God never told us to save our world or rescue society. That battle will leave us frustrated, confused, and angry. We must cling tightly to our Father and to His promise that He is in control and is working out ALL things according to His perfect plan.Frank Friedmann and John Russin

Economic crises. Wars and threats of war. Climate. Rioting. Racial tension. Corruption. Crime. Rising suicide rates. Believers everywhere ask, “What can we do?” Paul told us in Colossians 3:2 to set our minds on things above, not on things that are on the earth.Frank Friedmann and John Russin

Temptations to sin are offered to us by our enemy, who often masquerades as us and makes it difficult to recognize his voice.

Spiritual warfare bears no resemblance to what’s depicted in the media. It’s not a power struggle, with good and evil battling and the victor undecided. It’s a truth struggle, with the veracity of Father’s Word proving false all of the enemy’s lies.Frank Friedmann and John Russin

Often overlooked as a piece of armor, continual watchful prayer is a formidable weapon during times of spiritual warfare. It is mighty to tear down spiritual strongholds and it sharpens our discernment into both the wiles of our enemy and the needs of those around us.Frank Friedmann and John Russin

To stand against our enemy, we need the helmet of salvation and the word of God. The first gives us understanding into who we are in Christ, which protects how we think, feel, and choose. The other enables us to parry his cunning lies with the sword of the Spirit, Jesus Christ.Frank Friedmann and John Russin

The most adaptable piece of our armor is the shield of faith. Our faith doesn’t just deflect the enemy’s flaming darts; it extinguishes them. Positioning this shield correctly, that is, trusting God in every circumstance, we can minimize the suffering we receive at the hands of our enemy.Frank Friedmann and John Russin
  continue reading
 
As soldiers, we must always be prepared to do battle with the enemy. Our readiness depends on understanding the gospel of peace. This gospel is more than just forgiveness of our sins: it’s a comprehensive change in how we feel, think, and choose, a totally new way to live in Him.Frank Friedmann and John Russin

The breastplate of righteousness is a core aspect of our identity. In Christ, we’ve been made righteous, as approved and accepted as Jesus. This truth protects against a key attack by our enemy: the temptation to question who we are as believers.Frank Friedmann and John Russin
  continue reading
 
Our armament from God begins with the belt of truth, which is the most foundational piece. Knowing the truth about ourselves in Christ and about our enemy and his tactics is critical if we’re to live victoriously.Frank Friedmann and John Russin
  continue reading
 
Just because Father has given us His armor doesn’t guarantee it’ll do us any good. We must put it on, sink into it and see how well it fits. And then we must choose to use it. We’ll not be able to stand against the enemy unless we do.Frank Friedmann and John Russin
  continue reading
 
Because His children are in the enemy’s crosshairs, Father has already equipped every one of us with every spiritual blessing. In Christ, He has given us all we need to resist the devil and live our lives so that we honor Him and lift up one another.Frank Friedmann and John Russin
  continue reading
 
As good soldiers of Christ Jesus, we are to live as elite troops in Father’s kingdom, fully prepared to engage in our battle with the enemy. But to function that way, we first must fully understand and embrace authority.Frank Friedmann and John Russin

Full citizens of God’s spiritual kingdom, we are His official envoys to a foreign realm … the kingdom of darkness. Our role is to speak and act well on behalf of our home and lift up our Lord and King so that He will draw all people to Himself.Frank Friedmann and John Russin
  continue reading
 
As God’s heirs, we have immediate, perpetual access to all He is, all He has, and all He does to meet every need we have. We can experience today … right now … the full blessings of heaven through His life in us.Frank Friedmann and John Russin
  continue reading
 
When Father God adopted us into His family, He made us full sons, giving us all spiritual blessings and equipping us with all rights, privileges, and responsibilities. As sons, we must recognize Him as our Abba, the One Who loves us dearly and gives us only His best.Frank Friedmann and John Russin
  continue reading
 
Jesus cautioned that, unless we become as little children, we’ll not fully experience God’s kingdom (Matt. 18:3). We must change how we approach life so that our first response to every circumstance is to trust Our Father, Who has it all under control.Frank Friedmann and John Russin
  continue reading
 
Diakonos. Servant, one who does things to benefit others. Our Savior came to serve us in the ultimate way by willingly, joyfully give His life as ransom. Being a servant involves not only what you do but also your attitude while you’re doing it. This aspect is critically important.Frank Friedmann and John Russin
  continue reading
 
Doulos. Slave. Jesus emptied Himself, took the form of a slave, and did the will of His Father Who sent Him. The same applies to us. If we wish to bear fruit in Father’s kingdom, we too must choose to be slaves.Frank Friedmann and John Russin
  continue reading
 
Many believers define themselves by their behavior: because they commit sinful acts, they must be sinners. But God defines us by birth. We’re His children, His holy ones, who at times make poor choices. When we maintain that we’re sinners, we’re saying, “I know what Scripture says, but I know better.”…
  continue reading
 
Because the Lord, the Holy One, lives in believers, we can’t get any more sanctified in our identity. But we become more like the Lord in behavior as we walk in the Spirit. Then, what’s true about us on the inside becomes more evident on the outside.Frank Friedmann and John Russin

Ágios. Holy one. In His New Testament, Father calls us that nearly 60 times, so we won’t forget who we are in Him. He shares His holiness with us, so much so that He even calls us by the same word He uses to describe Himself … Holy.Frank Friedmann and John Russin
