2. STAND UP STAND UP FOR JESUS (GHS 233)

3. STAND UP, STAND UP FOR JESUS [GHS 233]1.
Stand up, stand up for Jesus!
Ye soldiers of the cross;
Lift high His royal banner,
It must not suffer loss:
From vict’ry unto vict’ry,
His army shall He lead,
Till every foe is vanquished,
And Christ is Lord indeed.

4. STAND UP, STAND UP FOR JESUS [GHS 233]2.
Stand up, stand up for Jesus!
The trumpet call obey;
Forth to the mighty conflict,
In this His glorious day;
Ye that are men now serve Him
Against unnumbered foes;
Let courage rise with danger,
And strength to strength oppose.

5. STAND UP, STAND UP FOR JESUS [GHS 233]3.
Stand up, stand up for Jesus!
Stand in His strength alone,
The arm of flesh will fail you,
Ye dare not trust your own;
Put on the gospel armour,
And watching unto prayer,
Where duty calls, or danger,
Be never wanting there.

6. STAND UP, STAND UP FOR JESUS [GHS 233]4.
Stand up, stand up for Jesus!
The strife will not be long;
This day the noise of battle,
The next the victor’s song;
To him that overcometh,
A crown of life shall be;
He with the King of glory
Shall reign eternally.

8. RECAP OF OUR LAST STUDY
From our last study, entitled “Believers’ responsibilities at home and at work”, we learnt that our Christianity should be visible at home and at work. Parents should lead their children to Christ, provide for, care for and correct them. Children should obey and honour their parents in the Lord. Employees must avoid eye service and do their work faithfully and diligently. Employers should love and help the less privileged; they should be humble and not lord it over those that are under them.

9. TODAY’S STUDY: LESSON 738: COMPLETE ARMOUR FOR SPIRITUAL WARFARE
MEMORY VERSE: …… “Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil” (Ephesians 6:11). TEXT: Ephesians 6:10-24

10. INTRODUCTION
Our passage of study admonishes Christians to “be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might” (Eph 6:10). We are awakened to the reality of spiritual warfare. The mission of the devil on earth is seeking “to steal, and to kill, and to destroy” (John 10:10). But God has given us weapons wherewith we can overcome the enemy. Therefore, we must fight courageously in the strength of the Lord.
QUESTION 1: Why should a believer be strong in the Lord? – 1 Peter 5:8,9; Eph 6:10-12

11. REALITY OF SPIRITUAL WARFARE Ephesians 6:10-12; 1 Peter 5:8,9
We are fighting a spiritual battle with the enemy who does not give up. His weapons or devices and strategies are known and varied. He used temptation against Joseph (Genesis 39:3-12), the love of the world against Demas (2 Timothy 4:10), sickness against Job (Job 2:1- 13), the love of money against Judas (Matthew 26:15), etc. To overcome, we must watch, pray and never play with sin.
QUESTION 2: What devices does the devil use to fight Christians today? – Gen 39:7; 1 Kgs 19:1-4; Pro 1:10-14; Mat 4:3,5,6,8,9

12. RESOURCES FOR OUR SPIRITUAL WARFARE Ephesians 6:13-20
God is aware of our constant battle against the forces of darkness, therefore He has given us resources for total victory. Six of such resources are listed in the passage: the girdle or belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, shoes of the gospel, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit. We are to crown these all with constant prayer, watching and perseverance.
QUESTION 3: Mention the pieces of the Christian armour and their significance – Eph 6:14-17; 1 Tim 3:7; Eph 2:8
QUESTION 4: Why do we need to pray for ministers? – 2 Thess 3:1,2

13. REASSURANCE OF GOD’S LOVE AND BENEDICTION Ephesians 6:21-24
We are reassured of God’s love and provision of conquering faith in the battle of life, as well as the grace “to help in time of need”. We also see how ministers should show love and commitment to the welfare of the brethren beyond preaching to them. Moreover, we see the importance of a balanced message: not lifting powers of darkness above the grace, love and comfort of God.
QUESTION 5: What can believers learn from Paul’s care for the Ephesian believers? – Eph 6:21-23; Prov 27:23

14. CONCLUSION
We are faced with constant battle against forces of darkness. We should not be ignorant; rather, we should be strong in the Lord to stand against the wiles of Satan. To be victorious, we must put on God’s complete armour, guard against satanic deception, be watchful and prayerful and rely upon the grace and comfort of God. Ministers should care for the flock beyond preaching to them. They should not exalt the devil above God’s care.

36. I believe in God the Father, Who created Heav’n and earth; Made the stars to shine so brightly, Gave each living thing its birth. I believe in God the Father, And in Jesus Christ His Son, Who was crucified on Calv’ry For the sins that all have done.

37. I believe He died, was buried, Rose again, no more to die; And ascending to His Father, Took His seat with Him on high. I believe in God the Spirit, Sent to us from Heav’n above, And the Church our blessèd Savior Hath redeemed by His great love.

38.  I believe in His forgiveness, And His wondrous power to save; In a glorious resurrection, And a life beyond the grave. I believe in God the Father, I believe in God the Son, And in God the Holy Spirit, Everlasting Three in One.
