Exercising Our Authority In Christ Jesus
Put on the Full Armor of God
Ephesians 6:10-18 - NLT
A final word: Be strong with the Lord's mighty power.
Put on all of God's armor so that you will be able
to stand firm against all strategies and tricks of the Devil.
For we are not fighting against people made of flesh and
blood, but against the evil rulers and authorities of the
unseen world, against those mighty powers of darkness
who rule this world, and against wicked spirits in the
heavenly realms.
Use every piece of God's armor to resist the enemy in the time of evil, so that after the battle you will still be standing firm. Stand your ground, putting on the sturdy belt of truth and the body armor of God's righteousness. For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News, so that you will be fully prepared.
In every battle you will need faith as your shield to stop the fiery arrows aimed at you by Satan. Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God. Pray at all times and on every occasion in the power of the Holy Spirit. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all Christians everywhere.
Luke 9:6 - NLT
So they began their circuit of the villages,
preaching the Good News and healing the sick.
Luke 9:10 - NLT
When the apostles returned, they told Jesus everything they had done.
Then He slipped quietly away with them toward the town of Bethsaida.
John 5:19, 20 - NLT
Jesus replied,
"I assure you, the Son can do nothing by himself.
He does only what he sees the Father doing.
Whatever the Father does, the Son also does.
For the Father loves the Son and tells him everything he is doing,
and the Son will do far greater things than healing this man.
You will be astonished at what he does."
