Bible costume help (pix included)

I am trying to be clever and recycle my kids halloween costumes into outfits for bible day at school next week. Originally I was going to try and make them into animals (as in like two tigers or bunnies from Noahs ark) but then I realized their halloween costumes might fit the bill. My daughter's could be taken a variety of ways. We can say Sarah from the bible since the Lord named her that which means princess. ... Also in the NIV bible version psalm 45 mentions a princess with gold in her gown (and this dress has gold in it!) I am stuck, though, on my son. I've thumbed thru all the bible dictionaries I can find and there's simply NOTHING knight in shining armor related I can find. I need a solid bible story or bible verse to back it up. These people are PICKY and I'd hate for him to be the only kid not participating

  • It's not a person but what about the 'full armor of God' Eph 6:10-17

  • Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armour of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armour of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled round your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

  • I like what But_Mommie said.

    Also, when I looked at that pic, the story of David came to mind when he put on the king's armor to fight Goliath. Maybe you could give him a makeshift slingshot to hold instead of the shield.

  • my first thought was also the full armor of God...especially since they sell that as a costume and it doesnt look anywhere as cool as your son's.

    also, your kiddos are super cute!
