GOT YOUR BACK

Use every piece of God’s armor to resist the enemy in the time of evil, so that after the battle you will still be standing firm. Stand your ground, putting on the sturdy belt of truth and the body armor of God’s righteousness. For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News, so that you will be fully prepared. In every battle you will need faith as your shield to stop the fiery arrows aimed at you by Satan. Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

The Apostle Paul wrote the Church at Ephesus warning them to stay on guard, stay prepared for the attacks of the believer’s enemy Satan. He gave them (and us) the uniform requirements to be effective the battle against the devil. With this armor you are prepared to take him face on. Everything is covered … belt … breastplate … shoes … shield … helmet.
 
The only thing left exposed is your back but don’t worry (Phil. 4:6-7). God’s got your back.
