Sunday Sermon Snippets

"10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; 18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints..."
~Ephesians 6


1---You gonna stand there and whine or WIN the battle?


2---All armor listed above IS NECESSARY for the battles we are fighting in our lives.
Don't expect to win on your own....without the equipment.


3---The breastplate is so important to protect your heart and what you let in it...because what is in our hearts does come out whether you like it or not....it just does.


4---Always choose the shoes of peace......not those of an angry fighter.


5---The shield of faith: We can't do this battle without faith...it just doesn't work.


6---The helmet is crucial to protecting your brain....for the brain is the battle ground satan loves to attack the mostest and the hardest!!!


I dedicate today's post to my dear friend Patty who is fighting hard.....to win the good fight.
And there's not a doubt in my mind that she's gonna come out on the winner's side!!!!
