Not weapon formed against me shall prosper, for my righteousness is of You. Lord I thank You for the belt of Truth. Sanctify me through Thy Truth, Lord. Thy Word is Truth.

Lord I thank You for the sword of the Spirit which is the word of the living God. I thank You Lord for Your word. Help me hide Your word in my heart that I might not sin against You. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. Lord I thank You for the shield of faith that is able to quinch EVERY firey dart of the wicked. And Lord, I praise You for the church.

There is no butt plate of retreat. Gen 17.1 "walk before me and be blameless", God has given you the armor, and He also has your back! But He wants us to move! Stand still with all that armor and you become a statue, and we all know what birds do to statues when they sit on their heads! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stand still with all that armor and you become a statue, and we all know what birds do to statues when they sit on their heads! very true Fez, and I believe stand in the context of Ephesians 6 means not to retreat, be firm in the faith, remain firm in the midst of battle and most of all, stand still and see the salvation of the Lord. Trust the Lord through it all. If we take a close look at that armor we will see we have put on Christ. That belt goes all the way around us, so we have the Truth covering our back, too. As is the Holy Spirit our rear guard. Isn't the Lord amazing! We are covered from every angle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife's uncle was a pastor of a 4 square gosple church and one sunday the armor of the Lord was his topic. this topic isn't a salvation sermon. At that time I had not given my live to the Lord but was going through some hard times. Was about to loose everything. One night I came home from work and went to bed. I knew who was destroing my home but it seemed there was nothing I could do. As I lay there I said ok Lord there is nothing I can do about this and I understand for you to be able to do anything I have to give myself to you. So I did then I started to pray for the armor each piece and thanked him for it. How log I lay there I don't know but when I finished I started to tingle in started at my toes and went to my head. At one time my whole body tingled. I then got mad and addressed satan and told him ,"In the name of the lORD Jesus I demand that you leave uor house. He did. The armor is not figurative anything. Thank you for the subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
