Speaker: Lead Pastor Mike Vargo
Text:
“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. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, 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,” (Ephesians 6:13–18, ESV)
Digging Deeper:
1. In your own words describe temptation and explain whether it is sin or not?
2. How do you use the Word of God as a sword to defeat temptation? (Matt. 4:1-9)
3. How does memorizing Scripture aid you in overcoming temptation?
