WHAT IS THE FULL ARMOR OF GOD?
Share
Life is more spiritual than it is physical. In our Earthly experience we have to be watchful, endure well & have steadfast faith as we trust the Lord to be our Shepherd.. He said we are in this world but not of this world. Our battle is not physical, it’s spiritual, and we are currently at WAR. Let’s jump into Ephesians together.. Ephesians 6:12 AMP reads,
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this [present] darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) places.”
Then, the word of God instructs us to put on the FULL Armor of God in order to withstand evil, and elaborates on what His armor consists of. Ephesians 6:13-17 reads,
“Therefore, put on the complete armor of God, so that you will be able to [successfully] resist and stand your ground in the evil day [of danger], and having done everything [that the crisis demands], to stand firm [in your place, fully prepared, immovable, victorious]. So stand firm and hold your ground, having tightened the wide band of truth (personal integrity, moral courage) around your waist and having put on the breastplate of righteousness (an upright heart), [Is 11:5] and having strapped on your feet the gospel of peace in preparation [to face the enemy with firm-footed stability and the readiness produced by the good news]. [Is 52:7] Above all, lift up the [protective] 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.
We must also open our mouths and exercise the authority we have been given in JESUS name. PRAY. MAKE DECLARATIONS & DECREES. SPEAK LIFE. Ephesians 6:18 AMP reads,
“With all prayer and petition pray [with specific requests] at all times [on every occasion and in every season] in the Spirit, and with this in view, stay alert with all perseverance and petition [interceding in prayer] for all God’s people.”
WALK BY THE SPIRIT. LOVE ALL. GIVE THANKS. ENDURE. PRESERVE. BE BOLD & KEEP YOUR EYES SET ON HIM.
I LOVE YOU ALL 🩶.
