Ephesians 6:13~ Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
We must put on spiritual armor because we are in a spiritual war. We must do more than just say our prayers and read our Bibles every day. We must also learn to recognize the spiritual armor God has given us to protect us spiritually and get ready for spiritual warfare.

Ephesians 6:13~ Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
We must put on spiritual armor because we are in a spiritual war. We must do more than just say our prayers and read our Bibles every day. We must also learn to recognize the spiritual armor God has given us to protect us spiritually and get ready for spiritual warfare. We should treat every day, every task, and every Bible verse as if they are important because we know we are at war. The day of evil will come, so let's be ready to stand up for ourselves with the tools and power God gives us.
Prayer : We must put on spiritual armor because we are in a spiritual war. We must do more than just say our prayers and read our Bibles every day. We must also learn to recognize the spiritual armor God has given us to protect us spiritually and get ready for spiritual warfare.

Ephesians 6:12~ For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
We are at war! We have to fight every day, and not just against sin and temptation. We have a real enemy whose goal is to get rid of us. But our enemy has already been defeated, and his angels have been told to go away. So, let's keep our spiritual strength, knowi... moreGood morning brothers and sisters

We are at war! We have to fight every day, and not just against sin and temptation. We have a real enemy whose goal is to get rid of us.

Prayer: I praise You, Almighty and Victorious King, for defeating sin, death, and the law for us and making us righteous and free of sin through Your grace. Thank You. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.

Romans 6:11~ Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Jesus died for our sins, and so did we. But just putting sin away won't keep it from coming back. Every day, we must accept Jesus' new life for us and be open to the Lord's exciting will for us. Let's leave the dead and the past where they belong. Let's live with passion for God and keep our eyes on Jesus and what He has planned for us.

1 Timothy 6:9~ But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
This message is not for people who have a lot of money. No, this is for everyone who wants to be rich. When we want it, covet it, and go after it, we put ourselves in grave danger. "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these other things will be added to you," Jesus said.

Genesis 6:8~ But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
This reminds me of what God said to Jesus at His baptism: "...in You I am well pleased." Even though Noah's culture was full of sin, God was able to find the one heart that was loyal to Him and use him and his family to bless the world and give it a future. May we all be like this in our daily lives, at work, at school, and in our neighborhoods. Can you imagine how different things would be if we all ... moreGood morning brothers and sisters

As children of God, what we do to other people is just as important as what we do to ourselves. In this time of sickness and pain, we must do good to everyone. God cares about every person and every life, and so should we.
Prayer: O LORD God Almighty, You can see everything and know what's in everyone's heart. Please give me the wisdom to see the people I need to invest in. Lord, help me to use the chances You give me to do good for other people. I ask for this help in the name of Jesus, and I want to serve others in a way that honors Jesus. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.

We must never let crass showmanship or pride ruin this very personal conversation, which is kept going by the precious Spirit of God in us. We don't pray to show how religious we are, but to get closer to Almighty God!
Prayer: Thank you so much, Abba Father, for the amazing gift of prayer. Thank you for hearing both what I say and how I feel. Thank you for not being far away. Please forgive me when I don't talk to You as much as I should or when I don't appreciate Your willingness to listen. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.

Prayer: O Lord God Almighty, Abba Father, our country is suffering because so many fathers have left their children both spiritually and physically. Please raise up parents, especially fathers, who can balance the hard tasks of loving, caring for, and correcting their children so that our land can be healed and our children can know Your love and grace.

Baptism is more than just a sign on the outside. It is getting to the heart of the gospel (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) and sharing in it by God's grace (Romans 6:1-15).
