A Wake­Up Call to Christians 209<br />

on the armor <strong>of</strong> God daily. The armor <strong>of</strong> God goes over your spirit man<br />

<strong>and</strong> brings tremendous protection. Demons <strong>and</strong> angels can see if you<br />

have your armor on or not. You can simply pray something like this for<br />

the armor:<br />

“Father I ask you to put the full armor <strong>of</strong> God on me today. Repair any<br />

<strong>of</strong> the armor that has been damaged in battle. I ask you to polish it <strong>and</strong><br />

make it ready for battle. I thank you for it in Jesus’ name.”<br />

Then you simply receive it in faith.<br />

The armor <strong>of</strong> God<br />

I really haven’t talked much about the armor, but I want to here. Satan<br />

<strong>of</strong>fers a counterfeit armor within his kingdom. There seems to be a<br />

helmet <strong>and</strong> shield <strong>of</strong> great pride <strong>and</strong> a breastplate <strong>of</strong> unrighteousness.<br />

There is a cloak <strong>of</strong> deception, boots <strong>of</strong> anger (wrath <strong>and</strong> destruction),<br />

crooked sword <strong>of</strong> criticism (sl<strong>and</strong>er <strong>and</strong> unrighteous judgment), a belt<br />

<strong>of</strong> lies <strong>and</strong> a mouth speaking forth lies. Satanic spirits <strong>and</strong> satan’s servants<br />

(satanists) seem to have an armor similar to this.<br />

Concerning the armor <strong>of</strong> God. The armor <strong>of</strong> God is one <strong>of</strong> the most<br />

incredibly important areas, especially in regard to protection, that we<br />

have available to us in Christianity. We have the incredible weapons <strong>of</strong><br />

Jesus’ name, his blood, the word <strong>of</strong> God (the sword), spiritual authority<br />

as sharing with Christ’s victory at the cross, praise (which is seen as a<br />

spear or long range weapon in scripture), <strong>and</strong> the anointing (which is<br />

seen as a battle ax in scripture). Of course prayer <strong>and</strong> fasting are the<br />

most powerful weapons because they move God’s h<strong>and</strong>. When God<br />

decides he is going to war, nothing <strong>and</strong> nobody better be in his way. In<br />

regards to prayer, the Amplified Bible reads as follows James 5:16<br />

“The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer <strong>of</strong> a righteous man makes<br />

tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].” Isn’t that incredible!<br />

James then goes on to give the example to us that Elijah was<br />

a man just like you <strong>and</strong> I, but when he prayed great things happen. In<br />

verse 18 the word used for prayer in the Greek is proseuchomai. It<br />

means more than just petition, but it also implies worship as well.<br />

There is something so powerful when we mix praise (dance, shouts,<br />

faster upbeat songs), worship (slower more intimate songs), prayer<br />

(petition), <strong>and</strong> intercession (st<strong>and</strong>ing in the gap) together as a fragrant<br />

incense unto God. This type <strong>of</strong> prayer moves heaven. When the Holy<br />

Spirit is in full charge this mix is beautiful. I lead a small prayer group<br />

weekly <strong>and</strong> the Holy Spirit mixes this incense every week. We have<br />

seen mighty answers to prayer, great deliverances, <strong>and</strong> mighty victories<br />

in warfare.
