19) If you are willing and obedient,
you will eat the
best from the land;
20) but if you resist and
rebel,
you will be devoured by the sword."
For the mouth
of
the LORD has spoken.
Ephesians 6: 10-16
10) Finally, be strong in the Lord an
in his mighty
power.
11) Put on the full armor of God
so that
you
can take your stand against the devil's schemes.
12)
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood,
but
against the rulers, against the authorities,
against
the powers of this dark world
and against the
spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
13)
Therefore put on the full armor of God,
so that
when
the day of evil comes,
you may be able to stand
your
ground,
and after you have done everything, to
stand.
14) Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled
around your waist,
with the breastplate of
righteousness in place,
15) and with your feet
fitted
with the readiness that comes from the gospel of
peace.
16) In addition to all this, take up the
shield of faith,
with which you can extinguish
all
the flaming arrows of the evil one.
