We are suppose to dress each day in the following:
Put on the whole armor of God,that we may be able to stand against
the wiles of the devil.For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood,
but against principalities,against powers,against the rulers of the
darkness of this age,against spiritual hosts of wickness in the
heavenly places.Therefore take up the whole armor of God that you
may be able to withstand in rhe evil day, and having done all to stand.
Stand therefore,having girded your waist with truth,having put on the
breastplate of righteous,and having shod your feetwith the preparation
of the gospel of peace,above all taking the shield of faith,with which you
you will be able to quench the fierydarts of the wicked one.And take the
helmet of salvation,and the sword of the Spirit ,which is the Word of
God,praying always with all prayer and supplication,in the spirit,for all
the saints.

This is the 5th time I have run across something specifically to do with the armor of God. I will share what I got in an email, yesterday.
Praying on the Armor
The word of God commands us to be strong in the Lord and in His mighty
power (Eph. 6:10-18). We must daily stand firm against the devil's
schemes by putting on our spiritual armor. It is as important to dress
spiritually each day as it is to dress physically. Therefore, declare
daily that you are obeying God's command to stand in all the armor
available to intercessory soldiers in the battle for our families.
Father, our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the
rulers, the authorities, the powers of this dark world and fallen
angels cast down from heaven by the command of the true and living
God. They are in subjection to Jesus Christ, the Son of God. We are in
Him and stand in His already-assured victory. Therefore, we put on the
full armor of God, so that when the fiery darts come, we may be able
to stand our ground.
We stand firm because we have taken up these weapons:
*We buckle the belt of truth around our waist – Truth is the Person of
our Lord Jesus. He is the way, the truth, and the life.
*We put on the breastplate of righteousness – The Person and sinless
sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ is our Righteousness.
*We put on our feet the sandals of preparation of the gospel of peace
– The person of the Lord Jesus Christ Himself is our peace.
*We take the shield of faith which extinguishes all the flaming arrows
of the evil one – the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ is the
Author and Finisher of our faith. He is all the faith we need.
*We take the helmet of salvation – My Lord Jesus Christ Himself alone
is my salvation. His mind guards our minds.
*We take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God – the Word
is the Person of Jesus who came in flesh and defeated the
works of the enemy. His word never returns void.
*We clothe ourselves in all of Jesus and pray in the Spirit on all
occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests.
"No weapon formed against us will prevail, and we will refute every
tongue that accuses us. This is the heritage of the servants of the
Lord, and this is their vindication from Me," declares the Lord (Isa.
54:17). The One who was born of God keeps us safe, and the evil one
cannot harm us (1 John 5:18). In Jesus' name, Amen.
