8-Day Armor Of God Boot Campనమూనా

Simply put, a helmet covers the head, which is in itself, a helmet for the brain—the physical matter that houses our mind. When the Bible talks about the helmet of salvation, it’s talking about taking thoughts captive, controlling what penetrates our mind and informs our brain. It’s called the helmet of salvation. 

Since Paul is already writing to Christians, when he says the “helmet of salvation,” he’s not talking about going to heaven. He’s talking about decision-making on earth. God wants you to allow Him to control your thinking. More accurately put, He wants us to link into His thinking for the purpose of deliverance. 

The word “salvation” means to be delivered. We’re delivered in eternity from eternal judgment. But God also wants us to be delivered from satanic attack and defeat. For that to happen, you have to have your mind right. That’s why the Bible calls it in Romans 12:2 the “renewing of the mind."

Second Corinthians 10:5 says that 

“We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ.”

It also says in 1 Corinthians 2 that we are to think spiritual thoughts, based on spiritual words. Therefore, go to God’s Word, learn what He says, make those your thoughts, and then you just put a helmet on. In football, they wear a helmet because they are getting hit. Satan is trying to hit us, as well. But God doesn’t want us to have spiritual concussions or brain damage. He wants us to be able to think clearly based on the truth of God.
