Warriors, when your breastplate is in place, tighten your belt of Truth, which Creator Yahweh has given you through his Sacred Writings. Shod your feet with fine moccasins in preparation to face the enemy. Stand against the wicked one with the firm-footed stability, the promptness, and the readiness produced by the Gospel of peace.
Pick up your shield of saving faith that is able to quench all the flaming arrows of the wicked one. And then take the helmet of salvation that Creator Yahweh has given you, and the sword that Yahweh’s Spirit wields, which is the Sacred Writings, the Bible. Now, you are ready to stand.
Stand firm, therefore, and hold your ground.
Raise your voice and pray. Shout victory against the rulers and authorities of this dark world that will soon come to an end. Let the warrior’s cry be heard throughout the land. Do not allow yourself to be distracted by the endless cares and troubles of this world. Such cares and troubles will soon pass away, but the Word and love of Creator Yahweh stand firm forever.
