Ephesians 6:8-10
New Catholic Bible
8 knowing that whatever good we may do, whether as slaves or as free men, we will be repaid by the Lord.
9 And masters, treat your slaves fairly. Stop threatening them. Remember that both of you have the same Master in heaven, and he shows no favoritism.
The Christian Warfare[a]
10 Put On the Armor of God. Finally, find your strength in the Lord and in his mighty power.

- Ephesians 6:10 Christ’s triumph over evil and the devil must be appropriated by individual Christians in the human sphere through a kind of spiritual warfare against the malevolent spirits in the heavens. For this, Christians need to be clothed with the armor of God (see Isa 11:5; 59:17; see also Wis 5:17-20)—a spiritual armor. They must strive to counter the forces of evil by relying on the Gospel and prayer.
