I’m a member of the Thomas Nelson Bibles blogger program. With my membership, I occasionally review some of their new products. In exchange for my review, I get a free copy of the Bible I am reviewing. I am privileged to give you my review of the Armor of God Bible, New King James Version.
Why The Armor of God Bible?
Today’s children face an overwhelming array of difficulties, from academic pressures to social media anxieties, which can undermine their faith if their foundation in God’s word is weak. The “Armor of God” offers a spiritual safeguard, a gift from God that helps them resist negative influences and temptations.
Like a soldier’s armor, this spiritual protection enhances courage, and is a constant reminder of God’s steadfast presence and support during life’s conflicts. The armor image brings a sense of comfort and strength. This Bible integrates the armor concept throughout its pages, showing children how to become strong and faithful soldiers in Christ’s Kingdom to battle the arrows of the enemy.
Details of this Bible
The Armor of God Bible will help your child stand firm in their faith with engaging, armor-themed devotionals, helpful notes, key highlights, and creative ideas for praying and memorizing scripture, all presented in an accessible and kid-friendly format. The NKJV Armor of God Bible provides kid-friendly features that help them understand and grow in their faith using the spiritual armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18): truth, righteousness, the Gospel of peace, faith, salvation, and the Word of God.
This children’s Bible (ages 6-10) makes biblical teachings relatable, guiding kids to apply them daily while learning to resist evil. For parents with young children, I wholeheartedly recommend this Bible. The age-appropriate stories will make it a cherished family heirloom. And it will prepare them for the tumultuous teen years, equipping them with coping mechanisms for high school academic and social challenges.

Armor of God
“13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; 18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints.” Ephesian 6:13-18 (NJKV).
Prayer
Lord Jesus, I will follow your command to put on the full armor of God, for I know my battle is not against mere mortals, but against the unseen powers of darkness, the rulers, authorities, and spiritual forces of evil. Your mighty power has enabled me to face whatever evil throws at me today; I thank you for this strength. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for arming me with the strength and courage I need to overcome every challenge that this day may bring. In Jesus’ Name I pray. Amen.
