Thy words of wisdom calleth me to a high place of whole fellowship. (Gracie's Book KJV Ha!)<BR/><BR/>So guess what? Gotta add to your armour study because yours helped mine. So cool. I believe what you are teaching here is soooo vital to our walk. So vital!!! Yea. Speak it Kimberly Hope! Yea!!!!!!!!! I'm gettin' so much out of the image of Orlando using the shield. So much. Faith (shield) is part of our substance. We are identified by how or if we use it. Orlando was a great combat soldier. He used all his armour. I didn't see that before, now I do.... wow!<BR/><BR/>My study last week got into Ephesians 6 too. It's titled, "Substance of God, Do I Have It?" So, I get really motivated to the point of shoutin' Glory Hallelujah when anyone talks about the armour. The Word began to unfold to me that when we begin to really build up our armour we get:<BR/><BR/>Belt of Truth - Integrity<BR/>Breat Plate of Righteousness - Honesty<BR/>Feet fitted with readiness of gospel of peace - Jesus' great commission<BR/>Sheild of Faith - Position to Recieve/Courage, Covenant<BR/>Helement of Salvation - Solid Foundation<BR/>Pray in the Spirit - Provision from God to use the Armour correctly. ( I believe we forget this is part of our armour.)<BR/><BR/>Then it hit me like a kangaroo punch! As we learn to use the armour we build true Biblical substance. Our essence changes. I looked up the word substance in the Greek from Hebrews 11:1 - "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen." It was great! Hypostasis - a setting under, essences, support, assurance, confidence, person, root is Hupo means agency of means. Wow. I had to look at the "person" of course as Jesus! I had to look at the "agency of means" as the Word, of course!!!!! Okay, so once we begin to armour up we are building substance/God kind of integrity in ourselves so others will see it. Our armour not only protects us it contains the pure essence of the Holy one that ministers to a lost a dieing world. True armour puts us in a no-doubt state. Others see it, want it! We are passionate soldiers in a foreign land possessing it for the KING! Oh Lord send provision today. I shall receive Your fodder until I am a cultivated spirit able to access the kingdom at a moments notice! Write upon my heart and soul your laws. Heart/soul my eternal being. So be it now! <BR/><BR/>Love, Megan GraceHIStory Buffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01822033043256620826noreply@blogger.com
