Spiritual Wickedness Ephesians 6 v 12 - 13 1000 Days Of Searching The Scriptures Pastor Chidi Okorie 2023-01-27-#548

Ephesians 6:12-13 is a passage from the Bible that describes the spiritual battle that believers in Jesus Christ face. It states, "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand."In these verses, the apostle Paul is emphasizing the fact that Christians are not just fighting against physical enemies, but against spiritual enemies as well.The "rulers, authorities, powers of this dark world" and "spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms" refer to the influence of Satan and his minions, who seek to oppose God and His followers.Paul also encourages believers to "put on the full armor of God." This refers to the spiritual armor that God provides to protect and empower His people. This armor includes the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shoes of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.The passage concludes with a reminder that even with the armor of God, victory is not guaranteed.The believer must "stand your ground" and "after you have done everything, to stand." It is important to remember that in the spiritual battle, Christians are called to be faithful and obedient to God, even if they do not see immediate results.In summary, Ephesians 6:12-13 is teaching that Christians are engaged in a spiritual battle against the forces of evil, and that God provides the armor necessary to stand firm in the face of this opposition. It reminds us that the victory is not guaranteed and we have to fight with all the spiritual weapons given to us by God.SendMe Radio 📻SendMe Radio is now a radio station playing 24/7 download the SendMe Radio app from the Google Play or Apple Store you can also access SendMe Radio from any of the links below.Google Action is available on Google Home:
