Run to the Battle

(Part 1)

In these days of great evil and strife, there is no doubt about it that Satan is at war with God’s people. As the evils of the age advance, you and I must advance the cause of Christ. God’s Word gives us the power over darkness.

READ: Matt. 8:29; John 14:12; Rom. 16:20; Eph. 6:12; Heb. 11:3; Luke 10:19.
HEART ISSUE: Have you been too passive in speaking up for your faith? Are you standing firm and ready to defend what you believe?
PRAYER FOCUS: Father God, in the name of Jesus, thank You for showing me how to speak up for Christ. Thank You for giving me strength, confidence and peace in standing firm as a witness for You. Amen and amen.

(Part 2)

In the Word of God we can find great wisdom and the tools we need to combat our fears and overcome the power of the devil. You must learn to use the sword of the Spirit effectively, and to draw strength from God’s Spirit in order to walk in victory with Him each day.

READ: Matt. 10:1; Mark 3:14-15; Luke 9:1; Luke 10:1-20; Eph. 5:16; 1 John 3:8.
HEART ISSUE: Ask God to reveal the opportunities you may be missing to influence others for Him. In your prayer time, ask Him to show you specific ways in which you can be a stronger witness.
PRAYER FOCUS: Thank You, Lord, for empowering me to be Your vessel to shine in this dark and mixed-up world. Give me the words to speak when I witness to others. Let me not shrink back in fear. Allow me to be forceful and courageous, always showing Your love. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
