Prayer: The Believer's Secret Weapon (Ephesians 6:18-24)

Exposition of the 7th and arguably most important weapon in the Christian's armour is the weapon of "all prayer". Without prayer, the Christian soldier will be virtually powerless in the face of the Satanic forces of hell.

The Weapons of our Warfare Part 2 (Ephesians 6:16-17)

Exposition of the next three pieces of armour in the Christian's arsenal against the devil - the shield of faith, helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit.

The Weapons of our Warfare Part 1 (Ephesians 6:14-15)

In our last lesson, we considered the Apostle's exhortation to put on the whole armour of God in order that we might stand in the spiritual battle we find ourselves in. We were also introduced to the fearful enemy we face. The Apostle now proceeds to give us a piece-by-piece description of the armour we have been provided for the battle. God has given us 7 powerful weapons to use in spiritual warfare so that we might stand for Him. In this sermon we will consider the first three pieces of weaponry in the list.

Put on the Whole Armour of God (Ephesians 6:10-13)

In this expository sermon on Ephesians 6:10–13, the preacher reaches the climactic conclusion of Paul's epistle by examining the believer's spiritual warfare. Paul exhorts Christians to be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might, recognizing the reality of the unseen spiritual conflict against Satan and his hosts. The sermon explains the source of the believer's strength, the nature of the spiritual enemy, and God's provision of the whole armour of God, enabling believers to stand firm against the wiles of the devil and remain steadfast in the battle.

Walking with God at Work (Ephesians 6:5-9)

Having described how walking in wisdom under the control of the Spirit affects church and family life, the Apostle now describes how the believer is to conduct himself in the servant-master relationship. Very important lessons for the Christian in the workplace.
