Spiritual Warfare: 'Know Plus Obey Equals Success and Confidence'

God's Power for Our Battles — Thursday, October 2, 2025

Study this Book of Instruction continually. Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do. This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.
— Joshua 1:8-9 NLT

Today's Prayer

Lord, thank You for providing Your Holy Word. Help me to stop neglecting it and start focusing on it. Help me to think about it, learn from it, internalize it, and be obedient to it. Remind me that this brings success and prosperity and dispels all fear and discouragement. Thank You for being with me all the way through. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
