  1. Ephesians 6:10-12 ESV 10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. 11  Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood,

  2. Ephesians 6:12-13 ESV but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil 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 firm.

  3. Ephesians 6:14-16 ESV 14 Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. 16 In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one;

  4. Ephesians 6:17-18 ESV 17 and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, 18 praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints . . .

  5. There is an unseen butvery real spiritual war that influences our lives & the natural world we live in.

  6. We have to recognize& engage the battle around us.

  7. 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 ESV 3 For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. 4 For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. 5 We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raisedagainst the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ . . .

  8. “Strongholds”: Evidenced by beliefs & behaviors that work to keep people captive to fleshly desires & false thinking, & hinder the advance of the Gospel and the glory of God.

  9. “arguments &…lofty opinions raised against the knowledge of God”: False knowledge & prevailing cultural views that conflict with or obscure the truth of God
