Spiritual Warfare: 'Unseen Beings Affect Our Physical World'

God's Power for Our Battles — Sunday, March 1, 2026

Let God’s curse fall on anyone, including us or even an angel from heaven, who preaches a different kind of Good News than the one we preached to you.
— Galatians 1:8 NLT

Today's Prayer

Lord, remind me that unseen forces are at work in our world teaching interpretations and falsehoods in Your Name. Grant me discernment to recognize lies in light of Your Holy Word when I’m faced with strange sounding doctrine. Help me to find a church with a group of believers who cherish Your truth and work to follow Your ways and teach Your truth. Don’t let me be deceived by a different sounding gospel - even when it appears to be the truth. Help me to always remember that the best lies are mixed with truth. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
