When the Apostle Paul said in Ephesians 6:15, “And having your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace.” He had in mind the Roman soldier’s “killer shoes” with spikes and protective greaves. When you realize what those shoes looked like and how dangerous those sharpened spikes could be, you begin to understand why it is so amazing that Paul would use this illustration to describe “peace.” According to Paul, “peace” is an awesome weapon, both DEFENSIVE and OFFENSIVE.

Too many times, well-meaning Christians run out to engage in warfare with the enemy, without being grounded in their righteousness. The enemy will use every diabolical trick in the world to slander and accuse you to get you to back-down. He’ll try and convince you that there is no way that God could use you and that no one is going to listen to you. BUT! God has given you a BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNENSS! And when you walk through life wearing that breastplate, everything changes for the better.

When we as believers understand that God has freely imparted righteousness to us and that this God-given righteous now serves us as a gorgeous breastplate, it will affect our attitude quite positively and profoundly. You will discover your level of confidence rises dramatically because an attitude of righteousness imparts both confidence and tremendous authority.

As we learn about our right-standing, no word of condemnation, no false allegation, and no guilty thoughts will penetrate a believer’s heart or lodge in his mind when he is equipped with his breastplate of righteousness. It seems like a majority of the Body of Christ is walking in condemnation with their shoulders slumped over and their heads hanging low. They are victimized to the point that they can no longer pray with confidence, convinced that they will never be good enough to be used by God.

We need to give the Word of God a central place and dominant role, allowing it to be the “loinbelt” that holds the rest of our weaponry together. The Word MUST BE the governor, the law, the ruler, and “the final say-so” in our lives. When we as believers know that God has made us righteous…when we have his breastplate of righteousness fixed firmly in place, it doesn’t matter how many darts or arrows the enemy shoots against us because not one arrow or dart will penetrate.

If we remove our loinbelt–the Word of God–it will only be a matter of time until we begin to fall to pieces spiritually. Demonic assaults will break through that invisible barrier that used to protect us, and chaos will take over in our lives. If we want to walk through life clothed in our spiritual armor, you must begin by taking up the Word of God and PERMANENTLY affixing it to our lives.

Just like the loinbelt was the most important part of the Roman soldier’s weaponry, when we ignore the Word of God and cease to apply it to our lives on a daily basis (not just in crisis) we willfully choose to allow our entire spiritual life come apart at the seams. We absolutely CANNOT function as a believer without the Word of God having an active and central role in our lives. We may run on a little steam from the past for a while, but we won’t run very far.

The “loinbelt of truth,” is the written Word of God (logos). This is the only spiritual weapon that has taken on a physical, natural form and has passed tangibly from the spirit realm into our hands. It is in fact the MOST IMPORTANT piece of weaponry that we possess. The Roman soldier’s loinbelt held all the pieces of his armor together. He might be wearing all his great weaponry, but if his loinbelt was not in place, everything would fall apart. thus, it was said that the loinbelt was the most VITAL part of all the weaponry the Roman soldier wore.

The majority of our spiritual armor is invisible. For instance, you can’t physically see the breastplate of righteousness. You can’t physically see your shoes of peace, your shield of faith, your helmet of salvation, your sword of the Spirit or your lance of intercession. These are INVISIBLE WEAPONS. But you CAN see one weapon. In fact, this is the only one spiritual weapon that is visible to the sight–THE LOINBELT OF TRUTH.

We as believers are not left naked before the enemy. God has provided us with spiritual weaponry that has the ability to counterattack and defeat any scheme that the devil would try to use against us. God knows that in order for us to successfully fight the unseen powers that have been marshaled against us we must have His special supernatural power that He has provided for the fight. The weapons of our warfare are NOT CARNAL!
