Be Protected At All Times

Ephesians 6 talks about putting on the full Armor of God. Sometimes we only use the spiritual one or two ways which is 1. we only use the Armor when things are going bad to protect ourselves, 2. we only use the Armor when things are going good and the minute things get bad we put that stuff down and try to fight the battle ourselves.  The bible says that the battle is not yours.

I just want to briefly talk about the Armor of  God.

 
The Helmet of Salvation- This is to show that Christ saved you.
         - We must thank God that we are his children. John 4:4 says, " The one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world." We must remind ourselves of this everyday that Christ is in us and no thing or no man is greater than he is.
         - Two more points is that we must praise God for eternal life and claim the mind of Christ

The BreastPlate of  Righteousness- This is used to protect your heart the the evil one an dis evil desires.
          - Keep the breastplate firmly fastened in place with upright character and righteous living.
Psalm 66:18 says, If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.

The Belt of Truth- this is probably the most useful piece to my knowledge. The belt of truth is used to hold everything else together. God don't care weather or not you wear a belt with your pair of jeans, but when you put on that Spiritual Armor it is a must that you have that belt.
          - ALERT!!!! Please Master your EMOTIONS. You need to allow the spirit to guide you and not the flesh.
         - If the belt of truth is not in place, you cannot expect your prayers to be answered.
James 4:3 says -- "When you ask, you do not receive, because what you get on your pleasures"

The Gospel Shoes- This is the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace, meaning that you are ready for . Just some quick points are: Be prepared-seek a boldness from Christ, Share the Gospel-  be able to go and spread God's word to all people, and most importantly, Intercede for the lost.

1 Timothy 2:1,3-4 says: "I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone. This is good, and places God our Savior, who wants all men to be saved and  to come a knowledge of the truth."

Put The Armor of God on everyday, no matter what. Lets not only put it on when something is going wrong in our life but lets also wear it when things are going good. Wear God's Armor everyday all day, it is to protect your whole life from the devil and his evil desires of this world.

The devil has come to steal, kill, and destroy, but I have come to give you life and give it to you more abundantly.
