I will first start this series with the Helmet of Salvation. When you ask God to live in your heart, you automatically receive this gift. The Helmet protects any attacks and blows that are directed toward your head.
You don't need much convincing to know how important it is to keep your head protected. You can survive a broken arm or a leg, but a broken head can lead to devastating results. The Helmet is a very important piece of armor for you to carry at all times.
1 Thessalonians 5:8 tells us that the helmet is the " Hope of Salvation".
Interesting, isn't it? Last Sunday, my pastor gave us a very real analogy. He said that a man can survive 40 days without food, 3 days without water, 8 minutes without air, but not even a second without Hope.
That passage right there really puts a perspective on our life. Here's the question, though. What do we put our hope in?
Titus 1:2-3 says, " A faith and knowledge resting on the hope of eternal life, which God, who does not lie, promised before the beginning of time, "
The Bible says that we put our hope in eternal life. Knowing that we have eternal life in God gives us the strength and courage to move forward.
In order to put on this helmet and to strengthen it up, we must put our hope in the Lord. The more hope we put in the Lord, the stronger and more durable our helmet becomes. Therefore, give hope in the Lord and His promises for us in our lives.
Have a blessed week, and always wear your Helmet of Salvation. Amen.
