Spiritual Warfare: 'Find Strength in God to Overcome!'

God's Power for Our Battles — Friday, September 25, 2026

In your strength I can crush an army; with my God I can scale any wall. God’s way is perfect. All the Lord’s promises prove true. He is a shield for all who look to him for protection. For who is God except the Lord? Who but our God is a solid rock?
— Psalm 18:29-31 NLT

Today's Prayer

Lord, my strength is gone. My power is useless. My abilities can never be enough. But You, Lord, are able; You are enough; You are a shield of mighty protection. I have no confidence in my own talents or abilities, Lord, but I have full confidence in Yours. I call to You for the surrounding protection I need. You alone are Lord and King, and with You on my side, Lord, all other enemies don’t stand a chance. Be with me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
