In Bible times soldiers would wear very heavy armor. In fact, when David went to fight the giant Goliath he couldn't wear the armor because it was too heavy. These days soldiers don't wear armor, but you might find it interesting to know that many Christians wear armor everyday and it would be a good idea if you did too.

How can you wear armor? This armor is so neat, it's like having special powers that are invisible! When you imagine yourself putting on the armor of God each day it will help you against the devil and things you shouldn't do. But the only way the armor will work is if Jesus lives inside you.

The devil wants us to mess up and do things God doesn't want us to do. He might try to do that by getting you interested in violent video games, shows on TV or movies that show people doing things that are sinful and try to make them look like fun, or pressure to do things from other kids that we know God wouldn't want us to do.

These are some of the ways that the devil tries to trick you into doing things we shouldn't (this is called sin). By putting on the armor of God, you will be able to stand up to these things and do what is right. The armor will give you God's help to fight against the bad in the world.
