In this 4-part series, Dr. Michael Youssef proclaims the unchanging truth of Ephesians 6, calling believers to stand firm in the strength of the Lord. God has supplied His children with every piece of spiritual armor needed to live worthy of His call and to withstand the assaults of Satan. From the belt of truth to the sword of the Spirit—and through the lifeline of prayer in the Spirit—you will learn how to resist demonic forces, guard your heart with righteousness, and advance the Gospel without compromise. This powerful series will equip you to face every battle with confidence in God’s Word, for His glory, and for the salvation of the lost.

In this powerful third message from The Full Armor of God, Dr. Michael Youssef calls believers to take up the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit with unwavering readiness. Teaching from Ephesians 6:16–17, he warns that neglecting God’s Word leaves Christians defenseless against Satan’s flaming arrows—lies, doubts, and temptations designed to destroy faith. True faith is a daily trust in the risen Christ, not a one-time decision. The helmet guards our assurance in God’s saving power, while the sword—the inerrant, Spirit-breathed Word of God—is our weapon to defend truth and cut through darkness. Dr. Youssef urges repentance, steadfast prayer, and bold confidence in Christ for victory in the spiritual battles ahead.
