The Shield of Faith | Spiritual Warfare Part IX
#spiritualwarfare #armorofgod #faith
Ephesians 6:16 V16 In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one.
In this study we examine in detail the shield of faith. Faith extinguishes the enemy’s flaming arrows.
We need to expect attacks and counterattacks. The devil is wily and his schemes and attacks are varied and broad.
The Athenian general Thucydides stated in his writings that the leather coating of each shield was soaked in water before the battle. This neutralized the flaming arrows of the enemy. In the same way, we need to soak our faith in the living water. Paul clearly says that our shield, faith, is capable of extinguishing all the flaming arrows.
1 Peter 5:8-9 Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith.
Join us as we examine this crucial piece of spiritual armor!
