Discuss Ephesians 6 Page 4

  • Donna - 2 years ago
    Lord help us each one to get up and arm ourselves with Your Word this day. Help us to put on the armor Your Word has instructed us to put on. That we could have swift answers to our prayers and dilemmas. And healings without hinderance. I Pray Lord move in every prayer request and need on these pages today, in Jesus name.

    The devils kingdom is really hoping that we will NOT put on the whole Armor of God today. So that we will be easy prey on the spiritual battlefield.

    Ephesians 6:11

    Get up and kick some spiritual booty today brothers and sisters in Christ! Be strong in His might! Do it His way and trust Father to work out the details.

    Ed,

    I can say with complete confidence that the answer is yes, a murderer can be forgiven. Jesus says all manner of sin can be forgiven, and since murder is sin, it would be included in "all manner." The only sin that a person can never receive forgiveness for is when God sends His Spirit to testify to that person, showing them their sinful state, and their need to be redeemed, their need to surrender their life to Christ, if a person rejects that testimony, they will never be forgiven for that.

    In Luke 23:34, when Jesus was on the cross, He said, "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do." The fulfillment of that prophecy is from Psalm 22:18. But Jesus is saying Father forgive them for they don't know what they're doing. We know in Ephesians 6:12, Paul said that we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against evil spiritual forces in the spirit realm. It is not people. It is Satan using people.

    In John 15:18, Jesus said the world hated me so you know the world is going to hate you. And this prayer of Jesus "Father forgive them for they know not what they are doing" was actually answered in Acts Chapter 2, the very first sermon given by Peter after the coming of the Holy Spirit.

    Peter said this Jesus (whom you crucified). He is talking to the very people that were there when Jesus was crucified. Were they forgiven? I would say yes because we are told that several thousand souls were saved. The Lord's prayer "Father forgive them for they know not what they do" was answered!

    And on Pentecost the gospel was preached and they received the very one that they crucified as their Savior.

    Dear God, Father in Heaven, You who have created Heaven and Earth, and all living. That who are on Earth, even them in the invisible, You have created. Thank You that we can come to You in Jesus' Name. That we can hide in Him who has passed through Heaven and Earth. Jesus who is our Advocate, our Savior and Redeemer before You God Almighty. Thank you that You can comfort us with Your Word every day, every hour we can seek You. Let all people who seek You find peace in heart and mind. Let us also have the certainty of salvation so that we do not waver. Strengthen us all in Your Holy Word which is a living sword!

    Ephesians 6:14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

    15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

    16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

    17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

    18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

    19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,

    Thank you Lord Jesus Christ for these words that show us the way to deliverance of all kinds, Amen.

    The most important thing for you friend is that you always use God's Word. (Because the spirits make fun of your words). And mine too. Find those words in Scripture that you really understand the meaning of.

    If you have accepted Jesus Christ, or not, you can call on His name at all times, also remind devilish spirits that they are subject to Jesus and in His sacrifice it gave you salvation from the sins you committed before you came to the Lord with them. Never let a tormentor torment you with this. Cast that spirit from you into the uttermost abyss in the holy name of Jesus Christ Amen. Jesus loves

  • Learn How To Fight the Devil and Be Strong in Faith - In Reply on Psalms 103 - 2 years ago
    Everything negative that results in unbelief in what Scripture, is at WAR with your mind and faith in God. If Satan is going to always attack our faith in God.

    You need to understand what Jesus did after Adam and Eve sinned. They lost their dominion and authority to exercise it, to Satan.

    Jesus would retrieve it in the future. He set aside his power, to be born as a Human. EARTH WAS MADE FOR HUMANS. Only a human could redeem it. Satan did not know what God was doing. When Jesus was anointed in Luke 4:18-19, His ministry began. He had all of His Powers returned to Him. He healed people, cast out demons. He had all AUTHORITY and POWER to do miracles. Satan was stripped.

    Jesus IMPARTED THAT AUTHORITY into BELIEVERS only. His followers who received His Baptism of the Holy Spirit ( John 3), have the authority of Jesus to do the same things Jesus did: heal, bind and cast out devils/demons; cleanse the afflicted, raise the dead (spiritually). Concentrate on what Jesus did and imparted into His FOLLOWERS. Our FAITH IN JESUS is our strength to maintain our peace and healing.

    Satan attacks our faith. HE IS NOT HUMAN. He has no authority to attack believers. But he still tries. He wants DOUBT to threaten and SHAKE OUR FAITH IN JESUS. If you let DOUBT enter your mind, it brings in other spirits to destroy your faith.

