Armor of God prayer

The Armor of God prayer is a prayer found in the Bible in the book of Ephesians, chapter 6, verses 10-18. It is a prayer for protection and strength, and is often recited by Christians as a way to put on the "armor of God" and stand firm against spiritual battles. The prayer describes different pieces of armor that represent different virtues and qualities, such as truth, righteousness, and faith.

Prayer

Here is the full text of the Armor of God prayer:

"Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord's people."

Purpose

The purpose of the Armor of God prayer is to ask for protection and strength against the spiritual battles and temptations that Christians may face in their lives. The prayer is based on the idea that Christians are engaged in a spiritual battle against the forces of evil, and that they need to be equipped with the "armor of God" in order to stand firm and resist temptation.

The different pieces of armor mentioned in the prayer represent different virtues and qualities that are necessary for this spiritual battle, such as truth, righteousness, and faith. By praying this prayer, Christians are asking God to help them put on the armor of God and to give them the strength and protection they need to overcome the challenges they face.
