"Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might.  Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the evil one.

Are you dressed for battle today?

Are you ready and guarded with defense scriptures?

Is your mind guarded?

Is your heart guarded?

Do you have your belt on? Knowing that Jesus is truth and His love surrounds you?

Do you have your shoes of peace on, ready to walk in peace today guided by the Holy Spirit?

Are you shielded with the word of GOD and the Blood of Jesus Christ that no weapon formed against you will prosper?

Are you ready to walk in love today, knowing you are secure in Christ?

Say this prayer daily before you start your day and you will see a change in your spirit; you will be more patient, calmer, forgiving, and loving.
