How do Christians overcome spiritual opposition? Putting on the armour of God means putting on Jesus Christ. God Himself is our defender - our shield and our strength. God gives us victory over spiritual opposition, and demolishes the attack of the enemy. New Creations, overcome the lies and deceptions of the enemy with the truth of God's word, and stand in the victory that Jesus secured at the cross. Hosted on Acast.

As we wrap up the first series here at the We Are Recreated Podcast, we explore the present-tense provision and care of God as it relates to our present-tense new identity in Christ.

The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. (2 Corinthians 5:17) There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
