Day 16: The Armor of God

📖 Ephesians 6:13–17

💡 Go After Jesus Principle #16
As you go after Jesus, take up the full armor of God so you can stand firm in the day of battle.

✍️ Devotional Thought
Paul lists six essential pieces of spiritual armor: the belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness, shoes of the gospel of peace, shield of faith, helmet of salvation, and sword of the Spirit. Each piece is vital. Soldiers must have their armor ready for the battles that will come. Take a moment today to prepare your spiritual armor for the challenges you will face.

The belt of truth holds everything together. The breastplate of righteousness protects your heart. The shoes of peace provide you with the stability to move forward with confidence. The shield of faith extinguishes the fiery arrows of the enemy. The helmet of salvation secures your mind in Christ. And the sword of the Spirit — God’s Word — equips you to fight back with truth.

When you find yourself in a spiritual battle, don’t leave any piece behind. The enemy will attack where you are most vulnerable. When the enemy comes attacking, be ready to stand strong as a soldier of Jesus with the full armor of God.

❓ Reflection Question
Which piece of God’s armor do you most need to strengthen right now?
