Thoughts on Today's Verse...

It is hard not to get discouraged when evil and wicked people get away with what is reprehensible — especially when they gloat about it. Christians on every continent have things that greatly trouble them about the evil perpetrated in their corner of the world. Corrupt power abuses those who belong to God's people and distorts the differences between good and evil. Let's join together, believers from around the world, and ask God to intervene in a clear, decisive way and bring these days of violence and wickedness to an end!

My Prayer...

Holy and righteous Father, please break the power of wickedness that reigns in our world and bring it to an end. Make it clear that the fall of evil's power is at the hand of the Lord Jesus. Lord Jesus, destroy every power that stands between God and us. Please, Lord, bring the glorious beginning of the eternal reign of your Kingdom. To your glory, Lord Jesus, and in your name, I pray. Amen.
