    Armor for Paul was more than pictures from daily life of the nearly omnipresent Roman legionaries. Very literally, the "whole armor of God" he describes is a picture of Jesus Christ.

    Satan, his demons, and the world around us all seek to activate our fallen flesh so that we are robbed of God's peace in our lives. We need to wear His peace because of the enemy we face! Remember, our enemy Satan opposes everything God does.

    Faith is the barrier behind which we stand and see all that Satan and his hosts throw at us is deflected and extinguished. Just as the Romans were undefeated as long as they employed the legionaries in battle using these shields, so Jesus always wishes to lead us in triumph as we walk by faith behind Him our shield and defender!

  • Resisting Satan's Attacks
    (#30)

    Date: Apr 15, 2007 | Passage: Mark 1:12-13

    Satan the enemy of God and man is alive and well on planet earth; but God's Word assures us that we are "more than conquerors through Christ". Satan is a defeated foe, a weakened adversary and crushed enemy. We have the victory through Jesus who lived the perfect life. Jesus left the perfect example. God's Word records the ultimate method for resisting Satan's attacks - the model Jesus left for us, the secret of how to resist the attacks of Satan like Jesus did.
