ARMOR OF GOD

ARMOR OF GOD

To face the worldly cares every day,
Start the day off on your knees and pray.
Pray that God's Spirit will give you protection
To guide your thoughts and guide your action.

Be ready, with Truth
As a belt around your waist;
Righteousness -- your breastplate --
Remember it when there is haste.

Your shoes as readiness at ease
To announce Good News of peace;
Faith as a shield to repel
The flaming arrows of one from hell.

Accept salvation as a helmet --
For you that is God's reward,
Because the Spirit gives you
The Word of God as a sword.

Do all this in prayer, my friend;
Pray on every occasion,
Asking for God to lend a hand
As the Spirit leads you to be --
Pray for God's people, and pray also for me.

"Build up your strength in union with the Lord and by means of His mighty
power put on all the armor that God gives you." Ephesians 6:10 - 18

Comment by Daughter of Grace on January 22, 2009 at 1:50pm: The Armor of God

Today's Scripture

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 (Ephesians 6:13 NLT).

God has fully equipped you today with everything you need to stand strong in the midst of any battle you may be facing. He’s provided His full armor to protect your heart and mind. Ephesians 6:14-17, tells us about God’s spiritual armor that covers us—He’s given us the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shoes of the gospel of peace, the shield of faith which stops the fiery darts of the enemy, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God. When you receive God’s truth, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation and His Word, you are fully protected to resist the enemy and stand firm. Remember, God holds victory in store for the upright. As you put on His armor by faith you will be positioned to receive His victory. You will be strengthened and empowered to live as an overcomer in every area of your life!

A Prayer for Today

Father in heaven, thank You for equipping me with everything I need to live as an overcomer in this life. I receive your full armor knowing that with You I can stand and overcome every obstacle. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
