Ephesians 4:17–5:2 What should the Christian walk look like? How does your faith make a difference to your every day life, and how the life of your church? We must ‘put off’ our old way and ‘put on’ our new self
Ephesians 6:10-23 For many Christians spiritual warfare is about the sensational world of deliverance ministries and naming demons and driving them out of believers. But that is not the spiritual warfare we find in the New Testament letters. Instead it’s about putting on the armour God has provided for everyday Christian living. That is how we stand firm against the forces of evil.
Are you feeling discouraged at the moment? Perhaps weighed down by past failures, or struggling with present difficulties, or worried about future uncertainties. Imagine getting home and finding on your answer-machine or voicemail a personal message of encouragement from God himself to you. That is what we have in this passage!
