Spiritual Armor
Tighten Up Your Belt
Ephesians 6:14-18

As Paul analyzed the soldier that stood before him, he observed his body armor.

With all of this glorious shining metal, notice the Holy Spirit points Paul to what seems to be the most unimportant part of the armor, the belt.

Think about this. The belt of truth is the only part of our spiritual armor that can be held in our hand.

Righteousness
If your body armor is full of holes, the only way you can patch them is by putting on the belt of truth and making the written word a top priority.

Peace
The only way you can quit stumbling in your shoes of peace is by putting on your belt of truth and let the word fill your life.

Faith
If Satan has slapped your shield of faith from your hand, the only way to retrieve it is by putting on your belt of truth and allowing the Holy Spirit to renew your faith by the word of God.

Salvation
If Satan has crushed your helmet of salvation, the only way to restore it is by putting on the belt of truth and allowing the Word of God to give you the assurance of your salvation.

Spirit
If Satan has broken your sword of the Spirit, the only way to repair it is to put on the belt of truth and hang it from your side.
