Description: We look at the sixth and final piece of the Armor of God and the only piece that is both defensive and offensive in nature. We also look at Isaiah 59 and see how this armor, which belongs to Christ, has passed the test and not found wanting.
Description: We look at the fifth piece of the Armor of God and the last of the defensive pieces (the last is offensive). This piece truly represents the last piece of our defense, where we must look beyond the temporal battle and fix our eyes upon Jesus and the most sure hope of glory, knowing that this battle will have an end and the end is known and victorious.
Description: The elderly prophet Daniel has the opportunity to return to Judah after 70 years in captivity. The problem is that not many want to return with him. He is met and encouraged by a spectacular vision, an overwhelming vision of the future. This is a unique and exciting portion of Scripture.
Description: Our Lord had such respect for the Old Testament writings. They contain wonderful stories that show us the Heart of God in His dealing with mankind. This section in Genesis that we will focus on today gives us a precious look at the tenderness of the Lord in leading us, His children.
Description: Paul has divided the whole Armor of God into two categories. We study the first piece of armor in the second category which is the shield of faith. We learn what faith is and how to wield it and why and how it protects us. We also learn how even our faith is nothing but the trust that we place upon the person and work of Christ.
Description: Although it may sound strange to read about peace when we are being equipped for war, it is not strange at all. War and peace are always two sides of the same coin, and when you are at war with one party it usually means that you have established peace with another. We are warring against the devil because we have experienced peace with God. We need to remind ourselves of this peace with God: that Christ has purchased and firmly planted our feet into it so that we will be able to stand firm.
Description: Israel had wandered away from Jehovah God, and they were worshiping false gods. Elijah, a bold and brave Prophet, is used of God to point the people back to Himself.
Description: The enemy is a slanderer and a liar. In our passage today, Paul shows us how Christ’s righteousness is as a shield about the sinner and protects us from the enemy’s lies and enables us to stand in the spiritual battle that we are engaged in.
Description: In our Key Text today,Paul gives us the first of six pieces of armor. It is this first piece, described as the “Armor of God,” which he commands us to put on so that we will be able to stand firm against the attacks of the enemy.
Description: Nearly all of the Bible can be read and understood at face value. But there are some sections that can be confusing and misleading if not approached properly. One such section we’ll look at today is the 6th chapter of the Book of Hebrews.
Description: Each day of our lives we are exposed to unsaved people. If we are not ready to share Christ it won’t happen. The answer is simple: be ready.
Description: There is so much confusion over the concept of Spiritual Warfare. Much of it stems from not understanding our position as believers in Christ and not understanding all that Christ has accomplished on our behalf. We need to remember that we fight from a position of victory and the battle has been won.
Description: The Bible is very clear about who is behind every bad thing that happens to individuals or families, or even nations. God’s Holy Word is the only absolute source of information on this topic and God has much to say about it.
Description: We speak of the world spiraling down into depravity but in reality that’s where it has always been. God has an absolute standard of holiness. That call for holiness in our lives is clear in Scripture.
Description: The single most prevalent description in the Bible of the Christian’s relationship with Christ is the slave/master relationship. If that is the case, why don’t we notice it when we are reading Scripture and what does that view of our Christian status declare about how we should then live?
Description: Paul provides parents with two commands: The first is negative as he tells parents what they are not to do. The second is positive as Paul instructs Christian parents on their responsibilities and duties before the Lord.
Description: For all of us who follow Jesus, each morning we have the fresh opportunity to draw close to Him. There is always the temptation as we go through our day that we, like Peter, will spend our day following Jesus at a distance — far off.
Description: God has created and placed in every person an awareness of good and bad. We all use this marvelous tool daily but we don’t often identify it as conscience.
