Show by Melissa

You can read your Bible, memorize verses, and quote Scripture. But does that mean you know how to use it?As we close out our SUITED UP series, we're looking at the final piece of the armor of God: the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.And there's something fascinating about Jesus' encounter with the devil in Matthew 4.The devil quoted Scripture, too.He didn't make up a promise. He took something God actually said and tried to use it for a purpose God never intended.So if both Jesus and the devil were quoting Scripture, what made the difference?In this episode, we're exploring why understanding God's Word matters just as much as knowing what it says, how Scripture can challenge our own thinking, and why Paul follows his instructions about the armor with a call to prayer.And as we bring this series to a close, we'll return to the reminder that started it all:God never asked us to fight in our own strength. He told us to stand in His.So here's this week's question:Do you know how to use your sword?📖 Scripture: Ephesians 6:10–20; Matthew 4:1–11; Psalm 91:11–12; Deuteronomy 6:16; Hebrews 4:12🎧 New episodes every week.
