The nations are getting dressed in the armor of God. Watch for it, as the first call of the nations is to stand firm. As you watch nations take a stand you know you are seeing the dressing of the nations in the armor of God. It is has already begun, nations are standing up against the invisible enemy. Ephesians 6 says, our battle is against an invisible enemy, not flesh and blood you can see, but rulers, powers, principalities you cannot see but you know are ruling. The nations have taken the first step to putting on the armor of God, they are standing firm!
We may not have noticed the sequence with which the armor is placed on us as the nations, but it is the order God is using. Listen to what Paul says, “Stand your ground, putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God’s righteousness. For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared. In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil. Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God” (Ephesians 6:14-17). First stand firm, that is what the nations are doing. Second, put on the belt of truth. This is what we are seeing begin to happen, for truth is what keeps the nations standing. But truth is about to explode on the scene.
Truth, which is the next piece of armor the nations are receiving is going to set captives free, unlock the programming, take out the giant of religion, and it is going to bring a revelation of Jesus Christ and the kingdom of God we have not heard. Truth is the belt we will wear and it is what God is giving us next to be dressed in. Pray for yourself that you will be a lover of truth because much of what you think you know as truth is about to be challenged and religion will try and rise up and resist the truth, but the revelation of Jesus Christ is going to tear down every stronghold of religion! Truth is the next piece of armor we are about to receive.
