In this episode, we’re diving into a unique perspective on being prepared for the financial battles you will face as we explore the connection between spiritual battles and wise financial stewardship, empowering ourselves to honor God in every financial choice we make.

Just as athletes prepare meticulously before a big game, we too can equip ourselves for our financial challenges as we draw from the powerful description of spiritual armor outlined in Ephesians 6:10-18 and how it fortifies and prepares us in the face of financial challenges, temptations and trials.

Let’s ‘armor up’ and face our battles with confidence, knowing that with God’s armor, we are equipped for victory!



In this episode, John discusses:

  • Equipping for financial battles inspired
  • Unveiling the spiritual armor in financial battles
  • Six steps to financial preparedness and victory
  • Putting on the spiritual armor for financial well-being



Key Takeaways:

  • In financial battles, preparation is key, drawing parallels with the meticulous pre-game routines of professional athletes
  • The spiritual armor, as outlined in Ephesians 6:10-18, includes the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shoes of the gospel of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the spirit.
  • Wise financial choices are rooted in spiritual choices, and utilizing the spiritual armor and embracing these truths can help you navigate and win spiritual financial battles.
  • Just as football players wouldn’t enter a game without their gear, we shouldn’t face daily spiritual and financial battles without putting on the Armor of God for protection and guidance.

“When we can put on all the armor of God and use it in our financial choices, we not only safeguard our financial well-being, but we also deeply honor God, bringing Him glory in the process through our choices.”
