Paul says in Ephesians 6:10-20 that we need to be reminded to put on the whole armor of God.
I know that there are time when I'm content in putting on part of my armor I know it's so easy to just carry the basic and survive but what does it look Iike to put on our whole armor? So what is it exactly Let's break it down for this mornings wake-up call.
Ephesians 14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
-So stand having your loins (the side between the lower ribs and pelvis and the lower part of your back)grit about with truth.
-Breastplate (a piece of plate armor partially on completely coverinf the front of the torso) of righteousness
15 And your feet shod (past tents for shoes)with the preparation of the gospel of peace; (so think on that we need shoes of peace, so it has to be one thing we walk in).
16 Above all, taking the shield (a broad piece of armor, vary widely in form and size carried apart from the body, usually on the left arm as a defense against swords, lance,arrows ect) of faith, where with ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet ( any of various form of protective head cornering worn by soldiers, firefighters, divers, cyclists, ect) of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: 18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication ( a humble pray, in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; 19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that there in I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
So when we put on the armor we get truth, righteousness, peace,faith,salvation, the bible,
..and boldness.
So think now what part of armor are you missing?
Today let's make sure we put on our whole armor of God and get ready for battle.
