The Armor

There is evil out there. Both in this world and outside of it. The evil in this world is fought using law enforcement, the military, and the justice system. But the evil that lurks in the spiritual realm which is outside of this world needs to be fought supernaturally. And for that, we have God to thank. He provides us with the proper tools we need in order to defend ourselves and to fight with. Paul reminds us in Ephesians 6 that we have access to the Armor of God. He tells us that those who put on the full armor of God are promised protection and benefits. With this armor we are to be on guard at all times. The armor allows and helps us to stand firm in times of struggle and battle. But this passage reminds us that in our spiritual battles, God will win for us. Always. All we have to do is turn to Him and trust in His protection and will. We need to trust in the Armor of God and stand firm until Christ’s return where He will win the ultimate battle between good and evil.
