This great dragon—the ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, the one deceiving the whole world—was thrown down to the earth with all his angels.

Therefore, rejoice, O heavens! And you who live in the heavens, rejoice! But terror will come on the earth and the sea, for the devil has come down to you in great anger, knowing that he has little time.”

 Then the statue of the beast commanded that anyone refusing to worship it must die.

Let all that I am praise the Lord. 2I will praise the Lord as long as I live.

The Lord frees the prisoners. 8The Lord opens the eyes of the blind. The Lord lifts up those who are weighed down. The Lord loves the godly.

Lord God my Father,

Give me a spirit that only hears your Truth, protect me from the deceiver. May Praise and Joy be the power that leads me and protects me from fear, keep me in a constant state of praise. Free me from allowing any thoughts of doubt from entering me.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
