Battle Gear, Breastplate of Righteousness

Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place. Eph.6:14NIV

I think a strong case of false humility is my biggest problem with the Breastplate of Righteousness.

My first thoughts are, oh I'm not a righteous person, you don't know my past.. Completely forgetting there is only one who is righteous.

God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that IN HIM we might become the righteousness of God. 2Cor.5:21.NIV

The Breastplate is designed to protect the vital organs from injury during a battle.

Being IN JESUS, is the only way we can strap on the Breastplate of Righteousness. HE is the Righteousness that protects our vital organs during battle.

To hold the Breastplate in place we use the belt of truth.

Knowing the Word of God will allow us to understand who our Righteousness is, and that truth will firmly hold Jesus next to our hearts for protection against the enemies attack.

When the enemy goes after our mind we have the Helmet of Salvation covering our heads, when he goes after our body, we have the Breastplate of Righteousness, Jesus, to protect us.

Two more pieces of the Battle Gear God designed for us to wear daily to protect us from anything the enemy has to use against us.

When we feel alone we need to remember He has designed the perfect Armor. He knew what we would need and designed our Armor to fit us individually for maximum protection.

Our God is not only with us in battle, HE IS OUR PROTECTION.

If God is our protection what can man or any evil force do to us??

As long as we "Suit Up" daily in Him, we have everything we need to assure victory.

In case you are wondering, I took the photo at the Holy Land Experience in Orlando.
