How to Put On the Armor of God: Winning the War in Your Mind

How do you actually put on the armor of God when the real battle is happening in your mind? In this message, Australian speaker Rebekah Roux walks through Ephesians 6:10–18 piece by piece — the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shoes of the gospel of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit — showing how each one is a weapon for the spiritual warfare Christians face every day.

Rebekah opens with her own story of overcoming fear to share her faith with a group of workmen as a teenager, then unpacks how this war isn't fought with flesh and blood but is won or lost in our thoughts. Drawing from Ephesians, Romans, James, and Philippians, she traces how truth, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation, and the Word of God work together to guard the mind and renew it against the enemy's lies.

Using the examples of Adam and Eve, Jesus in the wilderness, and her own struggle with guilt after making mistakes, Rebekah shows what it looks like to lay the armor aside — and what it looks like to pick it back up through confession and forgiveness. The message closes with a call to stand firm, put on the full armor of God, and keep fighting until the battle is won.
