The Weapons of our Warfare ...

2 Corinthians 10:4 (NLT) We use God’s mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, 

to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning 

and to destroy false arguments.

Ref: Debbie McDaniel A prayer summary of the Armour of God—

Today we put on the full armor to guard our lives against spiritual attack.

We put on the belt of truth to protect against lies and deception.

We put on the breastplate of righteousness to protect our hearts 

from the temptations we face.

We put the shoes of the gospel of peace on our feet, 

so that we’re ready to take Your Light wherever You send us this day. 

We choose to walk in the peace & freedom of Your Holy Spirit 

and not be overcome with fear and anxious thoughts.

We take up Your shield of faith that will extinguish all the darts and threats 

hurled our way by the evil one. We believe in Your Power to protect us.

We put on the helmet of salvation, which covers our minds and thoughts, 

reminding us we are children of the day, forgiven, set free, and 

saved by the Grace of Christ Jesus.

We take up the sword of the Spirit, Your very Word, 

the one offensive weapon given to us for battle, 

which has Divine Power to demolish strongholds for it is alive, active, 

and sharper than any double-edged sword.

We wear the mantle of prayer remembering to pray constantly 

in Your Precious Name.

We ask for Your Help in remembering that we wear Your full armor every day.

 Forgive us God for the times we’ve been unprepared, too busy to care, or 

trying to fight and wrestle in our own strength. 

Thank You that we never fight alone: You are constantly at work on our behalf, 

shielding, protecting and strengthening us, exposing deeds of darkness, 

bringing to light what needs to be known and covering us from the cruel attacks 

we face even when we’re unaware. 

In the Powerful Name of Jesus I pray this prayer, Amen.
