Christ's Armor

Christ’s Armor
The night before the battle of my first crusade
With my hand on my sword, I knelt and I prayed
Opening my eyes I looked, at the handle in my hand
And loosening my grip, I saw the image of a man
His helmet of salvation was a crown of thorns
His breastplate of righteousness, a side that was torn
And shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace
A nail had been driven, through both of his feet
His shield of faith, out-stretched, hands nailed to a cross
And loins girded with the truth; a bloody woolen cloth
The sword of the spirit, the Word of our God
His was the life He had given, and the path He’d trod
I tightened my grip, I lowered my head and I cried
Not from fear of the battle, but for me, that He died.
The fighting was fierce, especially to me, the son of a farmer
But I rejoiced in Christ’s victory, being clothed in His armor

His victory is
our Hope against hope,
our the strength in weakness,
our sufficiency in deficiency,
our light in darkness
our life in death.
great work

Jeanne Guyon (1648-1717) wrote powerfully about the need for an intimate relationship with Almighty God, including this: “He who has a pure heart will never cease to pray; and he who will be constant in prayer, shall know what it is to have a pure heart.”
