Podcasts about Armor of God

Romans 10:13-17 (NKJV) Whoever CALLS on the name of the Lord shall be saved. 14, How then shall they CALL on Him in whom they have not BELIEVED? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not HEARD? And how shall they hear without a PREACHER? 15, And how shall they preach unless they are SENT… 17, So then FAITH comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Think about it, if our life is hidden in Him, if the fullness of God lives in us, if He took our infirmities, bore our sickness, since He's already established Himself as the Lord who heals, how are we supposed to respond? What's that supposed to look like?

In John's gospel, Jesus said, I am THE WAY, and no one comes to the FATHER except through Me. If you've seen Me you've seen the FATHER. Believe Me, I am in the FATHER and the FATHER is in Me. And I pray for those who will believe in Me, that they all may be one, as You, FATHER, are in Me, and I in You; THAT THEY MAY HE ONE IN US, that the world may believe that You sent Me. Possibly one of the greatest revelations a believer can comprehend is, “that they may be one in Us” Make no mistake, the “In Christ” life, at the end of the day is THE ETERNAL WITNESS, commissioned by the Master Himself. After all, according to Revelation 3, These things says THE AMEN, THE FAITHFUL and TRUE WITNESS, the Beginning of the creation of God.

In this message from Ephesians 6:14–17, Pastor Jim concludes the Armor of God section by focusing on the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. He explains that God's Word, through the Holy Spirit, orients us to reality, especially when life feels cloudy, confusing, or spiritually chaotic. The Spirit uses the written Word to point us to the living Word, Jesus, helping us resist deception, know truth, and walk in obedience. Ultimately, the goal is not simply to quote more Scripture, but to know Christ so deeply that the enemy's lies become unbelievable.

Ephesians 6 reminds us that Scripture, brought to life by the Holy Spirit, is far more than ancient text. It's a living, breathing source of strength for battles we face today. When we know God's Word deeply, we can stand firm against doubt, fear, and every lie that tries to steal our peace. Listen now and be inspired to pick up your Bible with fresh eyes and let the Spirit make it come alive in your heart.

Series: EphesiansScripture: Ephesians 6:10-17June 21, 2026 - Worship Service

Welcome to the sermon feed of Redeemer Baptist Church. Please join us this week in Ephesians 6:10-18 as Pastor Sam Barber pauses our sermon series through the Gospel of John to preach about the armor of God . We pray this serves to equip and encourage you as you do all to stand firm in the strength of His might.

When musk oxen are threatened, they don't scatter and fight alone. They form a tight, outward-facing circle — every animal protecting the one beside it. That's closer to what Paul had in mind in Ephesians 6 than anything Hollywood has given us. Paul wasn't writing to lone soldiers. He was writing to a family- the church. And the armor he describes was never a private kit. It's God's own armor, worn together, piece locking into piece, shield overlapping shield. In this final message of the Ephesians series, Pastor David walks through the full armor of God — truth, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation, the Spirit — and the vision of corporate prayer that follows it, closing out the letter on grace, peace, and love that never decays. In this message: Why every piece of armor belonged to God first - before it ever belonged to Rome The belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness, and gospel shoes — and what they mean for daily life The Roman shield-wall (testudo) and why faith was never meant to be carried alone Why the helmet of salvation defends the mind, not just the heart How we are meant to be a family together- standing in battle as one in Christ Key Scriptures: Ephesians 6:10–24 • Isaiah 11:5; 52:7; 59:17 • Ephesians 1:2; 2:8–9, 14; 4:21 • Romans 12:2 • 1 Peter 5:8–9 • 1 Thessalonians 5:8 • John 14:6, 26

