Spiritual Warfare: 'Selfless Devotion to God Is a Godly Weapon'

God's Power for Our Battles — Thursday, November 26, 2026

And they have defeated him by the blood of the Lamb and by their testimony. And they did not love their lives so much that they were afraid to die.
— Revelation 12:11 NLT

Today's Prayer

Lord, I know You are looking for “Navy Seal Christians,” those more interested in the mission than whether or not we live or die. Forgive us for being in love with life, Lord, and remind us that our TRUE lives begin at our physical death. Help us to live and act each day in light of our eternal destiny. Open our eyes to how temporary this earthly life truly is, Lord, and help us to focus on YOUR agenda and Your commands to win souls for the kingdom before it’s eternally too late for them. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
