From the book ‘Blessed from on High’:
Wherefore, lift up your heads and rejoice, and gird up your loins, and take upon you the whole armor, that ye may be able to withstand the evil day. . . . Stand, therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, having on the breastplate of righteousness, and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace, which I have sent my angels to commit unto you; Taking the shield of faith wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of my Spirit, which I will pour out upon you; and be agreed as touching all things whatsoever ye ask of me, and be faithful until I come, and ye shall be caught up, that where I am ye shall be also. Amen (Doctrine and Covenants 27:15-18)
Surely we must put on the whole armor of God, consisting, as Paul said, of truth, righteousness , peace, [and] faith with the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Because of our faith in a living, personal, and powerful God, we do not fear the final outcome in our fight against the emissaries of Satan, though we must ever be alert, united, and on guard. (Hugh B. Brown, The Abundant Life [Salt Lake City: Bookcraft 1965], 73

We must put on the armor of God. Prepare every needful thing to be able to withstand the evil day—Ephesians 6:11-18; 1 Nephi 15:24; 3 Nephi 18:18
