Spiritual Warfare: 'Warn Each Other Every Day'

God's Power for Our Battles — Sunday, July 27, 2025

You must warn each other every day, while it is still "today," so that none of you will be deceived by sin and hardened against God. For if we are faithful to the end, trusting God just as firmly as when we first believed, we will share in all that belongs to Christ.
— Hebrews 3:13-14 NLT

Today's Prayer

Lord, it’s hard to go to a fellow Christian and warn them about some sin they might be inadvertently involved in because I know I also have sin and deception in my own life. So I have a two-part prayer concerning this verse. One, please help me to recognize my own sin and immediately correct it. Then, two, help me to have the boldness and the kindness to properly bring an issue to my brother or sister in Christ if I need to. Then please give them a heart willing to receive it. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
