Ephesians 6:10-18 KJVS

Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. [11] Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

[12] For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. [13] Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

[14] Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; [15] And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; [16] Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. [17] And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: [18] Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

So deep in sin, I turned away The skies above were darkest Grey Then I repent on bended knee And Jesus Christ delivered me A rainbow shone, the clouds rolled back He set my feet on the right track I'll forgive for he forgave me And Jesus Christ delivered me Then, lo, one day again I fell An open door to evil hell Truth of this He made me to see And Jesus Christ delivered me Don't get comfortable with sin You are welcoming devils in Obeying Thy God gives you a key And Jesus can deliver thee Salvation from death we obtain But open doors let in the rain So, light of God you cannot see But Jesus can deliver thee All power and strength, there's no shame When you cry out in Jesus name Resist the devil, he must flee Jesus, the Lord delivers me Ephesians six will document The armor of God, it's intent Wear it for the whole world to see How Jesus can deliver thee The helmet of His salvation The first step in this race we run Protection from Satan's deceit Yes Jesus will deliver thee When all my sins I do confess I'm covered in his righteousness Sinless Christ nailed them to the tree None but He could deliver me No shin guards, flexibility So we can pray on bended knee Humble ourselves unto the King The King of Kings deliver thee A hunger for the word of God With the gospel my feet are shod I'll be prepared to preach God's peace So Jesus can deliver thee With truth My loins are girt about All life flows from the river's mouth The truth will set me free indeed And Jesus Christ delivered me Take up the shield of ancient faith Trust in the promises God saith Satan's darts of fire miss me Each time Jesus delivers me The Bible is a two edged sword Father will always keep his word I draw it shining, from it's sheath This Word made flesh deliver thee

Just a word I feel led to share... The Holy Spirit will convict us of sin in order for us to be changed by His power, but Satan will whisper guilt and shame to us, making us feel unworthy of Forgiveness. Don't listen to him! Let God convict and change you from within. Guilt comes from the devil, conviction and repentance from God. <3<3 xoxo

Well said. I say, I may lack His armor but not His grace. Thanks for sharing.

We wear The armor because of his grace so I'm sure you're protected! Thanks! Xo
