  www.vecteezy.com " Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for our sins , that He might deliver us from this present evil age , according to the will of our God and Father, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen." [1]   The world is getting crazier and crazier, and peace is a rare commodity. News outlets air lies made to sound like sensible truth, spewed by educated, stylishly dressed individuals, leaving us to wonder what to believe. Two factions. Two contradicting accounts of the same event, yet only one can be true. Tension rises, and anger festers between the two, and we're caught in the middle. Uncertainty chases peace out the door, and before it can slam shut, their evil schemes, cloaked in piety, sneak in to deceive.   Would we recognize the evil and reject it? [2] Could we be deceived, trapped by the enemy, and end up much worse off? With all the trickery of men and media, how are we supposed to dis...

  DAY FIFTEEN   “Why do the nations rage, And the people plot a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord and against His Anointed, saying, “Let us break their bonds in pieces and cast away their cords from us.” [1]   We feel like all is lost, O Lord.

[3] For You, Almighty God, deliver us from evil . You make our feet like the feet of deer, swift, steady, and sure. You alone set us on high plac...

  DAY NINE:   “O Lord God of our fathers, are You not God in heaven, and do You not rule over all the kingdoms of the nations, and in Your hand is there not power and might, so that no one is able to withstand You?” [1]   Most High God, we praise and honor You who lives forever: For Your dominion is an everlasting dominion, and Your kingdom is from generation to generation. All the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; You do according to Your will in the army of heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth. No one can restrain Your hand or say to You, “What have You done?” [2]   You alone are the one True and Living God, and we, Your children, come before You this morning on behalf of our country, our President, and ourselves. Deliver us from the great evil that is seeking to destroy .   Father, the enemy appears strong in our physical world. “O our God, will You not judge them? For we have no power against this great multitude that...
