Session 18

I will give you strength and protection

From Promises: A 30-Day Devotional

But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.

- 2 Thessalonians 3:3

We can be sure God is faithful. His past performance in our difficult circumstances points to His unchanging character and faithfulness. In addition, Jesus’ resurrection from the dead proves Satan’s impotence and confirms that in Christ, no situation is hopeless.

We are aware of the enemy’s schemes. He comes to steal, kill, and destroy. But our God is a strong Father, guarding and establishing our steps. He has not left us alone. While the enemy may prowl around like a lion seeking to devour the weak, our God is strong and makes us strong. We can stand up and endure no matter what the enemy throws our way.

Reflect: 

• Where have you seen God’s faithfulness?
• What’s one area of your life where God has strengthened you?
• How have you seen the Lord protect you from evil?
