Belt of Truth

 Greetings,

The first installment of our Armor of God series is the Belt of Truth, Truth had to come first.  The Belt of truth if a key piece of our armor.    

As followers of YHVH & Yeshua, we should be dedicated to the truth, the whole truth & nothing but the truth

The belt of truth provides spiritual protection, freedom and preparedness for spiritual battles against deception.  The enemy has been working overtime 

When we are asked to give an answer, we must always be prepared (1 Peter 3:15).  We need to have a clear understanding of our faith so that we can quote scripture when we are taken to task when we are told "you don't have to do that anymore or why do you do that?

Yeshua says in John 14:6-I am the way, the truth and the life.  Yeshua is the absolute truth because he is the living and true God. 

Yeshua is the exclusive path to the father, providing a way for people to connect to God.  No one comes to the father except thru Yeshua.  (John 14:6)

The truth will set us free.  (John 8:32)

The foundation of thy word is truth and every one of they righteous judgements endures forever.  (Ps. 119:160)

Prov. 12:19-The lips of truth are forthright but the tongue of a lying witness is wicked. 

Eph. 4:25-You must put away from you lying and speak the truth, every man with his neighbor, for we are members of of another. 

John 17:17-O Father, sanctify them in thy truth, because they word is truth. 

1 John 2:4-He who says I know him and doesn't keep his commandment is a liar and the truth isn't in him.

By holding to the truth, we are fearing God and keeping his commandments.  (Ps. 111:10)  There was only one set of commandments at the time of the old testament & the new testament-the Torah.  The new testament wasn't written until much later. 

So, put on the belt of truth and make sure it's fastened.  Yeshua is coming and we need to be ready.

Until next time,