    Our faith is precious to God. Turn back to when your faith was new & strong. Stand on Gods WORD. As Jesus taught, BIND THE ENEMIES and CAST THEM INTO OUTER DARKNESS.

    Kick out DOUBT. Stand on Scriptures. Ephesians 6: scriptures are your SWORD. Enemies of your Faith are INVISIBLE. Perceive their Fruits: doubt, sickness, perversion, destroyer of faith. Ask Holy Spirit to give you the names. Only Bible will feed your faith. TV will erode it. Google Spiritual Warfare to learn how to fight back

    Jesus sits at the right Hand of God, interceding for us. He wants us to prevail and have what we pray for.

    Pray at all times. Be strong.

  • Richard H Priday on Ephesians 6 - 2 years ago
    Ephesians 6-The full armor of God

    No passage can be isolated and read alone in scripture; without at least being seriously short as to its full meaning. Ephesians 6 is no exception. It is therefore; no coincidence that the previous chapter discusses the family unit as an example of the structure of the church as well as the rest of the book the concepts of heavenly places.

    Verse 9; albeit particularly controversial in today's culture; discusses human masters and compares it to our Master in heaven. This is a key term; almost totally ignored among preachers and laypeople alike in reference to our Lord and Savior. I only know one brother who would routinely pray with that mindset which is truly a sad observation.

    Verses 11 through 13 talk about standing in His might. We are reminded of Psalm 1:5 as to the state of the wicked in judgment; surely we also will fall if not fully grounded in the Word.

    Verses 14 and 15 bring up both having the truth (as opposed to a false) as a mindset; with verse 15 being prepared to speak the gospel of peace (as we see in 2 Tim. 4:2).

    Verse 16 on the shield of faith implies utilizing and TRUSTING in God to get us through all circumstances (see 1 Cor. 10:13; Proverbs 3:5-6). He is able to keep us out of temptations and is trustworthy.

    Verse 17 shows us where our headship in Christ also protects us from fatal attack. The Word of God isn't exactly a surprise here as to the only offensive weapon; but greatly compromised among many who endeavor to preach the Gospel. We must meditate on it as well as know how to apply scripture in given situations as the Lord leads us to do ( Mark 13:11).

    Verse 18 on gets to the last theme; prayer for the saints including Paul which shows that leadership needs to pray for laypersons and vice versa. This certainly is something that many churches need to address more fully ( James 5:16). I honestly don't know any pastors that have asked for prayer to preach more boldly.

  • Ronnette - In Reply on Matthew 24 - 2 years ago
    Hello Mr. Adam Clark:

    God is a God of numbers. In Matthew and Mark, God was speaking to the Jews about the end time.

    Matthew 24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) Mark 13:14 But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains: I agree with you about Jeremiah. I also put in bold letters key words, Jeremiah 25:11 And this whole land shall be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years. Jeremiah 25:12 And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, saith the LORD, for their iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans, and will make it PERPETUAL desolations. Jeremiah 29:10 For thus saith the LORD, That after seventy years be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place. Daniel 9:24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in EVERLASTING righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to ANOINT THE MOST HOLY. I agree with you about Daniel 9:24 speaks about Jesus. It may very well be a double applications. The next verse 25 is saying the going forth to restore and to build Jerusalem seven weeks=49 years, and threescore and two weeks=434 years. Then v26 talks about the flood as in Rev 12:15-16 Rev 11:2; 13:5 talks about 42 months that equates to 3.5 years within the 70th week=7 years in v27 (49+434+7=490). The saints are no longer exist here as stated in 1 Thessalonians 5:9. 2 Thessalonians 2:2-3. Acts 20:28; Ephesians 6:18; 1 Thessalonians 2:19. BeComforted.

  • Jesse - In Reply on 2 Corinthians 4 - 2 years ago
    John,

    I think that if a believer strives to feed the spirit, keep his/her focus on Christ, remain in submission to Christ, that believer does well.

    As far as fighting the devil, my thoughts are that we don't have to fight the devil because he's already been defeated. We are told in Ephesians 6:11 to stand against the wiles (schemes) of the devil, not fight, but stand. Why? Because our position is in Christ at the right hand of the throne of God in the spirit realm!

    My understanding of 2 Corinthians Chapter 4 is that the entire chapter is talking about ministry.

    I have broken this chapter down into 3 Chapter Outlines in my Bible as such:

    2 Corinthians 4:1-6 gives us the philosophy of ministry.

    2 Corinthians 4:7-15 talks about the plan in ministry.

    2 Corinthians 4:16-18 is the perception of ministry.

    But you are correct about feeding the spirit and not the flesh. We are to deny our fleshly desires if we want to be disciples of Jesus Christ. Feeding the spirit is what produces growth in the believer. It also shows our love for Christ!

