Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. Ephesians 6:10,11
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. Ephesians 6:10,11
Being a royal priesthood of blood-washed warriors for Christ we must utilize that which God has given us through faith. Contrary to popular belief the armor of God is not something you get up every morning and put on, it is attached by faith and never comes off, growing as it is used, just like exercising your muscles!
The armor of God only protects the front, not the back, so stand firm and fight the good fight because the assault of the enemy comes against the mind and the heart, unlike conventional war, spiritual warfare attacks with flaming missiles of fear, doubt, and unbelief! Unseen forces of lust, pride, and greed have taken out many a warrior of God!
Lions attack the weak, the sick and the young, hardly ever leaping on the headwater buffalo, they stay hidden in the weeds waiting for the stragglers and so it is with us. Remember King David, mighty warrior and a man after God's own heart laid down his weapons and allowed a beautiful woman to seduce him after deciding not to go to war! Beware, it can happen to you!
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. I Peter 5:8,9
