Souls at War: Sword of the Spirit

The Hatridge Sermons

"Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God..."

Ephesians 6:13-17 ESV

If we are at war, then we need armor. We need the "Whole Armor of God". Paul outlines the elements of spiritual defense needed when combating the wicked one. Truth, Righteousness, Peace, Faith, Salvation, and the Spirit are all necessary to be spiritually victorious in the battles ahead. We are all in the midst of a spiritual war. And too many of us are ill-prepared and equipped. This leaves us feeling beat down and defeated. Are you ready to learn how to become a spiritual warrior?
