Book Description
Spiritual warfare in the life of the Christian is a constant battle. We are never free from the battles that rage in our flesh, our mind, the world, or in the spiritual realm where Satan rules supreme as the power of darkness and sin. In God’s wisdom, He has made provision for the Christian to avoid many battles, to be victorious in those battles we must confront, and to live an effective, joyful life for Christ. That provision is the armor of God. In this book you will learn important facts about the sources of our battles and about each piece of armor. However, the story does not end with simply providing information. You will learn, from Scripture, how to put on the armor God has provided for you. Without wearing God’s armor, you leave your spiritual life exposed to temptations and battles, which you will needlessly have to fight. Putting on the whole armor of God will divert Satan’s attacks in order to continue serving God without being sidetracked from your primary mission of glorifying God. You will still face battles and temptations wearing your armor. The difference is that His armor will help you handle them in such a way that you grow through them instead of losing the battles and yielding to temptations.

Book Description
“A battle manual for every Christian.” —Sinclair B. Ferguson The Christian life is a battle. We are in a daily struggle against the world, sin, and Satan. But God didn’t leave us to fend for ourselves. He gave us his own armor—armor that Jesus has already worn on our behalf all the way to the cross. The same power that raised Christ from the dead is now at work inside of us. This book unpacks each of the pieces of spiritual armor Paul describes in Ephesians 6, inviting us to take up the armor each day, all while resting in the finished victory of Christ and the assurance that our strength for the battle comes from him.

Book Description
"Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil" What are the pieces of the spiritual armor? Why is it vital that we wear each piece? In Ephesians 6:10-20, the apostle Paul likened the life of the Christian to that of a Roman soldier in his day engaged in hand-to-hand combat. Of course, the war of the Christian is a spiritual one, not literal. Nevertheless, the enemies of Christ are very real. Satan and his demons are skilled demonic warriors with great powers, possessing thousands of years of experience. Some Christians may feel that our hope of surviving against a demon is very bleak. New Christians and young Christians may appear to be vulnerable to such powerful forces. How is it possible to win a war against superhuman, wicked demonic forces? The fact is, we can win such a war. Because we can "be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might." Moreover, we do more than draw on the power of God. Paul has shown us how we are to dress for battle. We can become like well-trained soldiers, who have "Put on the full armor of God." PUT ON THE FULL ARMOR OF GOD: The Demands of Spiritual Warfare will analyze the armor piece by piece in the greatest detail to reveal how God provides protection from every attack of the enemy.

Book Description
The clarion call has sounded and all creation are waiting patiently for the manifestation of the sons of God. We are living in perilous times as prophesied years ago. All the events happening in the world today, points to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Darkness, which is symbolic of evil, has covered the whole earth and gross darkness has covered the people. But the glory of God has risen upon His people to do exploits if only they will arise and shine as the light of the world. Evil has covered all the nations of the earth and terror is raging like fire to consume anything that stands in its way. Terrorist groups like Isis, Aqueda, Boko Haram and many others are threatening to destroy humanity. Racial tension is increasingly mounting in the United States of America and many other Nations where citizenship is not unilateral. Terror and fear has gripped many people and they are quivering uncontrollably. Uncertainty is the order of the day as many Nations are falling apart economically. National security, safety and peace in many countries seems to be a fleeting illusion. All these activities are the orchestrations of the enemy, the Devil, who is bent on destroying the human race by any means necessary. But God, the Creator of the heavens and the Earth, has raised an army of Soldiers in Christ to counteract the activities of the enemy and his cohorts. As the light and salt of the world, Christians are to preserve the sanctity of society by prohibiting, disallowing, binding and denying anything that doesn't line up with the word of God. In the same vein, we are to allow, loose, permit and release all things that are consistent with the word of God. We are the only ray of hope in this evil and dark world that we are living. Unfortunately, many Christians are not aware of who they are and therefore, they are not utilizing the authority Christ died to make available to them. Many are not aware of the power of the resurrection of Christ Jesus; what it has done for them and what is expected of them as Christians. God purposed, before the foundations of the world, to use Christians to overthrow and confound the powers that rules over the darkness of this world. In view of this, God instituted spiritual warfare in the beginning of time to empower Christians to take back the authority which Satan usurped on earth. Therefore, dear brothers and sisters in Christ, let us rise up, take our positions and shine in these last days to prepare the way for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Let us combat the evil forces of darkness vehemently to preserve the sanctity of society because God is counting on us. In this book, you will be illuminated and empowered to take your rightful place on earth as a soldier of Christ and do exploits simply because you know who you are and whose you are.
