We explore St. Patrick's Breastplate, an ancient Irish prayer used for spiritual protection in battle. This powerful "lorica" has deep connections to Ephesians 6 and the spiritual armor Christians need for daily battles.
• St. Patrick's Breastplate (or Deer's Cry) was used by men going into physical and spiritual battle
• The prayer focuses on Christ's presence in every direction: before, behind, above, beneath
• According to tradition, this prayer made St. Patrick invisible to assassins who only saw deer
• The prayer serves as an Irish poetic version of the Armor of God in Ephesians 6
• This week's episodes will examine individual lines of this protection prayer
• The Daily Blade podcast takes its name from Ephesians 6:17, "the sword of the Spirit"
If you want to help equip other men for the fight, share this podcast around and leave us a five-star rating and review.
