Good Morning!
 
What will you be wearing today?                    (text message:  Ephesians 6: 11 - 18)
 
I want to continue sharing about the "Armor of God", which is one of many spiritual "garments" that The Lord has instructed us to "put on".  We have already talked about two other things that God has placed in our "spiritual closet" for us to put on . . . which is the "garment of Praise" and the "Robe of Righteousness".  Then we went to our "closet" and took the "Armor of God" off of the "hanger" (Ephesians 6: 11-18), and started finding out about each piece of it. I will let you refer back to the earlier Encouragements that reveal to us about the "belt , the vest, and the shoes".
 
We have one more thing to "put on" and that is the "hat".  The other two pieces of our armor are things that God tells us to "pick up"  and carry in our hands!  Oh! I am loving the way that The Holy Spirit is revealing all of this to us!  Even in the "natural" . . . once we get dressed for the day, there are still some things that we have to "pick up" and carry in our hands in order to be fully prepared for the day!  You know . . . like the "keys" to the car, or a "briefcase", or a "purse", or a "list", or an "umbrella", and of course . . . don't forget your "Bible"!
 
Okay!  Now, before we talk about those things that we are to "pick up" . . . let's get back to the other piece of the "armor" that we need to "put on"!  I have been calling it the "hat" . . . it is the "helmet of salvation"!  Anyone knows that a "helmet" is designed to PROTECT our heads.  Right?  Well there is a "spiritual" connection here . . . think about it!  What is in our head?  Our mind, which includes our "thoughts", which is the very area that the enemy attacks first!  I have so much to share about this, and I cannot do it all in this one Encouragement, so I will have to continue this in my next Encouragement on Wednesday.  You know what?  I knew, in my spirit, that when I started this series on our "spiritual garments", that it would be an "on-going" message . . . so if you are really interested in finding out what is in your "spiritual closet", then you will just have to be patient with me and the Holy Spirit to let you know what you have "hanging" in there!  See you Wednesday ~~~
 
Have a Blessed Day!!           (Your "helmet" is very important!)             In His Love, Luanne
