This Battle is real. this battle is now, are you prepared? Yes we are all in a daily battle with the temptations of the world, you must choose to be armored or defenseless as a babe before a ravaging wolf. Are you ready, will you stand or run, fight or be devoured. Only you can choose so choose well, eternity is at stake.
You’re in a war, fighting a battle, and you may not even know—the battle is for your mind.
This is a study guide to teach you about the Armor of God, how it works to protect and strengthen you, and how to put it on. It teaches that you are in a strategic battle that is raging all around you and me and everyone else. The book states that you don’t have to be afraid, you can become prepared for not only helping yourself but others. To help those who don’t yet know they are in a battle for their very lives and those who are afraid to stand for themselves. This is not about religion or religious interpretation. It is about the truth that can only come from spiritual awakening.
Excerpt
The phrase “full armor of God” comes from a passage in the New Testament: “Therefore put on the full armor of God,
so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to
stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,
and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the
shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and
the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God” (Ephesians 6:13-17).
We are entering the age of the Warrior, the new Hero and Leader who is prepared to go forth into the world of sin and
corruption knowing that God is with him to guide him along the way. You can change the world if you will but change
your life and positively affect those in your circle of influence be it large or small. So put on the armor of God, and
wrap yourself in the cloak of zeal for these are the trappings of a warrior equipped for battle. Then go forth in the
knowledge that if God will bring you to it, God will see you through it. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness
and will expose the motives of the heart.
It’s not your traditional war and in fact most people don’t believe in this kind of battle at all. It is not fought with laser
guided missiles or high tech aerospace engineering. It is a spiritual war. It is not fought with weapons you can see.
But it is a reality just the same. It was real to Jesus and the Bible is filled with examples of His spiritual battles. It was
also real to the Apostle Paul and in the book of Ephesians, he shows us how to fight our spiritual battles and have
victory over our unseen enemy.
There is a battle forming that is encompassing the world; one that is being fought on the physical, temporal and
spiritual planes of existence. This battle is between good and evil in which no one will get out alive, yet, in the middle
stands the warrior. It is he who through wisdom, faith, and knowledge of the word of God, puts his life on the line for
the children of God who are lost, mislead, or alone.
This battle is not hiding in the Shadows, it is in your life – your mind and heart – the enemy is doing his best to flank
you if you’re strong in Christ, to openly confront you if you are weak in Christ. He is the author of deception and if you
try to stand alone he will distract you and overcome your defense, so stand united in a brotherhood of Christ and
know that your back is protected.
I have no time for the complacent, no patience for whiners; I do have words for the worthy, hands of healing for the
hurt, and power for the WARRIORS of Gods army. Where do you see yourself?
