Ephesians 6 v 10-18
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his power. 11 Put on the whole armour of God, so that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For our struggle is not against enemies of blood and flesh, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers of this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armour of God, so that you may be able to withstand on that evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. 14 Stand therefore, and fasten the belt of truth around your waist, and put on the breastplate of righteousness. 15 As shoes for your feet put on whatever will make you ready to proclaim the gospel of peace. 16 With all of these, take the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
18 Pray in the Spirit at all times in every prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert and always persevere in supplication for all the saints.

Picture
A picture of many people gathered around the Church of Light trying to defend her.
Our Blessed Mother with the help of the Holy Angels is giving us the full armour of God.
"My Children
Take up the armour which is impervious to all arrows or rocks, you may be battered but will remain unbeaten. Then my children take up the weapons of Faith, the Holy Eucharist, the Sacrament of Confession and the Daily recitation of the Holy Rosary and if you are able commit to fasting when possible, for those unable to fast please offer God the Father little sacrifices. My little ones defend with your prayers my Priest sons, your Country, your families, all poor souls who are far from my Son and lastly pray for your own souls that they may always cooperate with the Holy Spirit.
