Finally, grow strong in the Lord, with the strength of his power. Put God's armour on so as to be able to resist the devil's tactics. For it is not against human enemies that we have to struggle but against the Sovereignties and the Powers who originate the darkness in this world, the spiritual army of evil in the heavens. That is why you must rely on God's armour, or you will not be able to put up any resistance when the worst happens, or have enough resources to hold your ground.
So stand your ground, with TRUTH buckled round your waist and INTEGRITY for a breastplate, wearing for shoes on your feet the eagerness to spread the GOSPEL OF PEACE and always carrying the shield of FAITH so that you can use it to put out the burning arrows of the evil one. Ane then you must accept SALVATION from God to be your helmet and receive the word of God from the Spirit to use as a sword.
