Day 23 – The Breastplate
The Breastplate of righteousness keeps the enemies blows ineffective.
I love how many of these spiritual warfare activities are really just godly activities. Much spiritual war happens unintentionally.
Praise and worship is spiritual warfare just as much as casting out demons. In praise and worship I think about the Lord not the devil, yet I know of it’s effectiveness.
Righteousness matters and has a direct impact on our lives. With that truth in mind, we live lives worthy of His calling.
And whilst we try (Col 1:28-29) to live a righteous life, we need to continue to be humble. One of the most important takeaways from this course.
Remember God opposes the proud and gives grace/favour to the humble.
Humility is knowing your own righteousness is like filthy rags compared to God’s righteousness.
That’s why we fight by falling on our knees.
It’s why we fight by asking for forgiveness.
It’s why we fight by putting on the righteousness of Christ.
