"Therefore put on the full armor of God...." -Ephesians 6:13
Have you ever felt spiritually exposed....vulnerable....or susceptible to the wiles of the enemy? We all have. Can you imagine waking up in the morning, showering, eating breakfast, finding your keys, driving to work, walking into your place of employment....and just as you are entering you suddenly realize that you forgot to put your clothes on? What stark reality! Well, as the redeemed, we are that blatantly exposed, with even graver consequences (believe it or not), when we are without the "full armor of God." The only difference....9 times out of 10, when we are spiritually exposed to the enemy, it has been a slow and gradual process of yielding to the enemy. In other words, most of us (myself included) do not get the shock factor....we simply find ourselves spiritually stuck, stripped, emotionally barren and dry. We can walk around for days, months, or even seasons fully exposed. Bottom-line, you may want to check out Ephesians 6:13-18....get your armor on!
