Ephesians 6:11
Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil.
There’s a lot that has been said about the armor of God, it’s been preached on a thousand different times in a thousand different ways So, here’s a thousand and one! The Armor of God is the Word of God!
This is the only practical way to understand it and apply it to our daily lives. We can look at the bible and see that every great victory and every battle won throughout the bible has been won by those who who’ve stood against the enemy by faith in the Word of God. In every case all they had were the promises of God, based on His Word.
In the New Testament this is even more important because Jesus defeated death hell and the grave and in so doing, He’s left us with a better covenant and better promises. When this verse says to stand it is literally telling us to stand on God’s Word! Just like Jesus in the wilderness, we resist the devil by standing steadfast in faith upon the Word of God
