Episode 27: Recognizing Joy Blockers: Wearing the Breastplate of Righteousness

In Part 2 of our Guard Your Heart & Grow in Joy series, we explore Ephesians 6:14 and the powerful protection of the Breastplate of Righteousness. Our joy is often stolen by subtle “joy blockers” comparison, unforgiveness, fear, and negative self-talk. These aren’t just bad habits; they’re spiritual attacks meant to pull our hearts away from God’s truth.

In this episode, we’ll talk about:

• ​ How to identify and name the joy blockers in your life
• ​ What the Breastplate of Righteousness is and why it’s essential to guard your heart
• ​ Practical ways to “put it on” daily through choices, thoughts, and actions
• ​ How righteousness in Christ restores joy and peace, no matter your circumstances

If you’ve been feeling weighed down, distracted, or distant from God, this conversation will equip you to recognize what’s stealing your joy and protect your heart with the unshakable truth of His Word.
