Preparation of the Gospel of PEACE

Now that you can stand [hold your ground], having tightened the belt of truth around you and having put on the breastplate of integrity and of moral rectitude and right standing with God, we move on to the next item in our outfit for complete success in daily survival while we are in this world.

Preparation of the Gospel of PEACE , third outfit for DEFENCE 

 

Ephesians 6:14 AMPLIFIED. And having shod your feet in preparation [to face the enemy with the [a]firm-footed stability, the promptness, and the readiness [b]produced by the good news] of the Gospel of peace.

Shod (wear) on you the preparation of the Gospel of peace, the good news. Can you imagine walking every where without shoes? Going to work, your daily activities and doing everything outside as well as inside the comfort of your home without shoes? The thought of it is kind of worrying I am sure you agree. 

The weather will be the first to bite and other pain will be expected to set in as there is no protection for the feet (needed for movement), injury will be eminent and movement will be slow if not a total standstill. The Gospel of Peace, the good news is like our shoes, we should always have them on.

2 Timothy 2 15Study and be eager and do your utmost to present yourself to God approved (tested by trial), a workman who has no cause to be ashamed, correctly analyzing and accurately dividing [rightly handling and skilfully teaching] the Word of Truth. 16But avoid all empty (vain, useless, idle) talk, for it will lead people into more and more ungodliness.

The Gospel of peace is our only hope to prevent stand still in our lives, it’s the only way to prevent slow down in our lives and is the only AUTHORITY you have to WALK through the valley of mistakes, wrong decisions, sadness, sorrow or even death. You need to be very well acquainted with the Gospel of truth, the good news because it carries love and love conquers all things. 

Your good understanding and awareness of this Gospel of truth ensures you will not fall to any untrue doctrine that the world has to offer regardless of who ever directs you to the area in life you may be walking through. See Psalm 119:105 and Matthew 4 (Jesus used the written Word in spiritual battle). 

The practical way to ensure you always wear your shoes (Gospel of peace / Good News) is by continuous study of the Word of God as advised in 2 Timothy 2:15, constant confession and use of the Word daily as well as sharing the Word with others. Remember, you can’t show others what you don’t have good command of!

With your shoe always on, the world will see you can walk through anything and you can live by EXAMPLE.
