-Spiritual readiness brings spiritual steadiness

Putting on God’s Armor

1.The belt of truth

-Put the truth at the center of who you are.

2.The breastplate of righteousness

“Righteousness is knowing that you were examined and approved”

- Tim Keller

3.The shoes of peace from the Good News

-I am at peace with God no matter what happens

4.The shield of faith

-This is about advancement, about moving forward

-You pick it up

-Faith is active, not passive

5.The helmet of salvation

-Remember your salvation; live with eternity in mind

6.The sword of the Spirit

-God’s Word, with God’s Spirit points to what is true

-If you don’t believe in demons, you start to demonize people

The word of God, is sharper than any two-edged sword because it cuts between our soul and our spirit and exposes our innermost thoughts and desires. [Hebrews 4:12]

Prayer is the way we put on the armor
