Spiritual Warfare: 'God Protects from all Attack & Destruction'

God's Power for Our Battles — Thursday, January 16, 2025

You need not fear the terror of the night, or the arrow that flies by day, or the plague that spreads in the darkness, or the destruction that devastates at noon.
— Psalm 91:5-6 LEB

Today's Prayer

Lord, forgive me for letting fear and worry dominate my thoughts and dreams. With You on my side, I reject the fears and terrors that attack my mind day and night. Plagues and diseases hold no power over Your divine protection. Devastating loss and being overcome even by death means nothing in light of the salvation You have provided through Jesus and the promises of the resurrection for the righteous. Your power overcomes all, and I’m thankful to be included in Your eternal family. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
