At the Movies

Week 3

Message Summary

It can be easy to think that we are just in a physical fight against the world, but we are also in a spiritual battle. With God’s help, when we take control of our thoughts, we’re able to win the fight against our spiritual enemy.

Key Scripture

For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world ...
Ephesians 6:12 NLT

Additional Scriptures

Start talking. Find a conversation starter for your group.

  • What is your favorite sport to watch or play?

Start thinking. Ask a question to get your group thinking.

  • Would you say you tend to have a more positive mindset or a negative one? In what ways do your thoughts impact the way you live?
  • Read Ephesians 6:12. How does this Scripture influence who you view as an “enemy"? Is there an area where you are fighting against people instead of against your spiritual enemy?

Start sharing. Choose a question to create openness.

  • Talk about a time when you felt like you were in a spiritual fight. How did you get through that time?
  • Share any mindsets or lies that you need to take captive. What truths from God’s Word can help you fight those lies?

Start praying. Be bold and pray with power.

Father, thank You for being with us as we fight our spiritual battles. Please help us to take control of our minds, staying in the fight. Remind us of Your truths, and who You say we are. We trust You with our whole lives. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Start doing. Commit to a step and live it out this week.
