Dressed for Battle

Scripture

Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. - Ephesians 6:11 (NIV)

God has given us armor, and if we know what it is and make sure we are wearing it all the time, Satan will be much less successful in his attacks against us. Ephesians 6:14–18 lists the seven things that God considers our armor: Truth, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation, the Word of God and prayer.

The armor of God is a package of wonderful gifts God has supplied and all we need to do is put them on by faith. God has not left us defenseless in this world to go into battle on our own with no help. Each morning we can remind ourselves of these seven pieces of armor and make sure we have each of them in place.
