It reads in 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24; Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved complete, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass.
Father God, let this touch someone’s heart today in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
What does putting, on the whole armor of God mean? In the book of Ephesians, the apostle Paul creates a powerful metaphor for how your faith can help protect you from spiritual attack. However, if you symbolically put on the whole armor of God, you can stand firm against these attacks and remain strong in your faith.
So, I like to put on the full armor of God before I get out of bed in the morning. I have memorized the Armor of God. I also put my name where it reads brethren. You could also put Your name where it says Brethren. Brethren is loyal believer or congregation.
The Armor of God
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
Philippians 3:10: “I want to know Christ, yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death.”
{Let’s Pray}
Father God, spiritual exhaustion and grief can make a body tired physically and mentally. A great night’s sleep brings all things new in the morning. Especially a new day. I thank You and praise You that You have fully equipped us to overcome the world, the flesh, and the devil, with such wonderful works of spiritual armor. I thank You and praise You for the Shield-of-Faith fiorst thing in the morning and carries on through the day. I thank You and praise You with the shield I am enabled to extinguish all the flaming arrows and fiery darts of the evil one. Many provisions You have made for my protection against the evil enemy that seeks to defeat and destroy my trust in You. Let me stand fast on the promises You made God and to keep my eyes looking to Jesus. I thank You and praise You that I have not only been saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, but that in the power of the Holy Spirit I may live by grace through faith. Father God, I believe that I will live by faith and not by sight, to Your eternal honor and glory. I love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
