Armor of God
Protecting Yourself Against False Prophecies
In recent weeks Glory to the King Ministries and I personally have been attacked by a word that was given as a “prophecy”, but was definitely not of God. This kind of false word is one of the devil’s favorite tactics against God’s people. He well knows that a word given as “thus saith the Lord”, or that purports to speak with God’s voice, has far greater p read more
Walking in Peace
“and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.”
(Ephesians 6:15, NIV)
Often when people read this verse, they think it is talking about the preaching of the Gospel. Preaching and witnessing are important, and are most certainly a part of our spiritual warfare. However, these are offensive measures – tactics which we use to take territory from read more
The Shield of Faith
Paul tells us that part of the defensive armor that God has given us is the shield of faith – but what, exactly, is faith, and how can it be a shield for us? Is it, as so many have taught over the years, I kind of button that we push to get what we want out of God, whenever we want it? Is it simply the adherence to a correct set of doctrinal precepts?

Clothed in Jesus
“The night is nearly over; the day is almost here. So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light. Let us behave decently, as in the daytime, not in orgies and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and debauchery, not in dissension and jealousy. Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the sinful natur read more
Christ’s Righteousness Made Ours

The breastplate protected one of the most vital areas of the soldier’s body, guarding his he read more

Doctrine Matters
A little while ago I was invited to become part of an international ministry network. I visited their web site, and found information about the organization and its leaders, but nothing to indicate what they actually believed. When I enquired about this, I was told “We just preach the whole Gospel.”
Unfortunately, as I pointed out to them, the interpretation of what constitutes “ read more
Not Just a Talisman
“Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.” Ephesians 6:11 (NIV)
Down through the ages, many people have used talismans to protect them from the forces of evil. Even the cross has at times been used as a talisman, with the wearer believing that just by putting it on she is protected from whatever may come against her.
