Ephesians 6:11 NASB "Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil."I happened to run across my old turnout gear! Today's verse speaks to us about safety, so when the schemes come, we will be safe and able to stand firm. It has been a long time since I put my fire department turn out gear on and when I ran a crossed it, I began to think of the days when I ran into burning buildings. Without putting the full turnout gear on, the mask for breathing, the gloves etc, I would have been open to injury. I can't understand why I would go about this life without the protection God has allowed me to have, the full armor found in the verse for today. There will be schemes out there that are meant for injury, pain, and suffering but if we put the whole armor on, we can even walk through fire! Don't get caught with our pants down, let's put it all on and stand firm against whatever satan throws at us! peace, tom
