Ephesians 6:14 NASB "Stand firm therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,"The reality was that no one could believe what I said! As a young boy, I lied, I even had a bar of soap put in my mouth because of those lies but when I told the truth, no one would believe me! Today's verse shares more of the Armor of God that we need to put on, it speaks about standing firm with the Truth and putting on the breastplate of righteousness. I came to realize just how important the truth telling is and how having His Righteousness as my protection when one of the guys from our group called me out. He went on to say that I was known as a liar and couldn't be trusted! I thank God that I learned to speak the Truth no matter what and His Righteousness will protect me. Don't let falsehood be what people see in us but let them see that God's Truth is our standard for living and put on the armor to be safe from the lies of satan, for he will lie to us! peace, tom
