Armor of GodSample
It’s Not About Winning but Standing
It’s vital to notice that spiritual armor is not for winning a battle but is used for standing firm in the victory.
Your spiritual armor enables you to stand in the victory that Christ has already won. It enables you to firmly withstand the attacks and the fiery accusations of the wicked one, the devil.
It’s true that the Bible says we do wrestle against principalities, powers, rulers, and spiritual hosts, but we wrestle from a position of victory.
We don’t fight for victory; we fight from victory. The main purpose of the armor of God is not for fighting but to enable us to stand firmly in the victory of Christ. Just stand and do not move from your position of victory.
About this Plan
We are instructed to put on the armor of God which includes faith, righteousness, salvation, truth, and peace. We are not required to produce it but are directed to wear it. This armor is God’s provision to every believer. Every Christian has the armor of God, but not every Christian wears it. Armor doesn’t work if it’s not worn.