Your life has a real fight in it, and one of the greatest dangers is misunderstanding what you're actually up against. In this session, we explore Ephesians 6:11–12 and take Paul's words seriously: “Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.” This is not a suggestion, a spiritual accessory, or something reserved for especially difficult seasons. It is a daily call to preparation for a daily battle that every believer faces.Together, we examine why partial armor leaves us vulnerable and why borrowed armor ultimately fails. God provides everything we need, but He calls each of us to put on the armor ourselves. No one can wear it on our behalf. A parent's faith, a pastor's conviction, or a friend's spiritual maturity may encourage us, but they cannot sustain us when trials come. The session draws a connection to the story of David and Goliath, where David refuses Saul's armor and steps onto the battlefield with confidence in the Lord. His victory reminds us that spiritual strength is not found in someone else's experience but in personally trusting the God who fights for His people.We also explore the foundational truth that reshapes the way we view conflict: we do not wrestle against flesh and blood. The struggles we face are often deeper than they appear. Behind visible challenges lies a spiritual battle that requires spiritual resources. Understanding this reality changes how we respond to opposition, temptation, discouragement, and fear. Instead of fighting the wrong enemy, we learn to stand firm in Christ and resist the schemes designed to gain a foothold in our lives.Throughout this teaching, we'll consider what it means to actively prepare for spiritual warfare, how to recognize the enemy's tactics, and why standing firm in Christ is both our responsibility and our privilege. If you've grown weary of spiritual passivity, feel exposed in the face of temptation, or find yourself fighting the same battles repeatedly, this session offers a practical and biblical call to “armor up” and walk in the strength God has already provided.Come discover how the whole armor of God equips ordinary believers to stand with confidence, persevere through opposition, and live with the assurance that the battle ultimately belongs to the Lord.We are Trinity Community Church in Knoxville, Tennessee.Subscribe to our Podcast & YouTube channel to find past sermons, classes, interviews, and more!Find us on Facebook & Instagram

Remember, “God is the Holy One, who inhabits eternity.” Our prayer with this talk is that we allow the apostle John's revelation to give us a fresh, BORN-AGAIN, eternal perspective. You've gotta wrap your head around this, right now, regardless of your beliefs, you are an eternal being.

Spiritual realities are voice-activated. “Believe in your heart and confess with your mouth.” “Death and life are in the power of the tongue” so without question, right believing will produces right speaking. But since we are spiritual people, according to this passage, right speaking can absolutely influence our believing.

In this message from Ephesians 6:10–17, Pastor Jim continues the Armor of God series by focusing on the helmet of salvation. He explains that salvation is not only something that happened in the past, but also a present and future reality. Through Jesus, believers have been justified, are being sanctified, and will one day be glorified. This salvation hope protects us against the enemy's accusations, discouragement, and lies by reminding us that Christ has rescued us, is still working in us, and will one day make all things new.

In this message, guest speaker Luis Aran walks through Paul's teaching on the Armor of God and reminds us that spiritual battles require spiritual preparation. Drawing from his years as a law enforcement officer, Luis compares the armor of God to the equipment and tools officers carry every day—each piece serving a specific purpose and none of it optional. Just as a police officer would never go into a dangerous situation without the proper gear, followers of Jesus are called to put on the full armor of God. From the belt of truth to the sword of the Spirit, every piece equips us to stand firm against the challenges, temptations, and attacks we face in everyday life. This practical and encouraging message will challenge you to examine whether you are spiritually prepared for the battles ahead and remind you that God has already provided everything you need to stand strong.   From Sunday 06.14.26

What does the helmet of salvation do? It reminds us of what's already true: we are justified, being sanctified, and will be glorified. The Hebrew word for salvation is Yeshua, the name of Jesus himself. So to put on this helmet is to cling to Christ, who is our salvation. Listen now and be inspired to guard your mind daily by preaching the gospel to yourself.

Paul now moves to an unlikely piece of armor, the shoes. The caligae of the Roman solders were made specifically for long marches, with care taken to not form blisters and to breathe. Paul bridges the shoes of a soldier, with us getting ready for the long march to bring the gospel of peace to all people. How does proper footwear impact the spiritual battle that we are in?

The shield is one of the most important pieces of a soldiers armor. It is the first line of defense. It is used to protect vital organs against projectiles and attacks. Paul uses the picture of a shield to speak on our need for faith in this spiritual war. With the enemy throwing all sorts of attacks, our faith in God and His promises is what protects us.

He who BELIEVES in the Son of God has THE WITNESS in himself; he who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the TESTIMONY that God has given of His Son. 1 John 5:10-12 (NKJV) 11, And this is the TESTIMONY: that God has given us ETERNAL LIFE, and this life is in His Son. 1 John 5:10-12 (NKJV) 12, He who has the Son has LIFE; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. 1 John 5:10-12 (NKJV)

