During the Sierra Leone Civil War, which began in 1991, many communities lived in constant fear because of the widespread violence and instability. In the middle of this difficult period, an American missionary, Reverend Ralph Bowen, was serving in the city of Kabala. For years, he had been teaching believers not just to attend church, but to build strong personal prayer lives and deep trust in God.
When conflict eventually reached Kabala in the mid-1990s, many people fled for safety. Yet many members of Reverend Bowen’s church remained calm and anchored in prayer. Remarkably, testimonies later emerged that several Church families experienced unusual preservation during that period of unrest.
One testimony often shared was about a local police officer who stayed inside his quarters during an attack, reading his Bible and praying instead of running into danger. Though nearby buildings were damaged by fire, his room remained untouched.
The testimonies of these church members became a powerful reminder that faith in God grants believers divine help, guidance, and preservation even in uncertain times.

Luke 21:36 teaches us that watchfulness and constant prayer position us for divine escape and preservation. Devotion is not just something we practice occasionally — it is a lifestyle of staying connected to God daily.
When devotion to God becomes deep and consistent, our spiritual sensitivity increases. We become more alert to divine warnings, divine direction, and divine protection. Prayer is not only a place to ask God for help; it is a place where we stay aligned with His covering and guidance.
Many people run to prayer only in emergencies, but those who live in constant devotion often experience God’s help before trouble ever arrives. Devotion keeps our hearts anchored in faith instead of fear. It keeps our minds stable when the world around us feels unstable.
In these times, devotion must be intentional. Time in prayer, time in the Word, and time in God’s presence are spiritual investments that speak for us in the day of trouble. The deeper we dwell in God’s presence, the stronger our confidence in His protection becomes.
As we commit to deep devotion that borders on holy obsession this season, we can trust that God will guide us, preserve us, and position us for victory in all circumstances..

PRAYER
Father, I thank You for drawing me into deeper devotion and intimacy with You. As I seek You consistently in prayer and in Your Word, I trust that You will preserve, guide, and protect me in every season of my life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

QUOTE
As long as Jesus is in your boat, you cannot sink or fail. God’s presence always guarantees your victory –
