Podcasts about shield of faith

In all circumstances, we are to take up the shield of faith. Circumstances are the area of satanic attack that require the shield of faith because they are often the battleground between fear and faith. Fear is an assault on faith, and both ask us the question, "what do I believe about my circumstances and about God?"

Ephesians 6:16 Pastor Sam Cirrincione

James explores the spiritual battle against Satan's attacks by examining Ephesians 6:16, which commands believers to take up the shield of faith. He illustrates how the enemy uses fiery darts of doubt, fear, and sin to inflame the heart, but emphasizes that faith acts as a protective barrier by relying on God's character and promises rather than personal strength. His sermon clarifies that while temptations will inevitably strike, believers can extinguish their destructive power through trust in Scripture and immediate obedience. It encourages Christians to recognize these attacks as evidence of being in the battle rather than signs of failure, urging them to stand firm in the Lord's might. Ultimately, the teaching calls for a life of conscious dependence on God's strength to maintain peace and unity within the church and home.

This week we're putting it all together. Across this training we've talked about identity, purpose, and mission — but this episode gets to the heart of it with one simple, powerful question: Why are you fighting, and why don't you just give up?We dig into why this question matters so much — it's a whole-brain question that pulls us out of a numb, "I'm fine" autopilot and into clarity about who we are and what we're actually living for. Along the way, women in the group share their own honest, often moving answers: fighting for change, for family, for eternal identity, for the simple fact that they still can.We also talk about:Why we can't be "purse fighters" — just saying "stop it" isn't enoughThe idea of the sword of truth and the shield of faithA powerful story about bringing faith to the forefront, inspired by Elder and Sister Kearon's address to young single adults and the hymn "Let Us All Press On"Why remembering who we're really fighting (hint: there's only one enemy) changes everythingWhatever season of life you're in, this conversation is an invitation to pause, get honest, and remember why you're still standing in the fight.

In Gethsemane the faith of Jesus doesn't look triumphant but appears as trembling trust. Jesus does not deny the coming suffering but brings it honestly before the Father when He says, “Not My will, but yours be done.” The Shield of Faith does not pretend everything will turn out the way we prefer but it is entrusting ourselves to God even when the outcome is costly. Faith extinguishes the flaming arrows of fear and abandonment not by removing the pain but by holding onto the character of God. Our God will never leave us or forsake us & He has promised us that He will be faithful until the end of the age.

The Whole Armor of God10 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 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; 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.

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.

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.

Ephesians 6:16

Ephesians 6:16

“Shield of Faith” — In this message from Ephesians 6:10–16, we examined how faith protects the child of God against the “fiery darts of the wicked.” Just as warfare in history often left destruction behind, Satan's goal is to destroy peace, joy, homes, marriages, and fellowship with Christ. But God has given His people a shield: faith. We looked at what biblical faith is, where it comes from, how it grows, and why without faith we cannot stand in the spiritual battle.

Ephesians 6:16 with Pastor Greg Denham

Pastor Mike Jurek shares a compelling message on the Shield of Faith, reminding us that faith is more than belief, it's something we put into action every day. As we engage with God's Word and live it out, our faith is built and strengthened, giving us the ability to stand strong when challenges come our way.Even when life hits hard, this message highlights that we are not powerless. Through God, we can quench every fiery dart before it takes root in our hearts. Fear, anxiety, and discouragement don't have the final say. As we stay close to Him and link together in unity as the body of Christ, we become stronger, more resilient, and ready to advance in everything God has called us to do.#GoodHopeChurch #Faith #ShieldOfFaith #ArmorOfGod #VictoryInJesus #StayStrong #FaithJourney #JesusChangesEverything #ChurchOnlineSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/armor-4-mjGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

Pastor Corey Pond unpacks the powerful meaning behind the Shield of Faith in Ephesians 6 and challenges us to move beyond simply believing in God to actively living out that belief. Faith isn't just something we hold onto in theory, it's something we take up daily through obedience, trust, and action. As we grow in God's Word and apply it to our lives, our faith is strengthened and becomes a defense in the spiritual battles we all face.This message reminds us that we may not avoid every challenge, but through God's power, we can quench every fiery dart the enemy throws our way. Doubt, fear, anxiety, and discouragement don't have to take us out. When we walk closely with God and stand firm in faith, we protect our hearts and remain strong. And when we stand together as the body of Christ, united in faith, we don't just survive the battle, we advance.#GoodHopeChurch #Faith #ShieldOfFaith #ArmorOfGod #SpiritualBattle #JesusChangesEverything #FaithInAction #ChurchOnline #HopeInJesusSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/armor-4Giving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn

Pastor Mike Stevens dives into the significance of the Shield of Faith from Ephesians 6, showing how real faith goes beyond belief and becomes something we actively live out. It's not enough to hear God's Word, we are called to respond to it. As we consistently walk in obedience and trust, our faith grows stronger and equips us to stand firm in the middle of life's battles.This message brings encouragement that while we may face trials, we don't have to be defeated by them. Through God's strength, we are able to quench every fiery dart, whether it's fear, doubt, or discouragement. When we position ourselves in Him and stay rooted in faith, we remain protected and steady. And as we stand together in unity, the Church becomes stronger and continues to move forward with purpose.#GoodHopeChurch #Faith #ShieldOfFaith #ArmorOfGod #SpiritualGrowth #StandFirm #JesusChangesEverything #FaithOverFear #ChurchOnlineSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/armor-4-msGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

The sermon emphasizes the necessity of relying on the shield of faith to withstand spiritual attacks, drawing primarily from Ephesians 6 and Hebrews 11. It strongly critiques the prosperity gospel by highlighting that biblical heroes of faith often endured suffering, persecution, and illness rather than material blessing or physical healing. The speaker clarifies that Jesus' earthly healings fulfilled prophecy but do not guarantee immediate physical cure for believers today. True faith is defined not as a mechanism to control circumstances but as trust in God's Word despite adverse conditions. The central message encourages Christians to stand firm against the flood of evil through unwavering trust in divine promises rather than visible outcomes.
