Spiritual Warfare: 'Resist Satan By Wearing God’s Armor'

God's Power for Our Battles — Friday, January 23, 2026

Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm.
— Ephesians 6:13 NLT

Today's Prayer

Lord, when the day is done, I want to be still standing strong. Help me to hold all of the territory You put me in charge of. Give me the strength to endure. Help me to resist and stay strong as I face trials and difficulties. Remind me that the armor You have provided will enable me to resist the enemy during the times of evil and temptation. Deliver me from Satan’s schemes so I can bring You honor and glory. In Jesus Name, Amen.
