Righteous Weapons?


“–giving no cause for offense in anything in order that the ministry be not discredited, but in everything commending ourselves as servants of God, in much endurance, in afflictions, in hardships, in distressed, in beatings, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in sleeplessness, in hunger, in purity, in knowledge, in patience, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in genuine love, in the Word of Truth, in the power of God; by the weapons of righteousness,” from II Corinthians 6:1-10

“Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of His might. Put on the full armour of God, that you may be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil.” Ephesians 6:10-11

These weapons are seen to be of two types: those weapons supplied by God as a result of justification and weapons of personal integrity with our walk with the Lord once we are His...

“And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.” Ephesians 6:17

Know His Word. Take care. Your servant & friend in Christ, Darlene

PS: New Prayer Request: Audley’s mother died, he’s travelling home to be with family. Ongoing prayer requests: Australians recovering from natural disasters of fires and floods, emergency and support workers still labouring. Marilu –pregnant in hospital, must lay still, on her side for months to save her unborn. God’s hands on new USA political administration. Barb and Gary to find new, satisfying jobs; wisdom for doctors caring for Doris, Michael, David and Adrian. Randy’s family moving to Canada. New work projects for me. Praise: Lyle’s brother (healing well) and girlfriend (who’s stayed with him throughout entire ordeal).
