Being Picky


In my last blog, I talked about the NFL fine for wear orange shoes.  Since orange shoes are not inherently better or worse than black shoes, I assume that the reason that they are illegal in the NFL, is that the NFL is “being picky”.  Since football is a team sport, they want everybody to look alike with no individual player standing out or drawing attention to one’s self. 
Is that why God want us to wear His Armor.  Is He just picky?  Does He want us to all look alike?
I DON”T THINK SO!!!
You are free to use any armor you want.  You will not be fined.  You will not be punished.  You won’t go to hell! 
BUT
The devil will eat you up! 
God’s armor is the only armor that works against the devil.
WHY?
“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.”
You are no match for the devil with any earthly armor.  You will fall every time.  He will run over you!  If you want to stand against Satan you must put on God’s armor.
“Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”
