August 22, 2021 - Where's My Battle Armor?
In this episode of Serving Jesus Christ, Pastor Swanson shares a Sunday message titled,
Where's My Battle Armor?
Most of us harbor the thought that the Christian life should be more trouble-free. . . that we shouldn’t need to worry about any enemies of our soul.
That would be great, wouldn’t it? A day is coming when this will be true, but for now, as human beings living in this fallen world, we must deal with a seriously hungry adversary.
1 Peter 5:8 NAS95
Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil,
prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
I have noticed that many Christians do not understand the intent and capabilities of their adversary the Devil. It is almost as if they do not believe that the devil is real.
They do not take the time to put on the armor of God.
Throughout this letter to the Ephesians, the Apostle Paul has carefully crafted and established what our position is in Christ. There is no question that the Apostle Paul desired the very best for the believers at Ephesus.
Paul wraps up his letter to the Ephesians by expressing his desire that they, and other Christians, would be successful in their Christian walk. He shares the tools. . . that is, the armor that God has provided.
