Eph. 6:11‑18• 11Put on the panoply of God, that ye may be able to stand against the stratagems of the devil;
 12for our wrestling is not against blood and flesh, but against the principalities, against the authorities, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual [hosts] of wickedness in the heavenly [places].
 13On this account take up the panoply of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having fully done all, to stand.
 14Stand therefore, having girt about your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,
 15and having shod your feet with [the] preparation of the gospel of peace;
 16besides all, having taken up the shield of faith with which ye will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one;
 17and receive the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is God's word;
 18with all prayer and supplication praying in every season in [the] Spirit, and thereunto watching with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints, (Eph. 6:11‑18)
