Armour of God Cont.

It’s a little later than anticipated but as promised here is the rest of the armour of God.

 Warrior spirit

Gods say that he did not give us a spirit of cowardice or timidity and so we must learn to have the mindset of a warrior.

2 Timothy 1: 7 God didn't give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control


Isaiah 54:17 No weapons formed against me shall prosper and every person who rises up against me in judgement I will show to be wrong - take authority over your day, don’t allow people to cast judgement over your day and what’s more don't rise to it, justice is Gods.

Psalms 18:32 - 39 I love this prayer as I feel really strong afterwards, this is great to pray for a warrior spirit as it reaffirms our strength in Christ

Luke 10:19 God says Behold I have given you authority to trample upon serpents and scorpions, and physical mental strength over all the ability the enemy possesses and nothing shall harm you.

Philippians 4:3 we have to remember that we are not independent of God, he created us to dwell in us and we can't do anything without him, this is a great scripture to remind ourselves of just that.

Peace

The peace of God is not to be underestimated, God peace is a supernatural, without God in your life there is no way you can experience this, it is unexplainable. It just is. The following scriptures are for peace.

Isaiah 26:3 you will guard him and keep him in constant peace whose mind [both its inclination and its character] is stayed on you

John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; My [own] peace I now leave give and bequeath to you.

The peace of God is one thing, but we must also strive to have peaceful relationships with each other, by stripping ourselves of our former natures as tackled in the above post we can learn to live harmoniously with others, not taking offence and curbing our tongues.

Matthew 5:9 blessed are the maker and maintainers of peace for they should be called Sons of God.

Romans 14:19 so let us then definitely aim for and eagerly pursue what makes for harmony and for mutual up building of one another.

Faith

Matthew 7:24 so everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts upon them will be like a sensible man who built his house upon the rock

God should be the rock in our lives and his words the foundations which we build our houses, so when the devils come to kill, steal and destroy we cannot be moved but stand firm in our faith..

Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please and be satisfactory to him. For whoever would come near to God must believe he exists.  

Hebrews 4: 12 for the word that God speaks is alive and full of power ....it is sharper than any two-edged sword.  I love to back this up with Luke 1:37 for with God nothing is ever impossible and no word from God shall be without power or impossible of fulfilment.

The most powerful prayer we can pray is the word of God, speak his words into existence and into your hearts.

I hope this blesses someone, of course these scriptures aren't for everyone and maybe there are others you would like to add to your armour, that is for you to decide and build on.

God Bless xx
