[Faith-Talk] Armer of God Prayer

[Tony Sohl]

Hi i thought this prayer  might be helpful for anyone who is struggling 
or dealing with spiritual warfare.

prayer for putting on the armor of God
Heavenly Father, I come before You today, acknowledging that my 
struggle is not against flesh and  blood, but against the spiritual 
forces of evil in this world. Because I belong to You, I choose to  
clothe myself with the full armor of God, that I may be able to stand 
firm against the schemes of  the enemy.
The Belt of Truth: I fasten the belt of truth around my waist. May Your 
truth be my foundation,  keeping me honest, sincere, and anchored in Your Word.
The Breastplate of Righteousness: I put on the breastplate of 
righteousness. I thank You that  because of Jesus, I am covered and 
protected. Guard my heart, the wellspring of my life, against  
condemnation and impurity.
The Shoes of the Gospel of Peace: I strap on the shoes of the gospel of 
peace. Help me to walk in  the readiness and stability that only comes 
from knowing You, bringing Your peace wherever I go.
The Shield of Faith: I take up the shield of faith. With it, I will be 
able to extinguish all the  flaming arrows of the evil one—every lie, 
doubt, and fear that tries to distract me from Your  promises.
The Helmet of Salvation: I place the helmet of salvation upon my head. 
Protect my mind, Lord. Help  me to think thoughts that align with Your 
Kingdom and to rest in the assurance of my salvation.
The Sword of the Spirit: I take the sword of the Spirit, which is the 
Word of God. May I hide Your  promises in my heart, that I may speak 
Your truth and overcome every obstacle through the power of  Your Word.
I commit this day to You, fully equipped and empowered by Your Spirit. 
I stand ready to serve, to  love, and to walk in victory.
In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.

So when I fight, I'll fight on my knees
With my hands lifted high
Oh God, the battle belongs to You
And every fear I lay at Your feet
I'll sing through the night
Oh God, the battle belongs to You