  • Chris - In Reply on Revelation 1 - 2 years ago
    Hello Edith. Revelation 1:16 is but one verse within the whole Book of the Revelation given to the Apostle John, to record what he sees ( Revelation 1:19). And what the risen Lord Jesus revealed to him in this verse was a part of how Jesus appeared to him (vv 13-16).

    In verse 16, John saw seven stars in Jesus' right Hand. We understand that these stars represented the angels (possibly, the leaders) of the seven Churches (the golden candlesticks) in Asia Minor (Turkey): v 20. These were real assemblies of believers in those seven cities & were precious to the Lord, as is indicated by His position amongst them & having them close to Him (in His right Hand). Yet, as we read in the following chapters, not all of them were pure in His Sight & they would be judged & disciplined. Yet the Lord would persevere with them (as He does with us when we go astray) as He also did with Israel, when the promise was given them, "Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God." ( Isaiah 62:3).

    John also saw a sharp two-edged sword proceeding from Jesus' Mouth. This is the primary weapon that Jesus uses to subdue His enemies (maybe at that great final battle). We know that the sword is often used to denote the Word of God ( Ephesians 6:17; Hebrews 4:12; Revelation 19:13). And God's Word is Truth - it is pure, it cuts & divides, it converts, it blesses. No enemy, both now & in that final day, will be able to withstand God's Truth. Where they once rejected it, even rejecting God's Word made flesh, they will feel the keenness of the 'blade' & will fall, succumbing to the power of that Word. Even Satan flees when God's Word is brought to bear upon him.

    And Jesus' countenance appeared to John as the midday Sun in its zenith. One can imagine John turning away from such Brightness. As we read in Malachi 4:2, "the Sun of righteousness" arises to heal those who fear Him, but will also burn the chaff into ashes of those who do wickedly.

    Dear John, in peace, think of everything eval we humans can do. But when we talk about the evil one, we know that he exalted himself and wanted to be God. Ezekiel 28:12-16 Why the Lord has given us satan as an image: Will probably come from the fact that we shall not believe that we are anything other than what we are, gems refined and taught by the Holy Spirit. Who dares and questions the Lord? Then put on your humble garment, as you want the Lord to teach you. Immerse yourself in the scriptures to be Responsive. It is God who is perfect, remember that we are, like ants Isaiah 66:1. But many of David's hymns say how energetic and happy the singer is to belong to the Lord. Example: Psalms 29 There is a lot of good warrior power in the hymns. Psalms 28. Praise, prayer, and thanksgiving are a great start.

    It is a joy to belong to the Lord, He has already found a way out for us. So that All who believe in His Name will be saved.

    1 Corintihans 10:13 The Word of God is the only weapon we have against the evil one. Jesus himself had to use the word against him in Matthew 4:1-11 My Bible is not hiding in a drawer and is not hidden away.

    For me, this was a turning point. For i understood quite quickly that here it was spirit powers that would prevent / bind me into shame / bondage. Where i am, the Word of God is with, you do not know right when you meet a person who ponders something about the Lord :) It is also openly located on the kitchen table or in the living room. The Bible is my favorite, Number One, it's where we get to know the Lord, Each and every one of us Jesus believers must find out what is best for ourselves.

    1 John 2:20-27 And do all things to the glory of God with a clear conscience. But never be ashamed, you have the Living God with you and He has all power in Heaven and on Earth! All we have to do is believe in Jesus Christ.

    Then everything else comes into place as we go. Learn by heart scriptures that strike back. Romans 1:16-17 Ephesians 6:10-20 GB

  • The Temptation of Suicide - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Crystal, I would ask you (or if you are asking about someone else)

    If a person feels that strongly, why not give your life to Jesus and see what He will do with it?

    He knows every circumstance that created the sorrow within a person. He can turn it around for good; if you can give it to Him.

    I went through it. Death looked like a warm fluffy blanket to wrap myself in; not have to experience deep sorrow. Jesus pulled me out of that hole. Told me every day in the Bible, I was loved and accepted in the Beloved.

    I was so lonely. I asked Him for new friends__Christians. My life was flooded with new friends. They took me to their Church. I was intrigued by the love they gave to all people. Even tearful me. I sang their songs as my life was healed. I switched from being a taker, and became a Giver.

    Take the Lords hand and never look back.

    See it's in the valleys of life, that the devil tries to keep us a prisoner. If you'll just climb up to the top of that valley, you'll see a new view. Light and possibilities.

    Throw out all the things that remind you of the past.

    We go from living for earthly life, to looking forward to eternity; with the Lover of our soul. He will lift you up.

