Spiritual Warfare

There really is no place for not being prepared when you are called of God to stand your ground , watching for the enemy's tactics. When you arise in the morning put on the full armor of God.

Ephesians 6:10-12- 14 -In conclusion, be  strong in the Lord ( be empowered through your union with Him ) ; draw your strength from Him ( that strength from which His boundless might provides ). Put on God's full armor ( the armor of a heavy armed  soldier which God supplies ). that you may be able successfully to stand up against ( all ) the strategies and the deceits of the devil. Stand therefore (hold your ground ), having tightened the belt of truth around your loins and having put on the breastplate of integrity and of moral rectitude and right standing with God. And having shod your feet in preparation  ( to face the enemy with the firm-footed stability, the promptness, and the readiness produced by the good news) of the gospel of peace.Lift up over all the (covering 0 shield of saving faith, upon which you can quench all the flaming missiles of the wicked (one). And take the helmet of salvation and the sword that the Spirit wields, which is the Word of God. Pray at all times ( on every occasion, in every season) in the Spirit, with all manner of prayer and entreaty. To that end keep alert and watch with strong purpose and perseverance; interceding in behalf of all the saints ( God's consecrated people).
