In Bible times things were much different than what we have in today's world. One of the things that was different was the way battles were fought. Soldiers wore armor and carried swords and shields for protection against their enemies.

It is the same way with a Christian. A Christian must put on the whole armor of God. We must put on this armor so we will be able to stand against any attacks that the devil may try to fire at us. How do we put on this whole armor of God? Putting on the armor of God is done by prayer and living our lives daily by faith. The Bible tells us in the book of Ephesians how to put this armor on. Click below on each verse to learn more about this armor.

10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: 18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; (Ephesians 6:10-18)
