GETTING DRESSED: Putting on God's Armor :Eph. 6: 10-20 I'm (we're) strong in You Lord, empowered through my (our) union with You; I (we) draw strength from You, that strength which Your boundless might provides I (we) put on the whole armor which You supply, God, that I (we) may be able successfully to stand up against all the strategies and deceits of the devil. For I (we) wrestle not with flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the master spirits who are the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly spirit sphere. Therefore, I (we) put on your complete armor, God, that I (we) may be able to resist and stand my (our) ground. I (we) stand, I (we) hold my (our) ground, having tightened the girdle of truth around my (our) loins, having put on the breastplate of righteousness (integrity. moral rectitude, right-standing with God); and having shod my (our) feet in preparation, promptness, and readiness with the Gospel of Peace. I (we) lift up over all the covering shield of faith, upon which I (we) can quench all the flaming missiles of the wicked one I (we) take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.I (we) pray at all times, on every' occasion, in every season, in the spirit, with all manner of prayer and entreaty. I (we) keep alert and watch with strong purpose and perseverance, interceding in behalf of all the saints I (we) pray that freedom of utterance may be given me (us), that I (we) may speak boldly the mystery of the Gospel for which I am (we are) an ambassador. I (we) pray I (we) may declare it boldly and courageously as I (we) ought to do GOING TO WORK. In Jesus name, Amen!"
