Fear Or Apathy

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. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; Ephesians 6:13-17 (NKJV)

STUDY QUESTION: What can we learn with respect to our responsibilities as Christian men and women with regard to engaging in Spiritual warfare?

PERSONAL INVENTORY: Are you putting on your armor consisting of the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shoes of peace, the helmet of salvation, the shield of faith, and the only offensive weapon, the sword of the Spirit, which is God's Word?

APPLICATION: Seek to be dressed for battle soldier! The war is coming to you today whether you like it or not, so be prepared to fight!
 
When I study the passage in Eph. 6 I find it very interesting that Paul says we need to stand our ground, stand firm. We are not to be afraid of Satanic attacks but to stand firm in the truth and righteousness of Jesus Christ.

Resist Satan and he will flee from you.
