#8 It’s Time to pray… ”deliver us from evil!”
Matthew 6:9-13 KJV Jesus said, “After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever.”
I Peter I:5 states: Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. (NIV/Gateway)
The phrase, “deliver us from evil”, is not preached about in our churches but in these last days, this phrase will become the most needed part of the Lord’s prayer. Jesus warned the disciples to be vigilant against the devil and stated that he was a liar from the beginning—the father of lies.
We should pray daily for God to deliver and keep us from the evil in this world. The devil lies to us using little lies and lies that will bind us indefinitely. Satan lies through the media, elected officials, and Hollywood films. We need to be ‘on guard’ and spiritually aware of his clever devices and means of deception.
I would encourage every believer to pray daily about ‘deliverance from evil’. There are so many verses in Psalms that support and illustrate how to confront evil and depend on God for His keeping and deliverance power to overcome evil. Christians accept far too many deceptions, lies, and the powers of evil in our lives and over our families. We need deliverance and the peace of Jesus Christ to resist evil and not allow the power of Satan to control our lives. We must pray always and pray multiple times during our daily walk with Christ—"God deliver us from all evil.”
If there are two books of the Bible I would read each day, it would be Psalms and Isaiah. These two books will give you hope, direction, and power to be a daily overcomer against Satan and all his followers. There are more and more individuals today carrying the ‘Mark of the Beast’ in their lives and on their foreheads.
Do not just ask for deliverance but also Godly wisdom and peace so Satan cannot get an advantage in your life or anything that comes under your care or responsibility or covering If the Body of Christ is to make it in these last days, we must be overcomes of evil and find strength to resist the devil no matter how or when he comes to us, wanting us to fail.
Lord Jesus, deliver us from evil and keep us in the love of God always doing and looking for God’s will to be done.
