We are in a spiritual battle every single day, and as God's children and soldiers for Him, He has issued us protective armor. One of those pieces is the Breastplate of Righteousness. Just as the physical heart is the source of life for the physical body, the spiritual heart is our spiritual source of life. It needs to be protected! Living in God's righteousness is one of the surest ways to protect against the unending schemes and attacks of the enemy.
