Armor of God: Belt of Truth

     Stand firm then, with the belt of truth
     buckled around your waist
      ~ Ephesians 6:14

    Jesus is the Way, the Truth, the Life (John 14:6). I often hear “this is right” or “this I know” or “this is proven”. That’s all well and good, but it’s not always true.
    Jesus is the Truth.
    In any situation, what Jesus speaks is the Truth. No matter how a situation appears, what Jesus speaks into the situation is the Truth. When a man was blind, Jesus spoke the Truth that he could see. When a man was crippled, Jesus spoke the Truth in his life that made him well. When you sin then confess*, Jesus speaks the truth that you are already forgiven and saved.
    Buckle this belt of Truth firmly around your waist to remind you that God’s Truth is what you need to believe amidst all the doubt and disbelief and false knowledge. You can trust in God; you can trust God.
    Is there an area of your life that needs to hear God’s Truth? Do you accept His Truth, or is the comfort of the normal and the “proven” more appealing?
