11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.
12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,
15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.
16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish 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 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. -Ephesians 6

I’m going to add something that may seem a little odd to God’s armor. But, it is a factor - for me - in how to maintain the full peace of standing.
Matt 11:28-30, (red letters)
28) Come unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29) take my yoke upon you, and learn of me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
30) For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.
And this is meaningful to me because I equate His yoke with being in full armor and standing. We are not standing all by our lonesome. We are not even just standing with our brothers and sisters. We are standing fully yoked up with our Savior.
It gives me good rest and I awaken to continue the battle. Now I shared 4 cents.
