"Stay ready, so you don't have to get ready," is an adage that stemmed out of hip hop culture that encouraged people to prepare for the inevitable. Now as simple as this proverb should be to follow it's still perplexing that as a society we fail to fully assess our daily situations from a spiritual lens. Instead our weapon of choice becomes impulsivity, which fuels dysfunction. Furthermore, we forget that this journey of life is one that calls for mental, physical, and spiritual preparation even before we rise out of bed. The full armor of God should be our first method of defense to overcome obstacles, and directly face our oppositions. These set of divine weapons allow us to be fully aligned with God, while being prepared and positioned for any type of disruption. However, when there has been a lack of instruction on how to effectively use this armor, then the opportunity to be victorious is unachievable. As you explore, study, and apply each piece of armor it will prompt and compel you to confidently tackle any adversity that emerges, so your peace of mind will not be compromised.
