Ephesians 6:10-20 (New International Version)
View In My BibleThe Armor of God
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord1 and in his mighty power.2 11 Put on the full armor of God3 so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood,4 but against the rulers, against the authorities,5 against the powers6 of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.7 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God,8 so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist,9 with the breastplate of righteousness in place,10 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.11 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith,12 with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.13 17 Take the helmet of salvation14 and the sword of the Spirit,15 which is the word of God.16 18 And pray in the Spirit17 on all occasions18 with all kinds of prayers and requests.19 With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying20 for all the saints. 19 Pray also for me,21 that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly22 make known the mystery23 of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador24 in chains.25 Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.Scripture quoted by permission.
