Put on the Whole Armor of God
Written through the inspiration of God by Prayer Warrior/Missionary, Evangelist Ms. Cm Carter
We must put on the whole armor of God in order for our living to be positively impacted in living for God. Satan can’t penetrate God’s Armor. The Lord make provision for our sin of nakedness. If we want to grow and experience maturity in our christian life we must put on an keep on our spiritual armor and follow the Lord into the battle of life.
The Whole Armor of God
1) Belt of truth: Knowing truth and living truth. Ephesians 4.13-14; 25; 1 Peter 1.13-16.
2) Breastplate of righteousness: Justification and moral behavior. 1 Peter 2.11-12; Zechariah 3.1-7; Revelation 12.10-11.
3) Shoes of the preparation of the gospel of peace: God’s peace and a readiness to share the gospel. 1 Peter 3.15; Colossians 4.6
4) Shield of faith: Faith in God that deflects the accusations of the Devil.
5) Helmet of salvation: The keeping power of the hope of eternal life. 1 Thessalonians 5.8; 2 Corinthians 4.16-18
6) Sword of the Spirit: Isaiah 50.4
7) Prayer: all kinds of prayer, on all occasions; with all perseverance, for all the saints. How we are to put all the armor on. Armor ready, set out a daily time and place (preferably morning) for fervent prayer, where we can meet the Lord, since we are to follow in his footsteps; it makes sense for us to meet with God each morning. Although prayer at any time is good.
As Christians when we truly love and know God, we should not be content just to live our life for him. We need to find a way to share this beautiful gift with everyone we can. God is our perfect example. We don’t need God to be God for only part of our life but all of our life.
