Piercing Darkness - wk3

"Engage in the Battle" - Ephesians 6:18-24

Have you ever experienced a time in life when the darkness just seemed overwhelming? How did you respond to that darkness? Paul tells us in Ephesians 6 that the first thing we must do is recognize that the enemy is not flesh and blood. Our enemy is real and his name is Satan. Last Sunday we learned that in order to prepare for our battle with Satan, we must put on the armor of God. This morning as we wrap up our sermon series “Piercing Darkness,” Paul gives us one last instruction for the battle we are facing. When we find ourselves under attack, our first response is often to talk to our enemy ... or at least to talk to someone about our enemy. But Paul tells us that when we find ourselves under attack we need to talk to Jesus, not the enemy.
