In the final message of our At War series, we discover how to stand firm in the spiritual battles of everyday life. From Ephesians 6:10–20, we learn that the armor of God is the Gospel applied to every area of our lives. Through truth, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation, God’s Word, and prayer, we fight from victory, not for victory knowing our strength isn’t found in ourselves, but in the Lord and His vast strength.

When the king's decree made prayer illegal, Daniel did what he had always done. He opened his windows toward Jerusalem, knelt three times a day, and gave thanks. This message from Daniel 6 confronts the battle for your witness reminding us that faithfulness is rarely forged in the crisis; it is revealed there. The habits of devotion formed long before the pressure arrives determine what your life will say about God when the cost rises. Which way are the windows of your devotion opened?

If there is a war, then there is an enemy. If there is an enemy, then the enemy has a strategy. And if the enemy has a strategy, then we had better understand how he operates. Paul says in 2 Corinthians 2:11 that we should not be ignorant of Satan’s schemes. That word “schemes” speaks of his methods. Satan is not creative. He has been running the same play for thousands of years. And if you want to understand the schemes of Satan, if you want to get a peak at his playbook to understand how he attacks the people of God, you do not have to look any further than Genesis 3. Because the first recorded words of Satan in the Bible reveal his strategy: "Did God really say?" His first attack was an attack on God’s Word because Satan knew that if he could get us to question what God had said, he could get us to eventually disobey what God had commanded.

In the introductory message of our new series “At War,” Pastor Randy Norris unpacks Ephesians 6:10-12 and reveals the spiritual battle raging behind every struggle we face. In this passage, we’re reminded that our greatest fight is not against flesh and blood, but against unseen spiritual forces. Discover how to open your eyes, stay close to Jesus, and fight from the victory Christ has already won. Our enemy is strong. But greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world!

Where are you going? If you keep the same priorities, the same habits and the same spiritual disciplines that you have right now, where will you be in five years? Ten years? The end of your life? In this powerful message, we explore Philippians 3 and discover God’s call to move towards Christlikeness, forward in faith, and outward on mission. Everybody gets somewhere. Only a few get there on purpose.
