Sword of the Spirit, Part 2c

April 19, 2012
If you commit to spending time in the Word, God will give you the wisdom to use it. Don’t let sin keep you from the Scriptures. David said, “Thy Word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against thee.” Let that be our prayer.
References: Ephesians 6:17

We know that God’s Word is supposed to be our weapon against spiritual warfare — but how? As we get into part two of our study on the Sword of the Spirit, Pastor Jeff explains exactly how the Scriptures function as a weapon against Satan.

The Bible serves many purposes. It is our life manual! It convicts, it saves, and it strengthens. Pastor Jeff also describes how the Scriptures are full of science and history. Instead of relying on evolution and unbiblical worldviews, God has revealed the truths of the earth in His Word. They are there for us to find!

Is Christ your all-in-all? Do you have a passion for him? Or are you caught up in religion instead of relationship? Get into the Word, and let Jesus get into your heart. We need to pursue a personal relationship with Him rather than focusing on the nitty-gritty aspects of man-made religion.

Sadly, our nation today is in the middle of a spiritual famine. People “talk the talk,” but don’t truly love the Lord or follow His Word. Instead they place a priority on earthly goods. Here, Pastor Jeff reminds us of the importance of putting on Jesus. When we receive Him, we are beyond the reach of the world and its material riches.

With God’s armor, every part of our body is protected. Isaiah 54:17 says, “No weapon that is formed against you shall prosper. And every tongue that shall rise against you in judgment God shall condemn.” Put your eyes on the Lord, trust Him, and He will always give you victory.

God’s armor gives us guaranteed victory over the warfare Satan constantly brings against us. Sadly, there is much fatigue in the church today. In this study, Pastor Jeff cautions us against lethargy, and encourages us to get serious about following the Lord in these final days!

God gives us the understanding that we lack on our own. When you realize what God has done in your life, don’t ignore it. Let others know! Ask the Lord to fill you with the Spirit in order to bless others around you.

Today Pastor Jeff starts teaching on the Helmet of Salvation. God’s defensive armor enables us to endure the hardships that the devil brings against us. Also, we learn that communication with God is of the utmost importance. Don’t forget to pray!

Easter is a time to remember that Jesus lives! He suffered on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins, but now He sits at the right hand of God. If we make Jesus the Lord of our lives, then one day we will join Him in Heaven. Let Jesus roll the stone away from your heart, and grant you eternal life.

In taking communion, we remember Christ’s sacrifice. Today, Pastor Jeff reminds us how important this sacrament really is. We must approach it with sincerity, examining our hearts to make sure that we are holy before the Lord. Paul warns us against taking communion lightly so that we do not eat and drink judgment to ourselves.
