Lesson 45
Cure For The Wounded Soldier MEMORY VERSE “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.” Ephesians 6:10 BIBLE PASSAGE: Ephesians 6:10-17 INTRODUCTION The Christian race, more often than not, is not a bed of roses. It may occasionally bring physical or spiritual wounds. God, however, has given us the equipment for victory. There is no need to be defeated because God has given us His word, which is all we need for victory. May the Holy Spirit grant the needed anointing to cure the wounded soldier, in Jesus' name. OUTLINES 1. DETERMINE THE SOURCE OF THE WOUND 2. STAND YOUR GROUND 3. LIVE HOLY 4. PUT ON THE WHOLE ARMOUR OF GOD 5. SHUN UNBELIEF AND DOUBT 6. CONFESS POSITIVELY 7. GIVE GLORY TO GOD DETERMINE THE SOURCE OF THE WOUND It is necessary to determine the source of the wound before having a feeling of disappointment, depression, dejection and so on. Satan is the source. He is a thief, destroyer and tempter – Jn.10:10; Job 2:7; Lk.4:5-8. STAND YOUR GROUND God's expectation for His children is to stand their grounds in whatever situations they may find themselves – Eph.6:13-14. Look unto Jesus only and not the wound – Heb.12:1-2. The wound is an evil report – Num.13:32 – and it may lead to depression. God's word gives the faith that you need to stand – Rom.10:18.
