BELIEVERS’ WEAPONS AND ASSURANCE OF VICTORY

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: BELIEVERS’ WEAPONS AND ASSURANCE OF VICTORY

TEXT: EPHESIANS 6: 10-18 

MONDAY MAY 22nd 

Key Verse: Philippians 2:10 ‘That at the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow
The believer should know that there are wiles, tricks, methods, devices, and strategies that Satan uses against Christians. Satan has planned an evil day for every believer, designed for the person’s ‘destruction. If you are not careful to keep watch over yourself, it will be easy for you to be captured by the enemy. If you are careless to begin to lie, steal, return to immorality, perversion, secret sin, worldliness and to compromise your faith, you have opened the door to the enemy, and have given Satan the power to activate your evil day. These behaviors mean that you would have walked from under the secret place of the Most-High, and forfeited the provision of the abiding presence and cover of the Almighty available to you. Satan begins to take you over.
Believers need to be conscious of this and constantly put on their whole armour and do all to stand in the evil day. Satan wants to destroy the greatness of the vision upon your life, so you backslide and you are ultimately destroyed in hell. So, you need to battle for your survival. The devil used a sorcerer, Elymas, demonically to hinder the deputy from coming to the truth but Paul overcame him. We must be watchful, sober, and vigilant to discern all plots and schemes of the enemy. Be not ignorant of the enemy’s devices.
Satan always looks for ways to get you out of the race; make you angry; put disappointment in your way so that you can withdraw; weaken your spiritual energy and your connection with God so that you can be defeated and pushed away from God. Believers do not have to be defeated by Satan’s wiles. We have weapons of truth, righteousness, obedience, the whole armour, the name of Jesus, the blood of Jesus, and praying with all kinds of prayers; intercession, supplication, giving thanks, and prayer warfare. We need to know our weapons and use them in warfare to guarantee our victory, defensively and offensively. These all work together to pull down the strategies and strongholds of the enemy.

Thought for the day: Never let down your guard

Song for the day: Every knee shall bow and every tongue confess

Bible reading for the day: 1 Chronicles 6-7; John 8:21-36

KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
