Spirit-Filled Prayer

Text: Ephesians 6:18-20
Intro: I’m not sure most believers really accept that we are engaged in battle with an unseen, but very powerful enemy. But that does not change the fact that we are.
Satan, the enemy of God, is also the enemy of God’s people. His desire is to defeat us, destroy us, and devour us. (1Pet. 5:8) Using what the NKJV calls “wiles”, and translates as “deceit and diabolical schemes”, in other words, Paul says, he seeks to trick us…! (James1:14) Satan is like a master hunter, or a master fisherman, he sets his traps, and baits his hooks. But we do not have to become victims of Satan’s traps and devices. (Eph. 6:13) I want to move to the final, and perhaps greatest, provision we have been given by the Lord, the provision of Spirit-Filled prayer.
