THE ARMOR OF GOD

I have no words in me tonight. I've sat here, thinking and praying on what He wants me to pray about tonight. There are so many things that need to be prayed over. In reality, it is all summed up in Ephesians 6:10-20

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 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. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
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. Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.

We are in a Spiritual Battle. Everything- all of life- is one, big Spiritual Battle.

Tonight, I am simply putting on my full armor of God. I need to be able to stand my ground no matter what.

God is my Refuge and Strength. He is my Armor.

Lord God, I pray my consistent prayers. I pray for Congresswoman Giffords. I pray for her husband, Mark Kelly. I pray for President Obama. I pray for the turmoil around the world. I pray that this nation would turn back to You. You never left us... we, as a nation, left You, Lord God.

I pray for my 2 children who are sick. I pray for my husband... that You will bless the work of his hands. Protect him from those who would intend him harm.

I pray for my friends- in real life, and my online friends.

Help us all to put on Your armor, Lord God.

I pray all of these things in Jesus Name- Amen
