The Armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-20) Printable Bible Lesson & Sunday School Activities

Children can relate to the concept of admiring soldiers…whether the idea of armor comes from ancient Roman days, Medieval knights, or modern-day military and police, donning a protective uniform is something kids appreciate. Wearing defensive gear offers a visual analogy to spiritual armor. It’s important to share with students that there is spiritual warfare going on around us. This might seem like an uncomfortable or frightening thought. However, when we know that God is on our side, we can be reassured with the peace of His power and presence. Nothing can hurt us when we have God’s armor!

Lesson focus: This lesson explains to students what the Armor of God is, and briefly describes the meaning and significance of each component of it. Children will grow to value the importance of spiritually protecting themselves with faith in Christ. God provides us with all we need to stand firm against the powers that go against us!

Law/Gospel Theme: God promises to protect us and be present with us in all things. Because of the salvation we have in Jesus, we know that we are kept safe even in the midst of spiritual attack. The blood of Christ covers us and our faith in Him shields us from all harm. Jesus guides and guards our hearts when we trust in Him. We gain the other pieces of “armor” (truth, righteousness, etc.) when we place our lives in His hands.
