D name of d Lord is an extremely powerful weapon dat is open 2 all soldiers of d Cross.Hw often do u use it? D whole armour we re advised 2 put on in Ephesians 6:13-17 can b summarised as Jesus.D belt of truth is Jesus bcus John 14:6 says Jesus is d Truth.D breastplate of righteousness has its link in d Sun of righteousness(Malachi 4:2; 1corinthians 1:30).D boots we re to wear re d boots of peace nd Jesus is d Prince of peace(Isaiah 9:6).Our shield of faith links up wit Jesus d Author nd Finisher of our faith(Hebrews 12:2). Our helmet is salvation nd Jesus is d Saviour (Matthew 1:21).Our sword is d word God nd d Lord Jesus is d word made flesh(John 1:14).So u see dat all parts of armour re linked wit Jesus.No wonder we re commanded 2 put on Jesus in Romans 13:14: "But put ye on d Lord Jesus Christ,nd make not provision 4 d flesh,2 fulfil d lusts thereof". To be able 2 put on Jesus completely,u must first UnCloth.Colossians 3:8says,"But nw ye also put off all these;anger,wrath,malice,blasphemy,filthy communication out of ur mouth". If u re a mechanic wearin ur work clothes dat re dirty nd greasy,nd u re asked 2 come nd attend 2 an important function wit lots of dignitaries,wat wil u do? Wil u put ur new clothes on d old dirty ones? If u do dat, I believe everybody wil think u re nuts.But do u know dis is exactly wat some believers re doing? Dey want 2 put on Jesus bt dey re not ready 2 let go of deir dirty habits.Dat is y dey re not well kitted.U cannot be savouring anger,malice nd bitterness nd expect 2 be fully dressed wit Jesus;it is impossible! As long as dere is lack of forgiveness in ur heart,u cannot put on d whole armour.If ur tongue is lose or u re into gossip nd backbiting,u can never fully be clad wit all of God's armour.If u truly want 2 wear Jesus,look @ d old,dirty clothes of sin u re still wearin - dat evil habit u re still harbouring,put dem off. Resolve never 2 live in such sins anymore.Study God's Word nd begin 2 apply it. Give your life to Jesus Christ, He can do much more with it than you can do. 2 Likes |
