Wait for just a little bit, though, because right now, here's Dr. Michael Youssef to begin today's teaching time.

We saw the three permanent ones that are permanently on. It never be taken off ever, ever, ever, the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, and the shoes of the gospel.

We saw the three that are always to be in a state of readiness for war, for warfare.

Three must always be ready, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the spirit.

So now I want you to imagine, okay, this is the imagining time, okay, that a Roman soldier, he's got all the equipment, everything he needs to be in that

battle. And he finds himself in the battlefield in a very smoke-filled environment. I'm talking

about thick smoke all around him. Smoke that makes it difficult

for him even to breathe. He's well equipped. All the equipments are in the right place.

But he's constantly coughing and clearing his throat because the smoke is just so thick.

He's equipped, but he has blurry eyes from the smoke.

You say, where are you going with this, Michael?

I'm glad you asked.

It would be a good question.
