Spiritual Warfare: 'The Gospel Saves through Faith'

God's Power for Our Battles — Saturday, July 5, 2025

I have complete confidence in the gospel; it is God's power to save all who believe, first the Jews and also the Gentiles. For the gospel reveals how God puts people right with himself: it is through faith from beginning to end. As the scripture says, "The person who is put right with God through faith shall live."
— Romans 1:16-17 GNT

Today's Prayer

Lord, thank You for the gospel message of salvation that is available through faith in Jesus Christ as Messiah and Your Son. Thank You for making us right with You through Jesus. Thank You for accepting us into relationship with You through His sacrifice on the cross and our belief in Him. Give us the courage to share that message with the lost people right around me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
