Nice pick for a heading! As much as it may
sound like the common topic of "dress code" in community;
let us think about the Spiritual dress code.
How many people walk out of their homes not
well dressed on a cold winter's morning? Sounds silly, but
isn't it what we often do in our spiritual walk? Ephesian
6:11 tells us to put on the full armor of God so that we can
stand against the devil's scheme.
Are you thinking...When, where, what do I
put on? As for the when and where; in John 10:1 we learn that
the thief only comes to steal, kill and destroy. Therefore,we
never know where and when the enemy is going to attack us.
So, we always have to be ready for his attack and
there is no other way than to be dressed for battle.
Through Ephesians 6: 14-18 we know what to
put on. The belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness,
feet fitted with the readinees from the gospel of peace, the
shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of
the spirit. Then we are further instructed to always
pray in the spirit, and to always be alert...
So, let us explore this 'dress code'...
Join me next month as we explore 'the belt of truth'.
Blessings,
Joelle.
