   "WOMAN OF VALOR"

29 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is              fleeting: but a woman who fears the          Lord is to be praised.
31 Honor her for all that her hands have       done and let her works bring her               praise at the city gate                                               Proverbs 31:29-31


“Spiritual warfare is very real. There is a furious, fierce, and ferocious battle raging in the realm of the spirit between the forces of God and the forces of evil. Warfare happens every day, all the time. Whether you believe it or not, you are in a battlefield. You are in warfare.” 
                     Pedro Okoro
            Equip me, Lord: Ephesians 6:14-18

1. With the belt of truth. May your truth rule in my        heart and be in my mind and on my lips today.

2. With the breastplate of righteousness.  Apart from     You there is no righteousness, but through Jesus I     have been “born again” and made righteous in          Your sight. May I live as a righteous person.

3. With feet fitted with the readiness that comes from      the Gospel of peace. May I reflect the Gospel in        my words and actions, that through me, with my        every encounter, others may be drawn one step          closer to You.

4.  With the shield of faith. May I take You at Your        word concerning promises about the present and        future—promises of everlasting love, abundant          life, and so much more.

5.  With the helmet of salvation. Remind me that            nothing can separate me from Your love and that        I’ve been saved by grace. 

In Your grace, help me to say “no” to all ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live a self-controlled, upright, and godly life (Titus 2:12,13).

6. And with the sword of the Spirit, the Word of             God. May Your Holy Spirit reign in my life and         bring to my mind just the right Bible verses to be       in my heart and on my lips. May I be “filled with       the Spirit” and ready with Scripture as You were,       Jesus, when the devil tempted You.

Finally, keep me in an attitude of prayer. Remind me to “pray in the Spirit on all occasions.” Cause me to be alert and always praying for the saints; to be joyful and to give thanks in everything.                                          (see 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18).                                         IN JESUS NAME. AMEN!!!
