Call of Duty Pt 9 The Sword of the Spirit
Jan 18, 2026 • Bruce Dixon
Pastor Bruce draws from Ephesians 6 as part of the Call of Duty series. Using the soldier and armor image, he reviews the belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness, shoes of peace, shield of faith, helmet of salvation, and then focuses on the sword of the Spirit. He compares learning the Bible to military training. You must know your weapon to use it. He warns that too few people read the Bible daily and says a dull sword leaves us exposed.
You will hear examples from David’s mighty men and practical steps for using scripture in real life. The message is plain: read the Word, memorize it, speak it, and let the Spirit use it. This sermon aims to sharpen faith and help you take ground back from fear, doubt, and trouble.
