Spiritual Warfare: 'Satan Perverts Truth and All That Is Good'

God's Power for Our Battles — Wednesday, January 22, 2025

Then he said, "You son of the devil, full of every sort of deceit and fraud, and enemy of all that is good! Will you never stop perverting the true ways of the Lord?"
— Acts 13:10 NLT

Today's Prayer

Lord, please open my eyes to Your wonderful truth. I want to honor Your word and all Your commands. Help me always to be able to discern how Satan is constantly at work perverting the truth all around me each and every day. Deliver me from deceit and fraud. Give me persistence and endurance in my battle for goodness. Remind me that Satan is the enemy of all that is good, and help me to do what’s wholesome and right in all my decisions. In Jesus Name, Amen.
