My Time With Jesus Tuesday

The Armor Of God

2 Thessalonians 2:9-10,  they're coming of the Lawless one is by the activity of satan with all power and false signs and wonders, and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing because they refuse to love the truth and so be saved.

If you ask the average person about the state of the country or the world they will blame someone usually the president. If you listen to news people every disaster that happens is caused by global warming the new scapegoat.  The truth is scoffed at by the elites as well as most normal people. satan has been at the center of every evil, destructive thing since he lost Heaven.

John 8:32,  and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.

John 4:2,  God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship Him in spirit and Truth.

From this verse we see we must worship Christ in spirit, because we cannot worship Him properly in any other way. The reality is praying through your spirit to God's spirit. We were created in God's image, so since He is a spirit we must also be Spirits. It also stands to reason that the only way to battle satan the spirit is with our spirit. We are in a battle for our souls, and that battle is spiritual. Almighty God equips us for this spiritual battle by giving us spiritual weapons, offensive and defensive.

James 4:7-8,  submit yourselves therefore to God, resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands you Sinners and purify your hearts you double minded.

Ephesians 6:11-18,  put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against Power, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the Heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, having done all to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace, above all taking the shield of Faith with you with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the spirit which is the word of God praying always with all prayer and supplication in the spirit being watchful to this sin, with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints.

One way to look at the armor of God would be to look at the armor Roman soldiers had. Theirs was a physical protection, ours is a spiritual protection, but in a way they do the same thing. God bless you and your family. Praise The Lord!

Remember Jesus loves you.

Prayer of Salvation.

Lord Jesus Christ, I am a sinner. I know you suffered and died on the cross and rose again in order to wash away my sins and to save me. I acknowledge my sins, and I Repent those sins and ask you to come into my heart as my personal savior. I believe and I receive the gift of Salvation. Thank you, Lord Jesus. Amen. 

Praise The Lord!
