Spiritual Warfare: 'Humble Prayer and Seeking'

God's Power for Our Battles — Friday, April 25, 2025

Then if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves, if they will pray and seek me and stop their evil ways, I will hear them from heaven. I will forgive their sin, and I will heal their land.

Today's Prayer

Lord, in many ways, we have turned away from You. We dabble in evil and go to church on Sunday and expect You to bless our land and our families. Forgive us, Lord, for falling into deception and being halfhearted and lukewarm in our commitment to You. We repent of that, Lord, and ask You to give us the strength to stay on the path of righteousness. We seek Your face and Your ways, Lord, and we ask You to heal our land. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
