The Battle Belongs to the Lord

The Battle Belongs to the Lord

Author: Our Daily Bread Ministries UK May 20, 2026 Duration: 15:57

As night falls, rest in the assurance that God fights for you. Tonight’s Our Daily Bread Evening Meditation invites you to release your fears, worries, and battles into His hands, knowing that His power and protection are unmatched.

Reflecting on 2 Samuel 22:13-20, we are reminded that God rescues and delivers those who trust Him. Even when life feels overwhelming, He places us in safe, spacious places and shields us from harm. 

Let this meditation guide you to relax, find refuge in His strength, and experience the peace of being securely held by your faithful and mighty Lord.

Tonight’s meditation is read by Howie. Meet the team at odb.org/meet-the-team.
