When
a challenge has been extended, the challenger is prepared to not only
attack, but defend. Remember, our tongues hold the power of life and
death. Before you make this statement out loud, you need to know that
you are prepared for battle.
HELMET
of SALVATION in JESUS CHRIST needs to be on your head. BREASTPLATE of
RIGHTEOUSNESS needs to be on your back and chest. GIRDLE of TRUTH about
your waist. SHOES of the GOSPEL of PEACE. In one hand you carry your
SHIELD of FAITH; in the other hand you carry the SWORD of the SPIRIT,
which is the WORD of GOD. PRAYING in the SPIRIT ALWAYS. Be on the
ALERT, WATCHING ALWAYS. Be ready to speak in authority, BOLDNESS of
MOUTH declaring the Mystery of the GOSPEL to all who hear.
If
you are not fully clothed in Jesus Christ, you are not ready to
declare war on the enemies of God. I am so glad I know my LORD and
SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST and that HE is mine forever and I am HIS!
I love Christian clothing sites, they inspire us and bring out the best in some of us (like me) and the worst in some of us. Boldness of faith is essential in bringing the message of salvation through Jesus Christ to the forefront of spiritual warfare instead of leaving it on the home front. And I thank God for the anointing power of the Holy Spirit, who works through those of us who are willing to take a stand for our belief and will not back down when the fighting gets ugly.
