Thoughts on Ephesians 6:13-17
Therefore take up the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you will be able to stand your ground, and having done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth fastened around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness arrayed, and with your feet fitted with the readiness of 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. And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Ephesians 6:14-17
We need to be ready at all times as children of God. Our lives are at war with spiritual forces of the devil and the only way to remain standing is to have the right armor and that is the full armor of God.
This armor is to be worn every time and every day. The armor of God is powerful and it covers us so that we can wage war, stand strong and live victoriously.
This armor gives us the:
Ability to stand against all enemies
Ability to withstand all attacks
Ability to quench every fiery dart of Satan.
How wonderful is our God who has made His armor available for us to put on so that, we can win whenever we are at war.
Prayer: Lord help us to wage war and be victorious in Your name Jesus. We ask that You will enable us to put on the full armor of God every day so that we are not caught unawares by the enemy. May we stand and not be moved by any forces in Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.