    Ephesians 6: your true enemies are invisible. Cast them into outer darkness, in the Name of Jesus; by His Power and Authority.

  • Chris - In Reply - 2 years ago
    I wouldn't agree to that statement, Teresa. Sin, in all its forms, intensities & sneaky ways, somehow manages to affect each one of us so furnished with the sin nature. Even when we think that we might have overcome all sin, we will soon be disappointed to find that we have slipped up somewhere. Anything not of God, not found within His Holiness & Perfection, has the potential to become sin to us when allowed to manifest itself. Many ascetics, monks, & such like have tried to achieve perfection or even a 'nirvana', but have to admit that they have 'slipped up' along the way & perfection is not achievable in this life.

    That is why the Apostle Paul, in his letters, teaches & encourages all to crucify the flesh (to put to death sin that comes from our sinful nature with our "affections & lusts") & to live & walk in the Spirit ( Galatians 5:24,25). Sin is always near our 'door', ready to trip us & entrap us - if we're walking in the Spirit, we will be sensitive to sin & its approach, but being human means that we will also fail at times. Our walk will always be one of warfare - of being ever-conscious of sin's insidious ways to attack us. We have been given the Holy Spirit to make us alert to it & also His Armor to combat the enemy ( Ephesians 6:11-18), but all that is of no use, if we want to give in to sin & partake of its temptations. Yet, in all this, God is ready to forgive us when we slip up & He will restore us when we confess our error & seek to live for Him ( 1 John 1:9).

    So even by reading the Bible all day & following the commands of the Lord, we still need to be on the alert because sin is ever ready to rear its ugly head. "Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall" ( 1 Corinthians 10:12), is an ever-present reminder never to think that we've made it to perfection, but to "take heed" - to be careful in every aspect of our lives before God.

    Dear BILL WHITTINGHILL, in peace, yes it was a mistake, if u read further u will find that God Himself regret that He made human.

    Genesis 6:6 And today we are the chosen one too set thing in order. Example 1 Peter 2:6 John 14:6 Make ppl see Jesus Christ only in Him thru The Holy Goust can we see God. Many see a different God today, but are driven away, becouse of the eval who is in them and the eval in the spiritual world, who every one not see. Ephesians 6:12-19 W e all need to come thru in Jesus.

    I know nice ppl who have going too church for 40 years and they have the holy spirit in one way, but are bounded in television and work. I belive that God have a place for them. What i try to tell is: Not everybody sees the Spirit of the Holy. And remember we have all different work in the Lord. 1 Corintihans 12 And in that the eval can grow if they dont stop it by a gift they have. A friend may se it and pray to stop it.

    Galatians 6:2

    Thats why Paul continue to tell us, dont give up! We must be standfast in the Word of God and dont complane. And Love Jesus and all ppl, and rases.

    I'm in the same boat you are. I have a woman I am trying to reconcile with that won't talk to me. Her mother is controlling of her and she lives in fear of me. She is stubborn and unapologetic. I am praying for you and your bf to get back together. God will make a way. For with God all things are possible. I am reminded of the story of the widow. No matter how many times she was told no she kept going back and asking for justice. In the same way Christ tells us to not give up praying for the one who we love. I feel a need to tell you God placed it in your heart let him do the work. It's hard to wait. God is it hard to wait, I have already waited almost six months and I say God where are you. God says right here. The Lord is with you. You have to trust He knows what he is doing. We as spirits fail at this but there is a verse in Ephesians 6:12. You are fighting a spiritual battle. Don't give into to what the devil wants. He wants to make you discourage and give up. We must stand together and not faint. For it is the devil tries to ruin. I stand in faith with you in Jesus name.

    Hi Laurie.

    Spiritual warfare.

    In Ephesians 6:11. we see mentioned the Armour of God and also the wiles of the Devil.

    Vs 11. "Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil."

    In Ephesians 6:12. Is where I believe you will find your answer.

    Vs 12. "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."

    It's what's behind the scene wickedness is what are at war with, whether the prince of this world, (Satan) his governing and influence on those in the flesh. On nations, People, other religions and Some Churches. False teachers is spiritual warfare against the truth. Ministers of Satan!! One way ou recognize them is they have no purpose but lure you away from the truth. The Armour of God protects us.

    Here's an example.

    Matthew 16:23. But he turned, and said unto Peter, GET THEE BEHIND ME, SATAN: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men. Jesus goes right to the source behind Peter.

    Also here.

    Acts 16:16-18. And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying:

    The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation.

    And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour.

    2 Corinthians 10:4-5.

    I hope this helps.

    God bless.
