What “Deliver Us From Evil” Really Means

What does “deliver us from evil” really mean? In this Daily Hope devotional, Pastor John S. Dickerson continues walking through the Lord’s Prayer and shows how this final phrase teaches us to pray for protection from the evil one. Temptation does not only come from our own sinful desires. Scripture also teaches that we have a real enemy who lies, deceives, schemes, and sets traps. But if you belong to Jesus, you do not have to live intimidated by the enemy. Greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. When we pray, “Deliver us from evil,” we are asking God to protect us from Satan’s lies, renew our minds through His Word, guard our families and churches, and keep us walking in the freedom and power of the Holy Spirit. If spiritual warfare feels intimidating, let this line from the Lord’s Prayer remind you: your enemy is real, but Christ is greater.
