Use Your Shield and Sword – 2013 Rebroadcast

Hear the call to use your shield and sword in this battle against the forces of darkness.

Scriptures Used During Today’s Broadcast: Romans 12

Today’s message is from the book Pilgrim’s Progress and I’ll include an uncovering of three rogues we must face as Christian did in Pilgrim’s Progress. Hear the call to be a pilgrim too.

They were Faintheart, Mistrust, and Guilt. These are three true rogues. They will cause such anguish and pain in the heart of a Christian.

Faintheart will cause us to let our guard down, and Mistrust will steal everything he can steal from us, and then Guilt will come along and hit us over the head until we lay bleeding on the ground, about ready to give up.

Pastor Ray talking about three rogues who beat up Little Faith

So, go out armed. When you leave for work in the morning, don’t forget your shield. Take your shield with you. And I might say take your sword with you. Your sword is the word of God. Don’t go to work without your Bible.

Two basic principles from John Bunyan

The broadcast includes several powerful calls and a wonderful song by Huw Priday. Will you use your shield and sword as you journey toward the Celestial City? Have you put EVERYTHING on that altar of burnt offering, as described in Romans 12?
