Putting on the Armour of God Daily!

This Blog has been born of the collective minds of the members of New Life Covenant Church, located in Carbondale, Illinois. We would like to invite you to come to the table, hungry for spiritual food, found in the Word of God.

Starting with Ephesians 6:5-20
5) Servants be obedient to them that are your masters according to to the flesh with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ; 6)Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; 7) With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men; 8) Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free. 9) And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening; knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with him. 10) Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 11) Put on the whole arour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12) For we wrestle not against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 13) Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all to stand. 14) Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15) And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16) Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17) And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18) Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; 19) And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel. 20) For which I am an ambassador in bonds; that therein I may speak boldly as I ought to speak.

This chapter and verses reflect the vision and message that inspired the naming of this blog. As the Knights of the round table fought for their King; We will be putting on the Armour of God Daily to fight the evils of this world & bring Glory to Christ our King. As his servants it is our mission to bring the lost to the table to have communion with Christ. Feed on the Bread of Life!

Unlimited seating available; No reservation needed; No waiting!

I encourage all who visit this blog to follow and contribute. As it was with King Arthur and his knights, we fellowship at this round table. We exchange ideas as equals in the eyes of the Creator. Just as the legendary knights in their day, we use this round table to spend time with our King, face to face. Come join us. The Lord awaits...
