Even in the midst of painful situations, the pain and punishment Jesus endured is more than enough for us. No matter what, Jesus is enough.

Considering the ongoing spiritual warfare, what practical steps can you take to equip yourself with the armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18)?

Summary

Hey there, friends! Today, Pastor Anthony from Our Savior's Church in Lafayette shared a powerful message titled Signed, Sealed, Delivered. He reminded us that no matter where we were born or raised, we are all in need of saving from our own craziness. Just like the church in Colossae, we often face false teachings and attacks from the enemy that try to steer us away from the truth of Jesus. But Pastor Anthony reassured us that Jesus is enough and He is all we need. He also reminded us that we are all part of a spiritual war and that we have been transferred from the kingdom of darkness to the kingdom of light through Jesus. This means we have God's protection and a purpose to share the gospel with others. Pastor Anthony also shared a powerful quote from Jesus about being sent into the world to fulfill our purpose. He encouraged us to remember that we are God's plan to reach those who don't know Him. Finally, Pastor Anthony reminded us of the magnitude of God's grace in our lives and how Jesus' victory over sin and death means we no longer have to walk in guilt, shame, and oppression. We have been set free and there is only one King - Jesus!
