The Bible contains story after story of those who, by faith, performed mighty deeds, were strengthened beyond human capabilities and were rescued from dire circumstances. Though our circumstances may look different, we too face battles of varying kinds. The Word of God commands us to pick up our shield of faith and engage the fight. Join us for session twenty three as we discover the victory we are granted by faith!

Discussion Questions:
1. What stood out to you most in either the homework or the message?
2. How did we see the characters in the homework respond to difficult situations by faith? Who is credited with the victory in each story, and what does this tell us about Who gains the victory for us as well?
3. When Daniel is told he cannot continue to pray to the Lord, he does so anyway. When Peter is arrested, he falls asleep in the jail cell. How do these actions demonstrate the faith of these men? How can you apply this faith to your lives?
4. Spiritual warfare is a daily battle plan. What should our battle plan look like? How can we engage the battle more effectively?
5. When and why do we fail to pick up our shield of faith when we are in the heat of battle?
