Title: The Whole Armour.

-
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Ephesians 6:11 KJV
Devotion: Apostle Paul in his counsel to you and me this morning wants us to be ready to face devil and his cohorts. He tells us to be ready for the spiritual and physical battle of life, battle against the number enemy which is self.
 Paul likens the preparation to the Roman soldier saying we must put on the whole armour of god. Whole means everything not 99.999% but 100% by which we will be able to withstand the tricks of the devil. 
  There are very important steps to take to achieve this 100%, these which include: 1) As a child of God must standing for truth always no matter the outcome, 2) we must live right always both at home, our place of work, church of God and everywhere. People must see Christ in our righteous living.
3) A child of God must be loving and be ready to spread the gospel of peace,(Christ) home or abroad. 4) The shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked ie by faith overcome the Fear of the wicked. 5) Take the helmet of salvation, 6) the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God must be on our lips all the time. 7) We must pray always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints (Ephesians 6:14‭-‬18 KJV)
  Dearly beloved, it is only by living as above that we will be able to overcome ourselves (sinful lives) and devil the wicked one.

Psalms 90:10  The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. Devotional: Late music legend – Peter Tosh sang a song with this title many years ago. It came to mind yesterday while I listened to a beautifully delivered sermon at a burial. I therefore penned this devotional on same title. Do not be deceived, at a point in your life you’ll fly away.   There comes a day when the tapestry of your earthly existence is folded.
