“Put on the whole armor of God so that you can stand against the wiles of the devil, because our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against the spirits of evil in high places. For this, take the whole armor of God, so that you can withstand on an evil day and, having overcome everything, stand. " Ephesians 6: 11-13, NIV

Every Christian should know how to fight evil. God gives us detailed instructions on how to deal with evil.

Steps

  1. 1 Belt (of truth): “Become, girding your loins with the truth” Ephesians 6:14. The belt of truth includes two places; our hearts and our minds. Truth keeps us safe in Christ and makes all other parts of the armor effective. The belt of truth holds our armor in place. Dedicate each day to entering the light of God's truth. "Instruct me, Lord, on Your way, and I will walk in Your truth!" Psalm 86:11
  2. 2 Armor (Righteousness): “Putting on the breastplate of righteousness” Ephesians 6:14 - The armored soldier goes into battle with confidence and boldness. The devil constantly attacks with lies, accusations and reminders of past sins. Without the armor of righteousness, they will penetrate your heart. Realize who you are in Christ Jesus. Come boldly into His presence (Hebrews 4:16).
  3. 3 Shoes (for Peace and Preparation): “And with your feet shod with the readiness to preach the gospel of peace” Ephesians 6:15. Shoes allow us to hold on freely and without fear, while we turn our full attention to the battle at hand. She helps us in our movement and defense. God gives us shoes to propel us forward to proclaim the true peace that is available in Christ. Prepare yourself to follow the Lord no matter what.
  4. 4 Shield (of Faith): "And above all, take the shield of faith, with which you can quench all the fiery arrows of the wicked one." Ephesians 6:16 - The shield not only protects our entire body, but also our armor. The shield of faith has a very specific function, which the Bible presents quite clearly: to extinguish all the fiery darts of the wicked one. Not some, but all of them. The shield moves with an attack regardless of direction.
  5. 5 Helmet (rescue): "And take the helmet of salvation." Ephesians 6:17 - Satan's Purpose: Your Mind. Satan's weapon: a lie. The enemy wants to make us doubt God and our salvation. The helmet protects our minds from doubting God's truth that saves us. “But we, being sons of the day, let us be sober, putting on the armor of faith and love and the helmet of the hope of salvation” 1 Thessalonians 5: 8.
  6. 6 Sword (Spirit): Take "the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God." Ephesians 6:17 - The sword is the only offensive weapon in armor, but it is also a defense tool. Strongholds, arguments and thoughts are all weapons that the enemy uses against us. With the Spiritual Sword, the word of God, people are equipped to fight all of them. You must believe in the truth of God's Word. Be confident in the value of God's Word. Have hunger and desire for it.
  7. 7 Prayer. “With all prayer and supplication, pray at all times in the Spirit, and strive for this very thing with all constancy and supplication for all the saints” Epistle to Ephesians 6:18
