Spiritual Warfare: 'Help Me Love the Truth'

God's Power for Our Battles — Saturday, January 11, 2025

When the wicked one appears, Satan will pretend to work all kinds of miracles, wonders, and signs. Lost people will be fooled by his evil deeds. They could be saved, but they will refuse to love the truth and accept it.
— 2 Thessalonians 2:9-10

Today's Prayer

Lord, when these powerful, counterfeit signs and wonders happen, help me to see them for what they are: evil deceptions designed to fool those who don’t love the truth of Your word. Help me to accept and love the truth, so I can be saved from this evil day, and please help my children and loved ones to love the truth, too. Grant me the faith I need to be delivered from the evil of the times that will result in an eternity without You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
