer

Lord, You are the source of my protection. You deliver, You rescue, and You shield me. You save me from those who are trying to persecute and attack me. Without Your Help, Lord, I am doomed. Help me through today, and I’ll call on Your name again tomorrow. Without You, Lord, they will tear me to pieces; I don’t stand a chance. Deliver me again, and I will praise Your name and tell others of Your greatness. My only hope is You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
