John Bunyan, author of the Christian classic Pilgrim’s Progress  said, “Prayer is a shield to the soul, a sacrifice to God, and a scourge for Satan. Yet when it comes to using it as a scourge for Satan, we often treat it like the fire alarms that read in emergency break glass, saving prayer for a rare occasion. In our episode of Sound Doctrine today, Pastor Jeff Johnson shows us not just the effectiveness, but the personal need that each believer has when it comes to prayer. As you follow along in our study, we pray that the Lord will encourage, challenge, and inspire you in your prayer life as well. With that in mind, let’s get in to Ephesians 6 for our message titled, “Praying in the Spirit” with Pastor Jeff Johnson.
