I implore you…. Put ON the Armor of God. Do you want to win the spiritual battles in your life?
There is only one way… and that is to choose the way that God prescribes. He gives us more than we can ever ask for and I can say from my own life that He has rescued me from so many things I cannot even count. His love is that deep. But if we want to endure and bring truth into this world, we must be dressed for battle. Don’t be lazy.
God gives us this armor so we can win! Trust Him and listen as we walk through the different aspects of this armor and what we are fighting against.
Ephesians 6:10-18
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
