10Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord,
and in the power of His might. 11Put on the whole
armor of God, that you may be able to stand
against the wiles of the devil.

12For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood,
but against principalities, against powers,
against the rulers of the darkness of this age,
against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the
heavenly places.

13Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that
you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and
having done all, to stand. 14Stand therefore,
having girded your waist with truth, having put
on the breastplate of righteousness, 15and having
shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel
of peace 16above all, taking the shield of faith
with which you will be able to quench all the
fiery darts of the wicked one.

The Belt of Truth Gods Word
  • The armor starts with the belt.
  • Roman soldiers wore belts to secure their
    clothing and hold weapons.
  • Usually made from leather or tightly woven
    fabric, around the loin area. The tunic was
    fastened to this girdle as was all the other
    pieces of their armor.
  • This girdle held everything in place as well as
    holding the sword.

  • A Christians survival in the world requires a
    firm grounding in the absolute truth of the
    bible.
  • The truth sets us free from the devils lies and
    deception.
  • The enemy downplays the consequences of sin and
    promotes its pleasures.
  • Rooted in the truth we are equipped to recognize
    lies, resist the devil, and do Gods will.
