The Bible often illustrates the Christian life as a battle. There is a raging war against sin and Satan. We are soldiers of Christ in a spiritual warfare (II Corinthians 10:3-4, II Timothy 2:3-4). As Scripture says, “We do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against spiritual hosts of wickedness” (Ephesians 6:12). That’s why the apostle Paul encourages Christians to “put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil” (verse 11). The armor of God, which Paul describes in Ephesians 6:10-20, is made up of seven items: the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shoes of the gospel, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, the sword of the spirit, and the communication line of prayer. How do they work? Why are they necessary? Join us in this podcast as we investigate these great elements that help us in our Christian walk. If you feel weak, or discouraged, or beaten down... read these verses and gain comfort. He will give you strength. You will “be able to stand against the wiles of the devil” (Ephesians 6:10-11). You got this!!
