Here is a small study of some verses I particularly enjoy. I pray these additional pieces of armor when I put on the whole armor of God listed in Ephesians 6. Enjoy.
BARRIOR OF SEPARATION
Exo 14:20 It stationed itself between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Isra’el – there was cloud and darkness here, but light by night there; so that the one did not come near the other all night long.
ARMOUR OF RIGHTEOUSNESS (left hand and right hand)
2Co 6:7 By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
ARMOR OF LIGHT
Rom 13:12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.
Neh 9:19 still, you, in your great compassion, did not abandon them in the desert. The column of cloud did not leave them by day; it kept leading them along the way. By night the column of fire kept showing them light and the path to take.
Psa 27:1 By David: ADONAI is my light and salvation; whom do I need to fear? ADONAI is the stronghold of my life; of whom should I be afraid? Psa 4:6 Many ask, “Who can show us some good?” ADONAI, lift the light of your face over us!
Psa 139:11 If I say, “Let darkness surround me, let the light around me be night,”
GLITTERING SPEAR
Hab 3:11 The sun and moon stand still in the sky at the light of your arrows speeding by, at the gleam of your glittering spear.
MOUNTAINS OF PROTECTION
Psa 125:2 Yerushalayim! Mountains all around it! Thus ADONAI is around his people henceforth and forever.
ANGEL OF THE LORD ENCAMPS US
Psa 34:7 The angel of Adonai, who encamps around those who fear him, delivers them.
ADONAI WILL FIGHT AGAINST THOSE WHO FIGHT AGAINST US
1Sa 2:10 those who fight ADONAI will be shattered; he will thunder against them in heaven ADONAI will judge the ends of the earth. He will strengthen his king and enhance the power of his anointed.”
Psa 35:1 By David: ADONAI, oppose those who oppose me; fight against those who fight against me.
Zech. 14:3 Then ADONAI will go out and fight against those nations, fighting as on a day of battle.
Psalms 35:5 May they be like chaff before the wind, with the angel of Adonai to drive them on.
WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD - EPHESIANS
(Eph 6:11) Use all the armor and weaponry that God provides, so that you will be able to stand against the deceptive tactics of the Adversary.
(Eph 6:12) For we are not struggling against human beings, but against the rulers, authorities and cosmic powers governing this darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realm.
(Eph 6:13) So take up every piece of war equipment God provides; so that when the evil day comes, you will be able to resist; and when the battle is won, you will still be standing.
1. BELT OF TRUTH
2. BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
3. READINESS ON YOUR FEET
4. SHIELD OF TRUST
5. HELMET OF DELIVERANCE
6. SWORD GIVEN BY THE SPIRIT (GOD’S WORD)
7. PRAYER
(Eph 6:14) Therefore, stand! Have the belt of truth buckled around your waist, put on righteousness for a breastplate,
(Eph 6:15) and wear on your feet the readiness that comes from the Good News of shalom.
(Eph 6:16) Always carry the shield of trust, with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the Evil One.
(Eph 6:17) And take the helmet of deliverance; along with the sword given by the Spirit, that is, the Word of God;
(Eph 6:18) as you pray at all times, with all kinds of prayers and requests, in the Spirit, vigilantly and persistently, for all God’s people.
