Spiritual Warfare: 'God's People Know His Voice'

God's Power for Our Battles — Monday, August 18, 2025

But you do not believe Me [so you do not trust and follow Me] because you are not My sheep. The sheep that are My own hear My voice and listen to Me; I know them, and they follow Me.
— John 10:26-27 AMP

Today's Prayer

Lord, help me to be a better child of faith. Help me to truly trust You and know the exact sound of Your voice. The world is full of voices that call me to go after position, power, riches, pleasures, or charismatic people. Please help me turn the volume down on the voices that come at me from every side, Lord, and know the one true voice - Your voice. Help me to yield my will to Yours. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
