The word for today is - Armor !

Good morning,
The word for today is - Armor !
 
God has reveal everything to the believers. God's revelation of all that He is to us, all that He has done for us, and all that He promises to do for us in the days ahead. This wonderful, everlasting truth is written in the Bible, it's revealed by the Holy Spirit, and realized through Jesus Christ. Read Hebrews 4:16 ,Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy (compassion), and find grace to help in time of need. Let's start with Philippians 4:6-7,Do not worry about anything; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. So, read Ephesians 6:10-18, "Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places."Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one."And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints.  Then pray in the Spirit on all occasions and may your request known to God. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints. To the Christian armed for defense in battle, the apostle recommends only one weapon of attack; but it is enough, the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. It subdues and mortifies evil desires and blasphemous thoughts as they rise within; and answers unbelief and error as they assault from without. Dressed in this armor daily, we are prepared to enter the world. Think about each piece as you put it on. So, hold up the sword of the spirit, the Word of God and go. Thank God for supplying us with His armor to protect us. Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
