Put on All Your Armor: The Belt of Truth Wouldn’t it be embarrassing to realize that you’re out in public and are missing a piece of clothing? Woops . . . Wouldn’t it be dangerous to be a soldier in battle and realize that you’ve neglected to pack your weapons or helmet? God has not left you helpless in your struggle against Satan. He has provided you with full battle gear to wage your war successfully. But the greatest gear in the world isn’t any good if the soldiers don’t use it. The Bible says in Ephesians 6:11,14, “Put on the full armor of God. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist.” You know what belts do? They keep your pants from falling down and revealing your nakedness. They hold all your clothes and gear together. God has given you his Holy Word, the Bible, so that you will have an absolutely reliable standard of truth, so that you won’t ever have to stand before the world with just your own man-made religious opinions. It holds everything together. Hang on to your Bible! Its truth will crush all of Satan’s lies. Buckle it on!
