Ready for the fight

Ephesians 6:10-24
There are many different ways of describing the Christian life (think ‘lying down in green pastures’, running a long distance race, working out in a gym), but in today’s message Paul describes it as a full-on battle. Why? Because we have a very formidable enemy in the the devil and his team looking for every opportunity to bring us down. He is clever, crafty and powerful, and will use the most devious tactics against us. He knows our weaknesses. That’s why we need God’s armour to protect us. Through our relationship with Christ we are not helpless victims of Satan’s attacks. Strengthened by our faith, God’s word and prayer we are victors. Are you up for the fight?
