We can be strong in the Lord and the power of his might! God has given us all the resources that we need to be victorious in life. Here is a poem about Ephesians 6:10-18.
When times grow dark around us and the days seem long and drear,
As the god of this world spreads his lies of doubt, deceit, and fear,
Jesus Christ, our lord, now risen, shines a light within our hearts,
And we boldly speak the truth in love to quench those fiery darts.
We just stand, our loins about us, girt with truth, the Scriptures clear,
Our heart is fully covered, with His righteousness so dear,
Our feet shod with the good news, that brings peace, prepared to start,
Shielded by believing, victory our God imparts.
Are you wandering in darkness, without peace, no guide to steer?
Do you long to know His goodness, and to rest by His side near?
Jesus Christ has brought the victory, God’s sharp truth will be your chart,
Take the helmet of salvation, hide His Word within your heart.
We can put on God’s resources, every piece of godly gear,
Strong in the Lord, we shine as lights filled with good hope and cheer.
We pray persistently in the spirit, and our enemy we thwart,
Having done all, we stand boldly—from His grace we’ll not depart.
