THE ARMOUR
OF GOD IN
BOOK OF EPHESIANS
Goh Kng Yan
6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in
the Lord and in the power of His might…
OUR HEAVENLY FATHER BLESS US WITH EVERY
SPIRITUAL BLESSING…
• Eph 1:3 Blessed be the God
and Father of our Lord
Jesus Christ, who has
blessed us with every
spiritual blessing in the
heavenly places in
Christ,
• Chosen by the FATHER…v4
• Redeemed by the SON…v7
• Sealed by the SPIRIT…v13
AND MUCH MORE…
• Paul prayed…18 the eyes of your
understanding being enlightened; that
you may know what is the hope of His
calling, what are the riches of the glory
of His inheritance in the saints, 19 and
what is the exceeding greatness of His
power toward us who believe, according
to the working of His mighty power…
Gleanings from Book of Ephesians
• Our spiritual blessings and position in Christ, our walk and
our battle…
-SIT
-WALK
-STAND
SIT…SEATED IN THE HEAVENLY PLACES
• Eph 1:19 and what is the
exceeding greatness of His
power toward us who believe,
according to the working of His
mighty power 20 which He
worked in Christ when He
raised Him from the dead and
seated Him at His right hand in
the heavenly places,
• Eph 2:4 But God, who is rich in
mercy, because of His great love
with which He loved us, 5 even
when we were dead in
trespasses, made us alive
together with Christ (by grace
you have been saved), 6 and
raised us up together, and made
us sit together in the heavenly
places in Christ Jesus,
WALK
• Walk in UNITY
walk worthy of the calling with
which you were called, 2 with all
lowliness and gentleness, with
longsuffering, bearing with one
another in love, 3 endeavoring to
keep the unity of the Spirit in the
bond of peace.
• Walk in LOVE
Ep 5:5 Therefore be imitators of God
as dear children. 2 And walk in
love, as Christ also has loved us
and given Himself for us, an
offering and a sacrifice to God for a
sweet-smelling aroma.
• Walk in LIGHT
Eph 5:8 For you were once darkness,
but now you are light in the Lord. Walk
as children of light 9 (for the fruit of
the Spirit is in all goodness,
righteousness, and truth),
• Walk in WISDOM
Ep 5:15 See then that you walk
circumspectly, not as fools but as wise,
16 redeeming the time, because the
days are evil.
STAND…
• Eph 6:10 Finally, my brethren,
be strong in the Lord and in the
power of His might. 11 Put on
the whole armor of God, that
you may be able to
stand against the
wiles of the devil.
• Eph 6:12 For we do not wrestle
against flesh and blood, but
against principalities, against
powers, against the rulers of
the darkness of this age, against
spiritual hosts of wickedness in
the heavenly places. 13
Therefore take up the whole
armor of God, that you may be
able to withstand in the evil
day, and having done all, to
stand.
Armour of God
• Eph 6:14 Stand therefore, having
girded your waist with truth, having
put on the breastplate of
righteousness, 15 and having shod
your feet with the preparation of the
gospel of peace; 16 above all, taking
the shield of faith with which you will
be able to quench all the fiery darts of
the wicked one. 17 And take the
helmet of salvation, and the sword of
the Spirit, which is the word of God;
18 praying always with all prayer and
supplication in the Spirit, being
watchful to this end with all
perseverance and supplication for all
the saints
What Does the full Armour of God protect us
from?
• Eph 6:12 For we do not wrestle
against flesh and blood, but
- against principalities, (Col
2:15…disarmed by the Lord)
- against powers, (Eph 3:4,10…mystery
of Christ made known by the church)
- against the rulers of the darkness of
this age, (Luk 22:53…this is your hour,
the power of darkness)
- against spiritual hosts of wickedness
in the heavenly places…(Jude
1:6…Reserved for the day of
Judgment)
The SOLUTION
6:13 Therefore take up the
whole armor of God, that you
may be able to withstand in the evil day,
and having done all, to stand.
EVERY PART OF THE ARMOUR IS CHRIST!

are Abraham's descendants,
