Ephesians 6:10-12

Dear Father, King, and Commander of the holy armies,

Though you have lifted me up to reign in the heavenly places with Christ, remind me that your armies are engaged in a fierce struggle to take earth for heaven.

Don't let me relax as if there is no war going on. This is not a time of peace. Never let me let down my guard and fail to look to my armament. May I be strong in you and in the strength of your might!

In the name of Jesus, the faithful warrior, I pray. Amen.
