Pastor Jim Jarrett will continue his series in Ephesians today, and again prayer will be our topic. We continue to look at the basics of what prayer is supposed to be - and what it’s not supposed to be! Too often, we see prayer as an opportunity to vent our frustrations with life, or to present God a list of material requests. This is NOT what prayer is supposed to be about. Let’s bet back to the basics! Turn to Ephesians chapter six.

Satan hates prayer, and will do everything he can to keep us from it, because he knows how effective and important it is.  Today on Growing in the Word, we continue our study of Ephesians, with a look at the importance of prayer.

On today’s program, we’ll bring you another installment of Jim’s series in the sixth chapter of Ephesians. We’ve looked at identifying our enemy, satan, and we’ve also looked recently at the various parts of our spiritual armor. Today we’ll look again at the Sword of the Spirit.

Today, pastor Jim Jarrett continues his series on Spiritual Warfare in Ephesians chapter six. So far we’ve looked at being girded with truth, the breastplate of righteousness, spiritual footwear, our shield of faith and the helmet of salvation. Today we’ll look at the final piece of our warfare wardrobe - the sword of the spirit - God’s wonderful word.

On today’s program we continue our series on spiritual armor with a message based on the first half of Ephesians chapter six, verse seventeen. In this verse, Paul mentions the “helmet of salvation”. Exactly what is it?

Recently we've been preparing ourselves for Spiritual Warfare as part of our ongoing study of Ephesians. Today we turn our attention to the mind. That's certainly something satan has his sights set upon. He loves to confuse our thinking or make us think there’s no way to control our thoughts. There is a way to defend ourselves, I'm happy to say. Pastor Jim will encourage us to a new way of thinking and to put on our helmet of salvation.

Helmets are a very good piece of protection, and it’s true whether you’re talking about motorcyclists or Christians. Our subject today is a key piece of our spiritual armor - our helmet of salvation. Join us in Ephesians six, verse seventeen.

I’m sure you’ve seen those gladiator movies on TV, featuring numerous sword fights. If you know what I’m talking about, you know the importance of the shield - it’s the only thing keeping those guys from certain death. So it is with our faith in Jesus Christ. Join us today in Ephesians chapter six, verse sixteen.

Pastor Jim is sharing a mini-series on the Armor of God, and today we’ll be looking at a key piece of spiritual equipment - the shield of faith. Join us in Ephesians chapter six, verse sixteen.

If you’ve been shopping for athletic shoes lately, you know that the days of low tops versus high tops are long gone. There are different shoes for virtually every athletic endeavor. Footwear is important in our spiritual battle as well. So the question must be asked - do you have the right shoes? Join us in Ephesians chapter six, verse fifteen.
