Armor of God
The document discusses the armor of God described in Ephesians 6:10-18. It explains that as soldiers wear armor into battle, Christians must also wear spiritual armor in their battle against evil forces. The armor of God includes the belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness, shoes of peace, shield of faith, helmet of salvation, and sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Christians are instructed to pray in the Spirit at all times as they fight with this armor.
