The Bible says,
"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but
against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of
this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." - Ephesians 6:12
KJV
The Bible then says,
"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." - Ephesians 6:13 KJV
Our defense against the “fiery darts of the wicked” is “the
shield of faith.”
"Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye
shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked." - Ephesians
6:16 KJV
How do we get this “shield of faith”?
We get the shield of
faith to quench the fiery darts of the wicked by praying in the Holy Ghost.
The Bible says,
"But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most
holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost," - Jude 1:20 KJV
Two verses after “taking the shield of faith,” the Bible
also says,
"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…" - Ephesians 6:17-18 KJV
How do we pray in the Spirit / pray in the Holy Ghost?
We pray in the Spirit /pray in the Holy Ghost the same way
we received the Holy Ghost: we pray speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives the
utterance.
"And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and
began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance." -
Acts 2:4 KJV (Acts 10:45-46, Acts 19:6, 1Corinthians 14:18).
If you are feeling attacked by the fiery darts of the
wicked, take a moment out and pray in the Holy Ghost.
"Be careful [anxious] for nothing; but in every thing
by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known
unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep
your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:6-7 KJV
