THE UNSEEN
Armor of God
8.18.24
Ephesians 6:13-18 (NLT)
13 Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. 14 Stand your ground, putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God’s righteousness. 15 For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared. 16 In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil. 17 Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.


Your real enemy is UNSEEN, he’s hoping you don’t realize he’s even there.

Ephesians 6:13
Therefore, put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.

Put on every piece.

Ephesians 6:14
Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist,

Belt = TRUTH

Ephesians 6:14
with the breastplate of righteousness in place,

Breastplate = RIGHTEOUSNESS

Ephesians 6:15
and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.

Shoes = GOOD NEWS OF PEACE

Ephesians 6:16
In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.

Shield = FAITH

Ephesians 6:17
Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

Helmet = SALVATION
Sword = WORD OF GOD

Ephesians 6:18
And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.

Righteousness is right side up living
Unrighteousness is upside down behavior

Am I creating an environment that welcomes the enemy into my life or am I creating an environment that welcomes God’s favor into my life?

You can't live free, fully, and abundantly when you have too much weight on you.

The way to fight Satan is not to focus on Satan, but to cover your life with the gospel!
