All the children of God are Warriors of light and that is why he has prepared for us The indestructible Armor that will make us winners of battles. The devil always wants to provoke us and stray our steps for bad things and destroy the world that God created for us, but our father knowing that the enemy would seek to persuade us prepared an ARMOR.

"Stand firm, girded with the belt of truth, protected by the breastplate of righteousness, and clothed with the disposition to proclaim the gospel of peace." In addition to all this, the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the fiery arrows of the evil one, takes the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. "(NIV)
God had already thought about shielding us from all evil and danger and that is why he made us a complete armor, he left us his best gifts: HIS LOVE AND HIS WORD (THE BIBLE).
What do we understand when he says: "girded with the belt of truth"?
Let's analyze this phrase, our father refers to the truth and the easiest example to understand is a belt when we put it on the waist to hold it, without a doubt, the importance of the belt as part of the armor is seen by the fact that meticulous preparation for the battle it is called "adjustment". Then, it means that you are prepared for the battle and we are prepared for the fight.

John 17:17 tells us:
"The Word of God is true." In other words, they are not ready for battle, with their belts on, until we have "tightened" our understanding with the truth, the Word of God.
Another part of the text says: "protected with the breastplate of justice"
Another of the clothes that had the armor of God for us his children is: the breastplate of justice. What does this mean? Taken to the spiritual part, we must seek God, his love, his goodness, we must not take justice by our hands and do what we create just when we create it at our convenience. We must shield our heart from the bad root: resentment, hatred, envy.

Another part of the text says: "shoes with the disposition to proclaim the gospel of peace"
Continuing with the garments for the WARRIORS OF THE LIGHT OF GOD, we reach the shoes, that help us to walk and our feet do not stumble. In the case of the armor of God, speaking in the spiritual, the shoes (sandals, tennis shoes, sports shoes, etc.) that must use in their entirety the disposition to proclaim the gospel, the word of God, his works, in order to Be prepared to walk, promote and carry the message. But it is not about wearing expensive shoes, spiritually it means that our feet are prepared to take steps towards the path of God.

The text also speaks: "besides all this, the shield of faith"
What a very important word for us, the children of God, the FAITH, that moves mountains, heaven and earth! That faith that our father always takes into account in our lives. That is part of the armor of the WARRIORS OF THE LIGHT OF GOD. Taking the shield of faith means simply believing in what God has said. Brother, friend that reads to me, it is possible that you know the whole word and still do not believe it. God will give you the same protection that the shield gives a warrior.

And finally in the analysis is "and the sword of the Spirit that is the Word of God"
What does that mean? the sword that comes from God, who is Spirit. This sword is the Word of God. But we have to be careful how we use that sword (THE WORD) can be very sharp and hurt a noble and sincere heart
Many may not believe it but the devil is loose and wants to take us, but we will be prepared with our armor made by our father. He will disappear forever when he is sent to the lake of fire (Revelation 20:10).
God will always lead us in triumph, as long as you set your eyes on Him and His Word will teach you which is the path we must travel. Brothers in Christ blessings will fall on you.
