EaglesDevotional - WEAPONS OF ARMOUR: THE SHIELD OF FAITH AND THE HELMET OF SALVATION.



 “Wherefore take unto you the whole Armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore ...taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation...” Ephesians 6:13-17.

Faith will protect you. It is an armour. What is faith?
Faith is believing that God says He will do what he says He will do even when your situations doesn't look like it.
Faith is a shield against all the fiery darts of the wicked. In other words, when the wicked throws anything (sickness, difficulties, delay, disappointment, failed expectations, etc) at you, you believe God beyond any shadow of doubt that you will surely be an overcomer and that belief in God will give you victory.

In 1 John5:4, the Bible says, “For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith”.
Your faith overcomes the world. The devil is the god of this world, which means your faith overcomes the devil).

How does faith come?
In Romans 10:17, “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God” When you hear God’s word, your faith builds.

Helmet Of Salvation:
Salvation is also an Armour. It means to be born again. With salvation, your head is covered. All the most important organs of your body are covered by the helmet of salvation. In Romans 1:16, Apostle Paul says, For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
If you are not born again you cannot have God’s protection. When you are saved and born again, you are covered by the power of God.

Prayer/Confession: In the name of Jesus, I quench every fiery dart of the wicked against my life by the fire of the Holy Ghost. I am covered by the blood of Jesus.

Further Reading: 1 Corinthians 1:21-25.


Words of wisdom: Faith is a shield against all the fiery darts of the wicked.
