Good Morning!
 
What will you be wearing today?        (text message:  Ephesians 6: 11-18)
 
This has been an "on-going and continued" series that I am sharing about, so I hope you will refer back to the previous messages as we go along.  Today,  let's talk about the "belt" that is part of the "armor of God" . . . it is called the "belt of Truth".  In fact, verse 14 tells us to "tighten" our belt of Truth so that we can stand our ground.  Let's think about this ~~~ what ground?  The ground that we have taken back from the enemy . . . the progress that we have made by wearing the "armor of God" and fighting the "good fight of Faith"!  What enabled us to gain that ground?  The TRUTH of God's Word that we stood on to get the victory at that time . . . watch this ~~~ learning the Truth of God's Word is a "process" . . . we don't get all of it at one time!  Are you with me?  It isn't hard to understand that we make progress and gain ground and get a victory by taking one step at a time!  Right?  Stay with me on this ~~~~ each VICTORY that God gives us takes the "weight" of a burden off of us!  But, then there will always be another battle to win.  Let me put it this way ~~~ when a person loses "weight" in the natural (or in their physical body), they usually need to "tighten" up their belts another "notch"!  Well, when we lose the "weight" of one burden that has been put on us, then we have to move our knowledge of the TRUTH up  another "notch"!  How do we do that?  By spending time in the Word of God, and finding out what the TRUTH is concerning the battle! 
 
TRUTH protects us from "deception" and from the "lies of the enemy"!  But we have to KNOW the truth in order to have that protection!  Jesus said that if we would continue in His WORD, then we would KNOW the "truth" and that truth would make us free!  It is the "truth" that you KNOW about that wins the battles for you, and removes "burdens" and destroys "yokes"!  So, when you read the Word of God . . . ask the Holy Spirit to give you "revelation knowledge" concerning the TRUTH of His Word, so that you can "tighten" your belt and gain more ground to STAND ON!  Don't go around with a "loose belt" on!
 
Have a Blessed Weekend!     (Lose some "burden weight" today!)       In His Love, Luanne
