STUDIES ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
BATTLE READY
INTRO
INTRODUCTION
▸ When Paul established the church at Ephesus, he wanted them to know the
way to best wage war against the enemy.
▸ The main area of focus is Ephesians 6:10-20.
▸ Each lesson will be a deep dive into each individual piece of the armor.
INTRO
INTRODUCTION
▸ The world is at war. A conflict is wreaking havoc on all of creation. Spiritual
warfare is an epic battle with consequences that will reverberate throughout all
of eternity.
▸ Confrontation escalated in the Garden of Eden where Adam was dealt a blow
that would set a precedent for Gods people.
▸ I am speaking not of a war between men but a war between on the spiritual
realm.
INTRO
▸ The battle Christians face every day are rooted in the schemes of the devil.
▸ He would be perfectly happy for you to picture him as a cartoon character, so
that you would not take him seriously.
▸ You cannot fight the spiritual with the physical.
▸ What we call spiritual warfare is the conflict we cant see but effects the world
we can see.
INTRO
▸ The scripture shows us whom we fight against.
▸ We fight against rulers, authorities, principalities,and spiritual wickedness in
high places.
▸ We don’t wrestle against flesh and blood. The people are real. The problems
are real. They are just not the root problem.
▸ Therefore you must fight the spiritual on that level, and that requires you to put
on the armor of God.
INTRO
▸ The pieces of the armor are the belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness,
shoes of peace, shield of faith,helmet of salvation, and the sword of the spirit.
▸ Standing firm in the Armor of God does not stop the battle it just keeps it from
stopping you.
▸ It is believed that Paul was comparing to the Roman Miles foot soldiers armor
something the church at Ephesus would have been familiar with.
THE ARMOR OF GOD IS
NOT AN OPTION FOR
BATTLE BUT A
NECESSITY.
