May 22, 2022 (Spring Quarter): Sunday School Lesson 12 - "Spiritual Weapons" (II Corinthians 10:1-12, 17-18). "This quarter we are going to take the opportunity to study the written correspondence between the church's greatest theologian and one of its most troubled congregations. There is no such thing as a perfect church, so there is always room for growth. Therefore, the lessons in this series will challenge you as you consider how Paul's rebukes and counsel to the Corinthian church could apply to your own church life." (Bible Expositor and Illuminator, Spring Quarter 2022, Looking Ahead, p. 2). In this twelfth lesson we discuss that this battle in life is a spiritual warfare and we need to use spiritual weapons. For example, to battle the enemy of the mind you need the power of the Holy Spirit and you must meditate on the Word of God. Remember, no matter what you are going through, look to Jesus and God will bless you. Jesus cares for us and walks with us and prays for us as we journey through this life fulfilling the Great Commission. We must be patient and trust in the promises of God. We must trust God and not be overcome by our circumstances. We must be conscientious of the company we are surrounded by and those you allow in your inner circle. We must utilize our Spiritual Disciplines to strengthen our resolve in the times we are met with despair and our faith is challenged. We should stay prayerful in all we do and be thankful for God's grace and mercy. Hopefully we will gain an understanding that we must trust God and walk triumphantly and failure to align our lives with God's righteousness can be spiritually fatal. It is our endeavor that the study of these winter quarter lessons help nurture our minds and spirits and mature us to experience healthier living. Come journey with us as we delve into the Word together.
