Finally, my brethren, be strong in The Lord, and in the power
of His might.

Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against
the wiles of the devil.

to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with Truth, and having

Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to
quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

is The Word Of God:

Praying always with all prayer and supplication in The Spirit, and

saints;
