The Armor of God. Time to Suit Up!

The armor of God is our protection against our enemy. Each piece of armor has a distinct purpose and means of defense against temptation and evil. The first piece of armor is the belt of truth. Building our lives on truth solves many self inflicted problems, and saves us from having to maintain the lies we’ve told in the past. Jesus is the way the truth and the life (John 14:6). Building our foundation on Him is a solid choice for victory. The breastplate of righteousness shows the enemy we are in good standing with God, which shield us from every arrow of persecution our enemies throw at us. The next piece of armor is having our feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. Going into all the world and preaching and teaching the good news (social media). The shield of faith is a vital piece for protection. It will extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. The helmet of salvation is to protect us from agitating spirits and moral conflicts, the gospel is the unshakable foundation of our lives once we believe. The last piece of armor is, the sword of the spirit which is the word of God. The sword of the spirit is for offensive maneuvers, such as using the name of Jesus and the power of God’s word on your lips to command your spiritual enemies to stand down. They will respond to the faith filled word of God from the mouth of a believer. Put on the full armour of God. Once it’s in place, there will be no disgrace.
