"Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes R358 of the devil," ~Ephesians 6:11 (NASB)
SISTAH DECLARATION:
I will keep my protected with God's armor at all times!! When you wake up in the morning and get dressed for the day, you're probably not thinking about stepping onto a battlefield. But the enemy is all around us, constantly assaulting our hearts and minds with temptations, adversities, emotional attacks, and more. And some days, it feels as though we are standing on the front lines of combat with no protection whatsoever.
Therein lies our misunderstanding. You see, we do have protection. The Lord made a provision for our nakedness in battle. He hasn't sent us to war unprotected; instead, He's given us a suit of armor that the enemy can't penetrate--the armor of God.
Do you want to see a dramatic change in your life? Do you want to stand strong in the face of adversity? Do you want to overcome temptation? Then you need to dress for battle.
I challenge you to intentionally put on your spiritual armor every day for the next seven days. Put it on one piece at a time--the helmet of salvation, the breastplate of righteousness, the belt of truth, the sandals of peace, the shield of faith, and the sword of God. Just try it as you meditate daily on Ephesians 6:10-18, and watch what God will do.
