Armor of God: Readiness from the Gospel of Peace

     and with your feet fitted with the readiness
     that comes from the gospel of peace.
       ~ Ephesians 6:15

Read and study your Bible daily. Meditate on God’s Word day and night*. Prepare!
Why on the feet? The feet take the body wherever it goes. God’s Word will guide you to the spiritual place in which He wants you to be. The burden of spiritual growth is on God* read His Word, and let Him bring you to Himself.
You’re a messenger. You need to know the message that you will impart, and you need to be able to get to wherever you will deliver the message. So prepare, and then go!
And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!" ~ Romans 10:15* (Isaiah 52:7)*
Do you daily spend time studying the Bible? Are you prepared to share the reason for the hope in your life?*

Miracles

          When evening came, his disciples went down to the
     lake, where they got into a boat and set off across
     the lake for Capernaum. By now it was dark, and
     Jesus had not yet joined them. A strong wind was
     blowing and the waters grew rough. When they had
     rowed three or three and a half miles, they saw
     Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the water;
     and they were terrified. But he said to them, “It is I;
     don’t be afraid.” Then they were willing to take him
     into the boat, and immediately the boat reached the
     shore where they were heading.
     ~ John 6:16-21

When God is at work, when He does something amazing, when He does a miracle, are you afraid? Jesus' disciples were afraid when they saw Him walking across the water. But you don't have to be afraid. Stand in awe of God, and join Him! Be aware and ready to act. Watch for signs of God at work and then respond.
