Don't Forget To Put On Your Armor!

Good Morning Christian Peeps! Yesterday morning I was praying and as I usually do I ask the Lord to guard me against temptations or any evil that the Devil might throw at me during the week. This time though his voice spoke to me(not audably) just inside my head and He said "have you put on your armor?" Well, as it happens when the light goes on... I remembered the scripture in the Bible that talks about putting on the armor of God. So, I went and looked up just what that armor is and would like to share it with you this morning.

1. Belt: the belt is to "girt up your loins with truth"
2. Breast Plate: "having on the breastplate of righteousness
3. Shoes: "and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace"
4. Shield: "taking the shield of faith, that you may be able to quench the fiery darts of the wicked"
5. Helmet: Salvation
6. Sword Sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

As with any battle, being prepared is key. We are in a daily battle waring with our flesh. When we prepare for the battle, it is easier to overcome. By putting on the armor of God, we can insure that no matter what is thrown at us we can withstand. I pray for blessings this morning on our armor! We will overcome!
