What Does It Really Mean To Put On The Armor Of God? by Allsingles: 8:57am On Jul 22, 2019 |
Put on all the armour that God gives you, so that you will be able to stand up against the Devil's evil tricks. For we are not fighting against human beings but against the wicked spiritual forces in the heavenly world, the rulers, authorities, and cosmic powers of this dark age. So put on God's armour now! Then when the evil day comes, you will be able to resist the enemy's attacks; and after fighting to the end, you will still hold your ground. So stand ready, with truth as a belt tight round your waist, with righteousness as your breastplate, and as your shoes the readiness to announce the Good News of peace. At all times carry faith as a shield; for with it you will be able to put out all the burning arrows shot by the Evil One. And accept salvation as a helmet, and the word of God as the sword which the Spirit gives you. Ephesians 6:11-17 https://allsinglesandmarried..com/2019/07/steps-to-build-up-your-husband-for-your.html?m=1 |

Allsingles:■ Starting in Isaiah 59, the prophet Isaiah informed us that the one who is in fact adorned with the full of armor of God is the Lord, the Redeemer, Himself. 15 Loyalty is gone, and people who try to do good are robbed. The Lord looked and saw there was no justice. He did not like what he saw.The Lord, our Redeemer, is the one who wears the ○ Helmet of salvation ○ The breastplate of righteousness ○ The Sword of Spirit ○ The Uniform of Punishment ○ The Coat of Strong Love ■ In Isaiah 52, Isaiah further informed us that the Redeemer wears ○ the shoes of Peace. 5 Now therefore what have I here,” declares the Lord, “seeing that my people are taken away for nothing? Their rulers wail,” declares the Lord, “and continually all the day my name is despised.■ In Isaiah 11, the prophet also informed us that the Lord, the King, is the one who is clad with the ○ Belt of Truth 1. A small tree[a] will begin to grow from the stump of Jesse. That branch will grow from Jesse’s roots. ■ And in Psalm 91, we are instructed by David to make the Lord our refuge and our fortress for it is in fact His faithfulness — not ours — that is our shield and buckler ○ Shield of Faith 1. He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.The one who in fact does the fighting against the enemy on our behalf and wins all the time, meaning we have no battles to fight so long as we are under the Lord's refuge and fortress. What all this means is that one cannot literally put on the armor of God as people like most in the religion of Christianity like to pretend a possibility. So, how does one then go about getting the armor to be on his side of things? Well, Jesus Christ, the Redeemer Himself, said in John 15 that He will abide in those who abide in Him. 5 “I am the vine, and you are the branches. If you stay joined to me, and I to you, you will produce plenty of fruit. But separated from me you won’t be able to do anything.To put on the armor of God means to get on the good side of the one who is in fact clad in the full armor of God, Jesus Christ. And Jesus Christ said t do that is to love Him 15 “If you love me, you will do what I command. |

Consequently, a good question for those who go around urging others to put on the armor of God would be, how do you go about adorning yourself with an armor that is meant to be worn only by the Lord, our Redeemer? |
