Introduction slide,
-Read the passage to the students about Paul telling the Ephesians of the Armour of GOD.

-Grab a volunteer to assist in the dressing of my tactical gear to go along with the slides.

Start with the belt of truth
The belt holds everything together and holds equipment the soldier may need,
-Have the volunteer put on the gun belt with no weapon but all the pouches

-As christians we must hold on to all things that is good

The breast plate protects the torso which has all the vital organs of the body.
- have the volunteer place the plate carrier with the word "righteousness" on it.

Speak about with out righteousness we leave ourselves open but with righteousness like the vest we can protect against satans attacks

The shoes protect our feet, so that we can carry the gospel of Christ to others.

John 14:27- Peace I leave with you; my peace i give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you.

Jesus gave us peace and in the bible tells us to go and give peace to others, as we see the spikes in the shoes allows us to stand fast to the gospel.

The shield protects us from outside physical items, the shield of faith protects us from satans on slaught of fiery arrows to make us sin.

The shield protects but we must take it up and have the faith to carry it to protect us from sin and satan

Have volunteer hold on to the shield with "Faith" on it.

Hebrews 11:1-Now faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen.

Have the volunteer place on the helmet

The helmet protects the mind and the head from injury, throw fake brick at the head.
Protects our thoughts
Salvation gives us that we are saved from sin
Romans 3:23- for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.

John 3:16-

We have the commandments in our mind to help us remember what we are suppose to do.

Have the sword with the words "sword of Spirit" But then change it out with the bible in the volunteers hands

Gods word is truth, it cuts through the defense of sin and satan.

It is our duty to discover the truth by reading and memorizing scriptures from the bible.

Conclusion to ask the kids if they are ready by memorizing scripture, having faith in the truth of GOD'S word.

End

Romans 8:31- What then shall we say to these things? IF God is for us, who can be against us
