DAILY PRAYER (BY SPURGEON)

We thank you that Jesus gives us the victory; but we long to have that victory in ourselves more constantly realized—more perfectly enjoyed. We would lie in the very dust before you because of sin. Yet at the same time, we rejoice in the great sin-bearer because our sin is not imputed to us; it is put away by his precious blood and we are accepted in the Beloved. But even this does not content us; we are crying after the work of the Holy Spirit within, until Satan shall be bruised under our feet, and sin shall be utterly destroyed.

Amen.

VERSE OF THE DAY (COMMENTARY BY SPURGEON)

“So we wanted to come to you—even I, Paul, time and again—but Satan hindered us.” (1 Thessalonians 2:18)

Satan is sure to hinder Christians when they are earnest in prayer. Have we not frequently found that when we have been most earnest in supplication, something or other will start across our minds to make us cease from praying? If Satan possibly can, he will come upon God’s people in those times when they are full of thought and ready for Christian effort, that he may murder their infant plans and cast these suggestions of the Holy Spirit out of their minds.

PRAY FOR THE NATIONS

This week, we’re praying for the Ahmadi of India.

As members of an unorthodox Islamic sect, they face persecution for their beliefs. They are suffering for a lie and only the truth of Christ can set them free.

Pray that the Ahmadi would be safe, but more importantly that they would trust in Christ.

RECOMMENDED RESOURCE

Fight Satan with the Word of God

This week, we are focusing our prayers on God’s power over Satan. In our battle with Satan, the outcome is secure, but that doesn’t mean Christians will not be impacted by demonic activity today. Often, our eyes are closed to the very real spiritual battle happening around us (and even in our hearts).

Beyond the Vale: Forty Days to Spiritual Freedom by Luke Bray is a sound and practical devotional resource to help you understand the Bible’s teaching on spiritual warfare and the power that God has given us to silence demons using prayer and Bible reading.

I know this book will be a blessing to you, so I hope you’ll grab a copy today.
