The Belt of Truth


The Belt Of Truth

The belt of truth prepares us for action. We as Christians should always be ready to fight against the snares and traps set by the enemy. The only way to truly be prepared is to know the word of God and to practice the word of God. I can’t tell you how many Christians I know that know the word of God, they can quote scriptures from sun up until sun down but they are some of the worse people that I have every met. Knowing means nothing without practice. If I was going to the doctor to get a surgery and he says he knows he can perform the task and I ask him where he is practicing and he tells me no where…I would politely get up from the room and leave. You can’t just know….you must practice. 1 Peter 2:2 tells us to live such good lives, that through they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God. People will always have something to say about you, so you should probably get used to it (It’ll make life a lot easier) but what we must do is walk with the belt of truth not being moved by gossip, not being moved by back biting but walking with truth strapped around our waist. When the soldiers put on the belt of truth they were preparing themselves for the task at hand while protecting vitally important parts of the body. Our challenge is to put on the belt of truth and never take it off. The belt of truth is there to set us in motion and to protect us from evil.

Let’s pray, Father God in the name of Jesus, today we put on the belt of truth knowing that the enemy is so slick and evil that he will do everything he can to stop us from being prepared for our next level. Lord we desire to walk with you with power and integrity so our prayer today is that you not only allow us to put on the belt of truth but you allow us to use the belt of truth that we may impact our families, our friends, our enemies and our world. In Jesus name we pray…Amen!

Have a great day…. and don’t forget to put on your belt of truth!
