God equips us with the armor that we need to walk in His power. Just as the loin belt on a Roman soldier was the key piece of their armor, God’s Word is our greatest defense in this world. We NEED to apply His Word daily. If we don’t read the Word of God daily and apply it to our life but instead choose to ignore it, we have made the decision to give the enemy a foothold.
When we don’t meditate on God’s Word, we will start to lose our sense of righteousness, sense of peace, the joy of our salvation, and then our ability to believe in faith in Him. We will not be able to use all the other armor that God has given us. The enemy will recognize that we don’t have the protective barrier of God’s Word in our life and will attack. This clearly isn’t God’s plan for our lives. That’s why He gave us our spiritual armor, but we have to do our part in using this weaponry.
God intends for every one of us to win the battle, because we can! If we have God in our lives, we are more than conquerors and can do anything in Christ Jesus! It’s never too late to pick up His Word, start reading, and be victorious!
