Shield of Faith Angelic Figurine
The “Shield of Faith” is a metaphorical concept taken from Christianity and symbolizes the trust and belief in God’s promises as a protective barrier against life’s difficulties and spiritual doubts. It’s part of the ‘Armor of God’, a set of symbolic virtues described in the book of Ephesians in the Bible. Essentially, the “Shield of Faith” represents the believer’s unwavering faith in God. This faith serves as a shield to protect them against negative forces or challenges much like a physical shield protects a warrior during combat.
Presenting the “Shield of Faith” angelic figurine, a standout piece in the Armor of the Lord series. This African American male angel measures 9.5 inches (Height) x 3.5 inches (Length) x 3 inches (Depth) with a weight of 17.6 oz. The figure is carefully crafted from resin and meticulously hand-painted.
He is portrayed holding a shield in his left hand inscribed with the words “Shield of Faith”, representing an unwavering belief in God’s promises. His right hand is extended outward in a welcoming gesture, signifying the accessibility and openness of faith. The angel stands on a circular base designed to have a rustic and stone-like appearance featuring a portion of Ephesians 6:13.
This figurine serves as a reminder of the protective and inviting nature of faith, making it an ideal gift for those who appreciate religious artistry or are followers of the Christian faith.

It is through fervent prayer that we activate and sustain the Armor of God in our lives.
