Armor of God Points to Jesus

While walking down the road with the Lord this morning, the Holy Spirit began to show me how the armor of God that I wrote of in my last post, pointed to Jesus. The passage starting in Ephesians 6:10 speaks of six different parts of spiritual protection. The first, in 6:14, is the belt of truth. Jesus tells us in John 14:6 that He is the way, the truth, and the life. The next is the breastplate of righteousness. 1 Corinthians 1:30 says that Jesus has become our righteousness. Third are the feet shod with the gospel of peace. Mark 1:1 refers to the beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, and He is our peace. (John 14:27) Fourth is the shield of faith. Our faith is in Jesus. (Romans 3:22, Galatians 2:16) Fifth we have the helmet of salvation that is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. (2 Timothy 2:10) Finally we have the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God. John chapter 1:1 says that Jesus is the Word. (cf. Verses 14,18) All of this points to Jesus, as Hebrews 12:2 tells us to do, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith. May we put our armor on daily.
Also would appreciate prayer for the regional gathering on September 10th as believers from the New England region gather to glorify God through Jesus Christ.
