1. Ephesians 6:10-18
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armour of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness…

So also will it be with this evil generation.”
