This will be a great place to start for a study! :) Please read the scriptures, answer the questions and email them to your partners.

When we become a child of God, we not only inherits God's blessings but God's enemies as well. The Lord's foremost enemy is Satan, whose purpose is to destroy His work (John 8:44), but Jesus came in order to "destroy the works of the devil" (1 John 3:8).

Satan is a fallen angel (Is. 14:12-15) and as such is only a created being. He is in no way equal to God, the Creator. While Satan is superior in intellect and strength to mankind, he is inferior to God in every way. Believers have the power of the Holy Ghost to wach over them and protect them (1 John 4:1-4).

In addition, believers have been given the whole armor of God "to stand against the wiles of the devil" (Eph 6:11). Each piece of armor is to be "put on" to help believers overcome the temptations and attacks of the Evil One.

Read Ephesians 6:10-19

Each piece of armor has a significant underlying meaning, write why each piece is important.

•Having Girded Your Waist with Truth (v 14)

•Having Put on the Breastplate of Righteousness (v 14)

•Having Shod your Feet with the Preparation of the Gospel of Peace (v 15)

•Taking the Shield of Faith (v 16)

•Take the Helmet of Salvation (v 17)

•Take the Sword of the Spirit (v 17)

In verse 18 it says "Praying always", why is it important to be continually praying? (James 5:16)

What has stood out to you the most through your study of this scripture?
