Ephesians 6:10:18
We are fighting a spiritual war here on earth and Satan the devil is running loose after your soul, heart, mind, body, and emotions along with your entire lives and families! Many of you currently are wearing nothing in the spirit. Why is this essential? Let's ask this; does a firefighter go without his protective gear? Does a police officer go with nothing but the clothes on his back? Does a soldier go to battle entirely forsaking protective gear and an offensive weapon? No, they don't. They wouldn't be very effective and would die off quickly. Satan is a Liar who has deceived the entire world into thinking he doesn't exist or isn't a threat or whatever flavor of false doctrine that is being preached to Christianity at large. What we must do is simple. Put on the armor of God. The armor of God consists of 6 parts and is put on like this: In the name of Jesus, I put upon me the helmet of salvation, breastplate of righteousness, shield of faith, sword of the spirit, belt of truth, and the sandals of the gospel of peace. Amen. After you have said that, you are now fully protected and ready to do battle against the forces of evil.
