    10Exhortations for Spiritual Warfare Finally, be strengthened in the Lord and in the strength of his power.

    11Clothe yourselves with the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.

    12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavens.

    15by fitting your feet with the preparation that comes from the good news of peace,

    16and in all of this, by taking up the shield of faith with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
