Ephesians 6:11-18
Put on the whole armour of God that ye may be able to stand against the
wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against
principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this
world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
These are
powerful scriptures in that they give a clear picture of the powerful forces
believers are fighting against. Evilness begins in the spirit realm and then
manifests themselves in the natural.
Therefore, God
being love and made provisions for man would leave us defenseless in a sinful
world. God knew that man is powerless against sin; therefore, He dressed
believers in the necessary battle armour to be successful in this spiritual
warfare. Take note of the weaponry, and they are: truth, righteousness, the
gospel of peace, shield of faith, and the helmet of salvation all are defensive
except one, which is the sword of the Spirit-the Bible. We are encouraged to
pray always because prayer is our close communication with God and when Satan
sees believers praying he knows there is a close connection between the
believer and God.
Let me
encourage all to wear your body armour proudly because it is of God with
victory written all over it, and then commence to wheel your sword, take the
fight to Satan and his army even in high places.
We
are victorious warrior because Christ defeated Satan at the cross of Calvary and now we can sing Victory is mine; I told Satan
get thee behind me; because victory is mine.
