the whole armour of GOD

[jesusislord]

Ephesians 6:10-15

. Let's take a look at the passage one piece at a time.

" Finally, my brethren, be strong [strengthen yourselves in the whole word of God] in the Lord, and in the power of his might. [ the power of His every word

hmmm good topic,

How many times have Christians come up and said that they are being attacked, and dont know what to do....

something to keep in mind, we are told to put the Armor on...... every one realizes that..... but no where, I MEAN, NO WHERE does it ever tell us to remove it......

if you are under attack, what have you done with your armor? chances are, you have removed it......

out of the armor, the breast plate, the helmet, the girdle, out of it all there is only one piecs that is an offensive piece, we only have one item that we can use to attack back, the rest is defensive, the offensive piece of the armor is the SWORD!!.... if you lay down your Sword, you have told the enemy that you will not fight, and thus you will be over come........

for some, that may not realize what the Sword is, it is the Word of God, the Bible........ with out it, you are a sitting duck..... you can not fend off the enemy with out it.

remember to keep your armor on at all times, and when marching into battle, do not turn around to see who is behind you, for those are your own people, face the enemy, if you turn around, you will stumble and be trampled by your own men, or you will be blind sided by the enemy...... rely on God to be your guide into battle, rely on the Spirit of God to guide your words, just as Jesus told us to do.......

stay focused on the Lord, keep your armor on.....at all times.....

AMEN BROTYHER MIKE

We can know what the WORD OF GOD says but head knowledge does not do the job completely.... We need to get that WORD from our head to our hearts...... When we do that than we can put on the whole amour of GOD and fight the good fight......

We need to stay in shape ... with the WORD on the tips of our tongues... ready to fight the good fight... The fight agains the devil.. and his forces of evil....

We only get that through much seeking the LORD in prayer and fasting..

and studying of the WORD OF GOD...

2Ti 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

WE need to know what the WORD says so that when the devil attacks us . we can speak the WORD AND PROTECT OURSELVES....

Hsa 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

Get the WORD OF GOD written on your heart so that you can fight the good fight..

1Ti 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses

finally brothern........ LET THE LORD FIGHT THE FIGHT.... ....

Jos 10:25 And Joshua said unto them, Fear not, nor be dismayed, be strong and of good courage: for thus shall the LORD do to all your enemies against whom ye fight.

MAY THE LORD BLESS ALL OF YOU MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS .. jesusislord

Eph 6:18

18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

(KJV)

I would like to suggest to that this verse gives us a 2nd offensive weapon against satan. I see our Spiritual prayer being the missles that carry the atom bombs. God's word into the spiritual realm and blowing satans evil angels out of the heavens.
