3 John 1:4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth. We are Father God’s beloved children NOW. He has given us all we need in Christ Jesus for the rest of our journey here on Earth. He has empowered us by the Holy Spirit to be the…

Even though we have been made spiritually complete in Christ, we are still “broken.” Part of our “brokenness” is the sin that indwells our flesh—in the members/limbs of our physical bodies (“this body of sin” Romans 6:6, “this body of death” Romans 7:24). Our bodies are the last part of us to be renovated. Now,…

Romans 7:6 But now we have been released from the law, because we have died to what controlled us, so that we may serve in the new life of the Spirit and not under the old written code. Father God has set us free in Christ through the work of the Holy Spirit. He had…

Today we continue our discussion of the Armor that God has given to us to stand firm against the attack of our external enemy,—Satan who is at work in the World. As we heard yesterday, the last three items—the shield of faith, the helmet of Salvation and the Sword of the Spirit and are all…

Today, we begin looking at the six pieces of our Spiritual Armor and their significance in our life. As we discuss these pieces, we are going to talk about two aspects of their blessing. There is an objective reality in this armor—Father God has done something to us, given something to us. There is also…

Ephesians 6:13…take up the full armor of God so that you may be able to stand your ground on the evil day, and having done everything, to stand.” Father God has made provisions for us to stand firm against the attacks of our external enemy—The Devil—who is at work in the World. We stand firm…

We are wounded by our struggles in the World. We are broken by the sin that still lives within us. But In Christ, we are being healed and made whole.
