GIFTS – PART ONE HUNDRED-FORTY-ONE
ARMOR OF GOD – PART EIGHTY-THREE
PRAYING ALWAYS
Ephesians 6:18 (KJV)
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
Greetings dear and precious saints of the only Living God, who wants nothing but good for all peoples and has paid the price for abundant and eternal life for all. Unfortunately, many, the majority, on the earth chose to reject our good God and serve lifeless idols and themselves. Thinking they are wise have become fools.
Romans 1:20-22 (KJV)
20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
We must be diligent to pray for all, Hell is too awful for anyone.
2 Timothy 2:24-26 (KJV)
24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
This is the prayer of intercession. Someone interceded for each of us, let us do the same pulling who will from the fire. Before moving into our primary lesson please take a moment and share this teaching by every means available to you expanding our reach with the Truth. Thank you for sharing. I have been teaching for quite some time on the “Gifts” we, the children of God, receive of God. Most recently, eighty-three weeks, I have been teaching on the Armor of God. The Apostle Paul by the will of God, the Holy Spirit, has named seven pieces of aspects of this armor which is defensive and offensive. Remember this is far, far more than imaginary pieces of Roman armor but bodies of revelation knowledge that we exercise by faith, in love, absent doubt, in the name of Jesus, led of the Holy Spirit. This armor has no match, not even close.
Ephesians 6:10-13 (KJV)
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
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.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
We are very prone to put our troubles on flesh and blood, and of course many times people are involved but only as led, deceived of the demons. It is the devils behind the people that we must exercise our authority over and release the Power of God against all the while interceding for the people. Let’s review the six pieces of armor we have discussed to date.
Ephesians 6:14-17 (KJV)
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:
Verse eighteen introduces us to the seventh piece of the armor of God which is prayer. Prayer is not begging.
Ephesians 6:18 (KJV)
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
Lord willing, I will pick up right here next Friday.
2 Chronicles 20:20 b (KJV)
20 … Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.
Receive the blessing in Jesus’ name!
Numbers 6:24-26 (MSG)
24 GOD bless you and keep you,
25 GOD smile on you and gift you,
26 GOD look you full in the face and make you prosper.
