Lord Jesus, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God
because I know that my battle is not against flesh and blood but against
rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual
forces of evil in the unseen world. Thank you that you have made it
possible for me to be strong in your mighty power and to stand against
all that the evil one would throw against me this day.
In Jesus Name, I put on the belt of truth and pray that I may be centered
in and encircled by your truth today. By your power, enable me to walk
in your truth and to give no place to deception or the lies of the enemy.
Protect me by the truth of your Word.
I put on the breastplate of righteousness. I praise you, Lord Jesus, that I
am covered with your righteousness today in my body, soul and spirit. I
now pray that by the power of the Holy Spirit, my life would show forth
the righteous fruit of Your presence. Guard my heart, for it is the
wellspring of life (Proverbs 4:23). Strengthen and protect the most
vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good and noble so I
might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy.
I put on the shoes of peace. I choose to stand on the firm foundation of
Jesus Christ and the good news of his amazing grace. In Jesus’ name, I
claim over my heart and mind the peace of God that transcends all
understanding (Philippians 4:7). I cast down every anxious thought
today, and as I walk in the gospel of peace, I pray that you would make
me ready to share your good news with others.
I take up the shield of faith this day and in your name, I extinguish every
dart and arrow by which the enemy would seek to take me down
spiritually, physically, mentally, or emotionally. I lift the shield of faith
against every arrow directed at me, my family, my business, my
possessions, or any part of my domain. I bind every fearful thought in

Jesus’ name and choose rather to walk by faith and not by sight (2
Corinthians 5:7).
I put on the helmet of salvation and pray that you would protect my
mind from thoughts that could lead me astray. I choose to take every
thought captive to Jesus Christ and to reject any thought that is not from
You (2 Corinthians 10:5). Transform my mind by the power of your
Word and grant me a hope-saturated mind so that I may truly overflow
with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit (Romans 15:13).
Finally, I take up the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.
Please give me the insight, wisdom, and revelation to wield your Word
skillfully against every scheme of the enemy. Thank you that your Word
on my lips has the power to defeat every attack of the enemy!
Thank you, Lord Jesus, for equipping me with everything I need to win
my battles this day! I praise you that I am protected today by the armor
of God. I now claim your promise that no weapon formed against me
shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). In Jesus’ mighty name, amen!
