Notes

Put on the full armor of God: See Romans 13:12; 2 Corinthians 10:4–5. Only with the Lord's protection can a believer resist all of the devil's plans (compare 1 Peter 5:8–9).

Paul's final message reminds believers about the devil's opposition. Paul urges believers to protect themselves with all of God's armor.
