His Word - Our Armor attempts to create an interest in Scripture memorization by categorizing Bible verses in a simplified way. By spending time in and methodologically progressing through each category, persons who desire to prepare for deeper spiritual participation in God's army will find fulfillment and a lessening of fear in defending their faith when they "hide His Word in their hearts." His Word - Our Armor recognizes the need for preparedness as outlined in Ephesians 6 by putting on the whole armor of God beginning with the first essential characteristic – "Having girded your waist with truth." It is hoped that this book of selected Bible verses will be used with an eagerness to gain the self-assurance so necessary to becoming a vibrant, effective, and authoritative witness for Christ.

B.T. PRINCE, JR., a retired businessman, is an elder and outreach volunteer at Carmel Baptist Church, Matthews, North Carolina. Many years ago he was encouraged by Dr. Donald G. Bouldin, then senior minister of Carmel Baptist, to memorize Scripture verses. This additional armor of God has proved very beneficial in his current capacity as a lay minister and lay evangelist. God has laid on his heart a challenge to encourage other Christians to make Scripture memorization an important part of their daily lives. As Jesus spoke with authority, why should we not take advantage of the authority given to us by hiding His Word in our hearts?
