If you’re like me I’ve always thought the armor of God was for me as an individual Christian to put on. However this armor is for the new man, the body of Jesus Christ. If we’re going to do battle with the enemy in these last days we must see the church putting on this armor. You cannot stand against the enemy alone. It is the church that stands against this ancient foe who in these last days is intensifying his efforts to thwart God‘s eternal purpose, which is the manifestation of The building of God,the body of Christ on earth. 10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.

11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.

12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.

13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. (Ephesians 6:10-13 ESV)
