“Moroni Had Prepared His People with Breastplates and with Armshields”

"As the Nephite armies prepared, we prepare for that spiritual battle by putting on 'the whole armour of God,' which will enable us to 'stand against the wiles of the devil.' (Eph. 6:11.) Satan has a difficult time conquering an individual protected by this armor. Like the opposition leaders, Satan will usually focus his attack on our weakest parts, hoping for a major attack on our souls after our defenses crumble." (Kathleen S. McConkie, Ensign, Jan. 1992, "Defending Against Evil")
