Poem
In ancient times when knights were bold, They dressed in armor, so we're told. When they went out to face their foe, Their armor protected them head to toe. Christians we must do the same, Or be struck down by Satan's aim. His flaming arrows fly all around, Intending to knock us to the ground. So put on God's armor without delay, We need His protection everyday. For our struggle is not against what we can see, But the powers of darkness are our enemy. Stand firm then and dress with all haste, Start with truth buckled 'round your waist. Satan fights dirty by spreading lies, But the belt of God's truth will make us wise. Next is the Breastplate of Righteousness, That God provides for all who are His. It's the righteousness of Christ covering you, That the evil one cannot stand up to. Now cover your feet with the readiness of, Sharing God's gospel of peace and love.. Take the Shield of Faith and keep it near, To deflect Satan's arrows of confusion and fear. Place the Helmet of Salvation firmly on your head, It will keep Satan's lies from filling you with dread. He wants to make you doubt your salvation is sure, But the helmet will guard your mind and keep you secure. Your armor is complete, but now you need a sword, So take the Sword of the Spirit, the Word of the Lord. God's Word is sufficient to defend or attack. With God's Word in your heart you can hold Satan back. With your armor in place and your Sword in your hand, Be strong in the Lord and in His power stand. And pray in the Spirit at all times and all ways, Cause the enemy trembles when Saints start to pray! Based on Ephesians 6:10-18
