Spiritual Warfare: 'God Is Light and Protection for All Who Trust'

God's Power for Our Battles — Monday, September 21, 2026

For the Lord God is a sun and shield; The Lord bestows grace and favor and honor; No good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly. O Lord of hosts, How blessed and greatly favored is the man who trusts in You [believing in You, relying on You, and committing himself to You with confident hope and expectation].
— Psalm 84:11-12 AMP

Today's Prayer

Lord, You are the source of life and light and protection. You are the source of grace and favor and all honor. You know how to take care of Your own, and You know who is trying to walk in faith. Remind me during my trials that You help and favor those who put their total trust in You with a whole heart. I pledge allegiance to the Lamb, and I will seek to follow His example. Help me in my walk. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
