In Paul's letter to the Ephesians, he informs us that our battle is not against flesh and blood. Instead, we battle against the wiles of the Enemy, and wrestle "e;against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places."e; Our first line of defense is "e;to be strong in the Lord and the power of His might."e; To take this firm stand, we must understand who we are in the Lord as well as recognize the power of his might. This study takes a unique approach, using Paul's conclusion to the letter as a guide to studying the rest of the text.
