All Nations Church, Tallahassee Florida - Pastor Steve Dow - Sermons, Teaching and Inspiration - Reaching All People by All Means With the Gospel of Jesus Christ!

Ephesians 6:10-17 1. THE WAR WE FIGHT Ephesians 6:12-13 What happens in this space affects what happens in this place. 2. THE WARDROBE WE WEAR Ephesians 6:14-15 THE BELT of Truth THE BODY ARMOR-Breastplate of Righteousness THE BOOTS of the Gospel of Peace THE SHIELD OF FAITH-Ephesians 6:16 Faith is not faith until we act on it. Don’t forget in the dark what you learned and believed in the light. DARTS DOUBT ANXIETY REBELLION TRIALS SENSUALITY The Roman shield was made to LINK together for protection and unification. THE HELMENT OF SALVATION Ephesians 6:17 The helmet protects the mind because the battle is in the MIND fields. Romans 12:1-2 THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT Ephesians 6:17 Jesus was tempted three times and three times He declared, “It is written!” Matthew 4:1-11 The Sword doesn’t just contain the Word of God, it IS the Word of God! It is a sacred scalpel-Hebrews 4:12-13 Physical sword brings death- Spiritual Sword brings life! Physical sword becomes dull with use- Spiritual Sword becomes sharper with use. The physical sword penetrates skin- Spiritual Sword penetrates the heart. John 14:20 "On that day you will realize that I am in My Father, and you are in Me, and I am in you." Christ in me-Belt of Truth, Breastplate of Righteousness, Gospel Boots. Me in Christ-Shield of Faith, Helmet of Salvation, The Sword of the Spirit. Question: Are you posing or are you walking in the armor of God?
