Getting in Fighting Shape

Do you ever feel like life is one battle after another and you’re not sure if you have the strength to keep going?

In this message, Getting in Fighting Shape, we look at Paul’s words in Ephesians 6 and discover how to stand firm against the enemy’s attacks. The truth is, we’re all in a spiritual battle—whether we realize it or not. God has given us His armor so we can be prepared, protected, and powerful:

The belt of truth to hold everything together.

The breastplate of righteousness to guard our hearts from condemnation.

The boots of peace to stand firm and carry the gospel into the world.

The shield of faith to quench the fiery darts of fear, doubt, and lies.

The helmet of salvation to remind us of our secure identity in Christ.

The sword of the Spirit, God’s Word, as our offensive weapon.

This message challenges us not just to stand our ground but to go on offense—to fight back with God’s truth, to find our “verse of power,” and to live boldly on mission for Jesus.
