God Ensured that Beleivers had the Weapons Necessary to Fight the Good Fight
For some Christians, the concept of warfare is unpleasant. Usually, the Christian message is about love, forgiveness, salvation by grace, telling people about the victorious life Jesus came to bring. All of these are important elements of Christianity, but there is something critical for Christians to understand -- there can be no victory without a fight.

Putting on the Righteousness of God for Protection and Provision
To put on the breastplate of righteousness, Christians must know who they are in Christ and they should be bold in asking God for help, protection and provision. Believer should pray and intercede for themselves and on behalf of others, and they should be willing to take off every layer of the word and replace them with the good things of God.
