Armor of God

Ephesians 6:1

"Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. 

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, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.

Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil.

Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. Stand your ground, putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God’s righteousness. 

For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared.

In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil. 

Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion.

Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere."

Psalm 91:9-10

"If you make the Lord your refuge, if you make the Most High your shelter, no evil will conquer you; no plague will come near your home."

To put on the full Armor of God is applying the "Word" in our lives, giving us protection from every angle of attack from spiritual forces.

It's a spiritual armor, not a physical armor. The armor is made up of truth, righteousness, peace, faith and salvation.
Praying with others creates a shield of faith that strengthens everyone involved.

 

Onward and upward, in Christ Jesus
