Psalms 107:19-21 / Romans 12:1

WHY did Paul urge us to offer:

1. Our body as a Living Sacrifice

2. Holy
3. Pleasing to God

Ephesians 6:12 (KJV)

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against
powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual
wickedness in high places.

Ephesians 6:13 (KJV)

13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to
withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Armour of God (Ephesians 6:14-17)

1. Belt of Truth
2. Breastplate of Righteousness
3. Sandal with the Gospel of Peace
4. Shield of Faith
5. Helmet of Salvation
6. Sword of the Spirit
 EPHESIANS 6:14-17

Ephesians 6:14-17 (KJV)

14 Stand therefore, having your loins grit about with truth, and having on the
breastplate of righteousness; 15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the
gospel of peace; 16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able
to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17 And take the helmet of salvation,
and the sword of the spirit, which is the word of God:

2 Chronicles 7:14 (KJV)

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray,
and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven,
and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
