The Armor of God

 

The Armor of God

February 26/27, 2019, Hanoi, Viet Nam

 

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 needed prayers and requests.

With this in mind,

be alert

and always keep on praying

for all the Lord’s people.
