Ephesians 6:10-18 “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.”
Evil is the absence of good; the lack of God in the natural and supernatural of this fallen world. Putting on truth, righteousness, the gospel of peace, faith, salvation and the Word of God, we can stand firm against all darkness. With the unshakable knowledge of the Almighty Creator of the Cosmos and eternal perspective as heaven as our destiny and destination, we walk this journey with faithful confidence and godly contentment.
Keep calm and put on the armor of God.
In Christ, Brian
