Stand Firm in the Full Armor of God - Ephesians 6:10-24

Nov 23, 2025    Andrew Kirschner

Ephesians concludes with a sobering truth: our real battle isn’t against people, but against spiritual forces of darkness. The armor of God isn’t symbolic—it’s the essential gear every believer needs to stand firm. We fight not in our own strength, but in the Lord’s resurrection power. Each piece of armor matters: truth keeps us steady, righteousness protects our hearts, the gospel of peace gives us firm footing, faith shields us, salvation guards our minds, and God’s Word becomes our weapon. Even Paul asked for prayer to speak boldly—proof that none of us fight alone. This passage reframes church, Scripture, and prayer as spiritual training grounds, shaping us into warriors who know how to wield the weapons God has given.
