And who can win this battle against the world? Only those who believe that Jesus is the Son of God.

And we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him.

We know that God’s children do not make a practice of sinning, for God’s Son holds them securely, and the evil one cannot touch them. 19We know that we are children of God and that the world around us is under the control of the evil one.

And don’t forget Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighboring towns, which were filled with immorality and every kind of sexual perversion. Those cities were destroyed by fire and serve as a warning of the eternal fire of God’s judgment.

They told you that in the last times there would be scoffers whose purpose in life is to satisfy their ungodly desires. 19These people are the ones who are creating divisions among you. They follow their natural instincts because they do not have God’s Spirit in them.

Lord God my Father,

You are in control, your plan is perfect. Keep my eyes focused on your Truth and keep my feet on your path. Help me to share you as you wish to be shared.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