If you've ever felt pressure to appear strong while carrying grief, uncertainty, disappointment, or exhaustion beneath the surface, this session offers a biblical perspective on where true strength is found. Speaker Ebenezer Asiamah explores Ephesians 6:10, “Be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might,” challenging common assumptions about strength and inviting us to see it through the lens of God's grace. Strength in the Lord is not a personality trait, emotional toughness, or the ability to hide weakness. It is a deep, inward steadiness rooted in our position in Christ and sustained by God's power at work in our lives.Throughout this session, we examine why Paul's use of the word “finally” in Ephesians matters, how spiritual warfare can become confusing when we are not grounded in the gospel, and why Scripture consistently points believers away from self-reliance. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 1 and Romans 5, we trace the pattern of God choosing the weak, sustaining the weak, and receiving the glory so that no one can boast in themselves. We also explore the connection between spiritual strength and intimacy with God through abiding in Christ (John 15), cultivating fellowship with Him, and discovering how the joy of the Lord becomes a genuine source of resilience that grows through worship, prayer, and allowing the Word of Christ to dwell richly within us.The session also focuses on David's experience at Ziklag, a defining moment marked by loss, fear, blame, and uncertainty. Faced with circumstances that could have driven him to panic, David instead “strengthened himself in the Lord.” His response provides a practical model for believers today: pause before reacting, seek God's presence, inquire of Him for direction, and trust Him to provide both the wisdom and strength needed for the path ahead. Through David's example, we discover how God meets His people in seasons of weakness and equips them to move forward in faith.Whether you are navigating personal challenges, spiritual battles, difficult decisions, or simply seeking a deeper understanding of what it means to be strong in the Lord, this session offers biblical encouragement and practical insight for building a life anchored in God's strength rather than your own.We are Trinity Community Church in Knoxville, Tennessee.Subscribe to our Podcast & YouTube channel to find past sermons, classes, interviews, and more!Find us on Facebook & Instagram

Ephesians10 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, 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. 14 Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and shaving 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; 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, 19 and also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++For more information about this group, please visit their website at reformationboise.com.

In this message from Ephesians 6:10–16, Pastor Jim continues the Armor of God series by focusing on the shield of faith. He explains that faith is not about the amount we can produce, but the object of our trust: the faithfulness of God revealed in Jesus. As the enemy sends fiery arrows of disobedience, doubt, despair, and distraction, believers are called to take up faith by fixing their eyes on Christ, remembering God's past faithfulness, and standing together as the family of God.

Faith is more than intellectual agreement. It's a trust that moves through our mind, heart and ultimately our actions. The "shield of faith" from Ephesians 6 represents God's own faithfulness. It's our protection against temptation, accusation, and doubt. Careers, finances, and institutions will shake, but only God's faithfulness holds firm. We take up this shield by preaching the gospel to ourselves daily, pursuing deeper knowledge of God, and living vulnerably in community, where collective faith strengthens us. Listen now and be inspired to move faith from your mind to your everyday life.

Being in a spiritual war is not something most people think about. Yes we see evil and bad things around us. But a war? It seems impossible because it is an enemy that we cannot see. But that is exactly what Paul wants us to understand. If we do not equip ourselves with spiritual armor, we are going to vulnerable to attacks. The Belt of Truth and the Breastplate of Righteousness are foundational pieces that protect our vitals and hold everything together. How do we put on this invisible armor against an invisible enemy?

05/31/26 Sermon:"Standing in Victory" (The Armor of God, part 2)Ephesians 6:14-18Senior Pastor, Doug Allen

May 31, 2026 - The Armor of God - Pastor Aaron Crabb

Embracing the reality that we are redeemed by Christ alone. He has declared us His, through His sacrifice, by His purpose and for His purpose. This is what makes baptism such a powerful testimony. And I'm telling you, this side of Heaven, baptism is one of the most Heavenly things we can do.

Romans 4, ABRAHAM BELIEVED in God who gives life to the dead and CALLS THOSE THINGS which do not exist as though they did; ABRAHAM BELIEVED, and became the father of nations. So NOT BEING WEAK IN FAITH, he did not consider his own body, He DID NOT WAVER AT THE PROMISE of God through unbelief, but was STRENGTHENED IN FAITH, giving glory to God, And being FULLY CONVINCED that what GOD HAD PROMISED He was also able to perform.

Let's start with this, Pentecost— “Feast of Weeks” celebration of the harvest, right after Passover, where the first fruit offerings were brought to the Lord. It's also when the Law was given to the children of Israel. It simply means the fiftieth. 50 days after Resurrection Sunday came Pentecost Sunday. This event was so significant that Jesus told the disciples that it was better for them if He leave so that the Holy Spirit could come. John 16:7 (AMP) “But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, THE HELPER (Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor—Counselor, Strengthener, Standby) will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him, the Holy Spirit to you to be in close fellowship with you.”
