Call to Worship
Have someone read aloud:
Ephesians 6:11-12 (NKJV)
Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
Prayer
Sovereign God, there is no power in heaven and on earth that can compare to You. You alone are almighty and all-powerful. All power and authorities remain subject to You in spite of their rebellion. Praise be to You, O exalted One. May Your kingdom come. May Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Hallelujah. Amen.

Scripture Reading
Read aloud (together if applicable).
R-41 SPIRITUAL WARFARE 屬靈爭戰
Ephesians 6:10-18; 2 Corinthians 10:3-4 (NKJV)
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints—
For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh.
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds,
Song of Response
Worship Through Prayer
Father, protect me from being lured away from You by any seemingly supernatural or miraculous events. Give me wisdom to discern mysterious things that are unexplainable. Keep me away from any superstitious beliefs.
Your Word tells me that even the spiritual realm acknowledges and submits to the authority of the Lord Jesus. Help me to submit myself fully to the authority of Christ and resist the evil one. Let me have nothing to do with the deeds of darkness.
Lord, remind me of any demonic involvement and occultic practices that I have done in my life but have forgotten. I repent of my sins. Forgive me for doing these hateful things. When I turned to the occult for power, I endangered myself by playing with evil spirits. Save me from evil, O Lord. Thank You.
