In Luke 17:20-21 the Lord stated, “The kingdom of God is not coming with signs to be observed; nor will they say, ‘Look, here it is!’ or, ‘There it is!’ For behold, the kingdom of God is in your midst.” This past week will go down in history as one of the most important weeks in the spiritual...

In this week’s study of Ephesians 6:23-24, we come to the conclusion of Paul’s great Epistle: Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ with incorruptible love. This concluding statement to...

As Paul continues to close this great Epistle, we are given an even deeper glimpse into his great character, as we read in Ephesians 6:21-22: But that you also may know about my circumstances, how I am doing, Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, will make everything...

In our verses for last week, Paul encourages believers to pray for the purposes of God and one another. Then, last of all he asks for prayer for himself, which we see in Ephesians 6:19-20: and pray on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me in the opening of my mouth, to make known with...

This week we will continue our consideration of Ephesians 6:18: With all prayer and petition pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints, Think for one moment how radically our lives would be transformed if all the...

As we continue our study of the full armor of God, the second half of Ephesians 6:17 states that we must also take up “the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.” The sword is part of the armor that is used for protection, but it is also the only offensive weapon that we have been given...

This week we continue our study of the armor of God in Ephesians 6:17: And take THE HELMET OF SALVATION... The helmet protects the head or the mind. If salvation is working in our lives, then our minds will be renewed. We will not continue to think the way we did, or the way the world does. If...

This week we continue our study on the armor of God in Ephesians 6:16: in addition to all, taking up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. There are many aspects to faith. We enter into salvation by faith, and it is accounted to us as...

This week we continue our study of the armor of God in Ephesians 6:15: and having shod YOUR FEET WITH THE PREPARATION OF THE GOSPEL OF PEACE; Walkers and hikers know the value of good shoes. We must also consider that there is a reason why our “walk with the Lord” is called a “walk.” It is not a...
