Eph. 6:10-12 In verse 10 Paul begins to conclude his letter to the Ephesians. His words sound like a pre-battle speech. It begins with a charge to be strong, not in one’s own power, but in the mighty power of the Lord. We are told to suit up with the full armor of God. The apostle will reiterate this in a few verses, saying again, "put on the full armor." The reason for this armor is also given in theses verses. Our enemy is identified, not as flesh and blood, but rulers, authorities, powers and spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realm.  How can you be strong in "His mighty power?" When have you recognized the power of the enemy?  Eph. 6:13-17 In the next verses the writer gives another challenge in two sentences, he says to stand 3 different times. Paul then lists the armor that should be worn: The belt of truth The breast plate of righteousness  Feet fitted with readiness of the gospel of peace  Shield of faith Helmet of salvation  Sword of the spirit/word of God  Eph. 6:18-20 Havin
