#Bibles #Verses on #TotalSubmissionToGod : First, #believers must plan to utilize all tools available to them.

One or two pieces are not #sufficient, especially in light of the Second #Qualification, which is the plans of #Satan.

Only with every piece of the #ArmorOfGod can a #believer adequately stand against the schemes of the #Devil.

#John 14:10

First is the idea of #God being “in” #Jesus. In this context, the meaning is that of character—in other words, Jesus acts perfectly according to the will of God.

Nothing Jesus says or does #contradicts the idea that He is God and His #actions confirm that He is #acting #according to the Father’s will.

#Bibles #Verses on #TotalSubmissionToGod : We must #surrender our battles to #achieve our own #desires, and turn to serve others instead.

Finally, we must #resist the #devil. James’s promise is clear: If we quit the path of the world and resist the devil, he will run away from us.

#Ephesians 6:11

Here Paul introduces the #ArmorOfGod, a famous and often-used metaphor from the #Bible. Paul begins with two #important qualifiers in this verse.

These give a useful #perspective on how these various components are meant to function, and why they are #important. His #admonition to “put on” these pieces are also #instructive: #Christians have to be #deliberate about using these #implements.
