Many of you, My children, ask for My armor because you are told to, but you do not understand how to use it. You do not understand what it really is for. It is time to polish your armor. It is time to get it fully prepared for battle. It is time to understand how to fully use your armor the way that I designed it to be used. It is time to fight. It is time to know exactly how to stay protected at all times. It is time to know how to stay on guard and on watch at every moment of everyday.
As you get out your armor to polish it, I want you to take time with each piece. I want you to polish it in My anointing and to seal it in the blood of My Son. I want you to take each separate piece and allow Me to show you what each piece is for, how to use it, and how each piece is just as critical to have as a whole. I want you to allow the Holy Spirit to show you all the intended uses that the armor has. It is time to fully understand the armor that I have given you.
This is a time that I am asking you to give Me your time to come before Me and get completely battle prepared for the storms that are here and the ones that are coming. You need to know the significance of each piece that must be used as a whole. You cannot forget any piece and decide that one piece is more important without the other. Your armor must be all together as a whole. If you do not use one piece or do not understand the armor, each and every piece, and its function then you will be left open to be attacked and wounded. You will be open and not fully protected. The enemy will know that the armor is not fully intact and will know where he can get to you.
You cannot be caught without your armor. You cannot be caught with a weak spot in your armor. You must be fully armed and fully prepared. It is crunch time and time to come to the front line. You cannot allow any open areas for the enemy to cause you to fall. You need to understand just how important it is to be completely protected at this time.
I have promised you, My faithful children, to keep you safe. I have promised to give you the tools that you will need to survive. Your armor is one of the most important tools that I have given you to not just protect you, but to also fight back. To be fully ready and to be fully equipped you must understand the equipment that I am giving you. You must give me this time to show you what you are working with. You must be fully aware on how to use it and you will only be able to do this by understanding it.
Take this time with Me and do what I am asking you to do. You will need this armor each and every day. You will need to know when to use it. You will need to know when to strike and when to shield yourself. Along with the armor, you will also need the Holy Spirit right next to you to guide you through the battles that you are and will be fighting. You will need both of these gifts that I have given you to come out victorious. You will need to understand both of these gifts and know how to use them effectively to be able to get through the things that I am telling you are happening.
You need to also explain to your children about how to use My armor and how important it is. You need to share with them the depths of the armor and equip them with the knowledge on how to use it. You need to get them prepared. You need to teach them these survival skills. They need to know. They need to know about the armor and the Holy Spirit. Do not waste time. They need to understand the armor and how to listen to the Holy Spirit just as much as you do. I have told you to prepare My children and I am expecting you to do just that. Prepare them and yourselves. No one can be caught unprepared, off guard, and unprotected.
Do not get caught off guard. Do not allow there to be a weak link or a weak area in your armor. Stay protected at all times and come to an understanding of the tools and equipment that I am giving you. I am requiring you to take this seriously and taking the time to get before My face and allow Me to show these things to you.
It is time to suit up as the soldiers that I have called you to be. Just as soldiers know what they are working with and have been taught survival skills and how to come out victorious, so have I been teaching you. It is time to get all the finalized teaching and understanding that you will need to be protected and to survive the darkness. You need to tie up all these loose ends that I am telling you to do and come to the front line and fight.
