Why Christmas Means Destruction | Ben Stuart's Rest and War Bible Study - CLIP

Jesus explained his ministry this way: “When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own house, his possessions are safe. But when someone stronger attacks and overpowers him, he takes away the armor in which the man trusted and divides up his plunder” (Luke 11:21–22). He came to destroy the “strong one”—the devil—and set us free.

Life is hard, but there are promises to grip. Strategies and tactics to employ. Progress to be made. Are you ready?

The writer of Hebrews says that we are to “throw off everything that hinders” and run “the race marked out for us” (Hebrews 12:1). We are called to action and empowered to struggle well. And yet, as we navigate life, we realize there are difficulties without and discouragements within. Not only do we feel ill equipped to thrive . . . we don’t even know how to survive.

In this six-session study, Ben Stuart will give you practical strategies to help you war against the enemy of your soul and find the rest that God has promised for you. You will discover how to overcome deceptive strategies the enemy aims at you. How to move away from aimless affections and toward things that develop intimacy with God. How to make a place, a time, and a plan for communicating with God each day. And how to keep in step with the Spirit.
