#2 Weapons Of God – His Armor Wear It Daily

SF, Stagecoach, NV

Dear Brothers & Sisters,

     Sorry this one is lengthy, but the Lord felt it important enough for us to be protected in our walk with Him, and there is much to cover – but worth it when we get the protection from the Father, Son and Holy Spirit from their enemy and ours.  Keep the FAITH, there’s only one more to go after this.  Keep in mind, (Psalms 119:64) "The earth is full of Your lovingkindness, O LORD; Teach me Your statutes."
 Ephesians 6:13
"Therefore take up the whole armor of Godthat you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand."
     So let's start using the whole "Armor of God" which was given to us, so we can withstand the evil days we're in.  Once you do, You’ve done all you can - to STAND!  Instead of falling on our faces.
     It would be nice, not having trials daily, within your; spirit, soul or body, but as long as we live on this earth, we will be tested.  This is not to make you miserable, but to train us “HOW TO FIGHT” the twerp (enemy).  But fear not, (2 Timothy 1:7) “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”  So trust the Lord and His Word, it’s the truth - ALWAYS!

Ephesians 6:14
"Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truthhaving put on the breastplate of righteousness,"
     Gird your waist (the center of your being) with only the TRUTH when you speak, adding the breastplate of righteousness - knowing you are in right standing with the Word.  Some will use a “white” lie in their reasoning to cover their actions.  That’s not girding yourself with the truth.  Just apologize; no excuse is needed.  If you have on the “breastplate of righteousness”, then you are covering your heart with doing the right thing in Christ and His Word.
     Are we perfect, NO!  But we can strive to be better and not shame our Lord.  That’s our goal on earth and the blessing will be greater for you.  Zechariah 8:16 says “These are the things you shall do: Speak each man the truth to his neighbor; Give judgment in your gates for truth, justice, and peace;” Truth is the only thing that will bring justice and peace to your soul.  This will not be done by man, but by God Himself.

      Ephesians 6:15
"and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace;"    
     Your feet should be shod (bound) as you walk with the gospel of PEACE.  Jesus came as a Lamb and so should we.   A servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, be patient, in meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if ask for forgiveness, God will give them repentance after acknowledging the truth; and so should we (2 Timothy 2:23-24).
     Always remember, it's not up to you if someone is saved or not - that's the Holy Spirit's job.  We may be called to plough a field; seed it or water it, but always in PEACE, and it’s the Holy Spirit's job to convict the world of sin, not ours!  John 16:8-11 Read. Verse 8 “And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:” 

Ephesians 6:16
"above alltaking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one."
     "Above ALL" (this is most important) you need the shield of faith, to quench (stop) the fiery darts the enemy throws at you.  Remember, NO WEAPON formed against you shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). 
     I’m not sure if this scripture is for sickness OR possibly the fiery dart is various trials.  I’m being honest here, BUT since the Word says “ABOVE ALL” we shouldn’t leave home without it, it’s our Spiritual Insurance against what the twerp means for evil versus tying his hands.  Any way, learn to daily start your day speaking your shield of faith in place, to quench the enemy.

Blessings, 
The Lord's Servant

     As usual, I would ask blessings on all those who read this teaching and ask the Holy Spirit to remind them daily, to add Your armor before leaving the house, especially the Shield of Faith, because I know, without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.” Hebrews 11:6.  Don’t forget, His rewards can be quite spectacular!  In Jesus’ Name I Praise You.
