The Armor of God: Part V

In this series, we’re discussing the armor of God. Paul references the final tool—the Word of God.

In Ephesians 6:17, Paul said, “Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.”

For twenty years, I’ve been writing these messages because I sincerely believe the Word of God is our best tool for the workplace.

The Bible is practical and applicable to daily business decisions. Note that out of all the pieces of armor, the sword of the Spirit is the only offensive tool mentioned.

When sensing that you’re under spiritual attack, quote and apply Scripture. It’s the best tool you have at your disposal. After all, it worked for Jesus in the desert.
