Truth is not optional in spiritual warfare—it is foundational. In this episode of the Seek His Face Podcast, we continue our Armor of God series by examining the Belt of Truth, the piece that holds everything else in place. Without truth, every other part of the armor becomes unstable.

Join Cody Bentley as we confront a crucial question: What happens when lies go unchallenged in the life of a believer? Through Scripture and practical application, this episode unpacks how truth is not merely information to believe, but a Person to know—Jesus Christ, the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6).

In this episode, we explore:

Why truth must be received before righteousness can be worn

How the gospel establishes identity and protects the heart from accusation and shame

The subtle, often unnoticed lies that erode peace, confidence, and spiritual authority

What it looks like to actively fasten the Belt of Truth in daily thoughts, decisions, and conversations

How truth anchors faith, strengthens spiritual discernment, and empowers victory in battle

Truth exposes deception, stabilizes the soul, and aligns the believer with heaven’s perspective. When truth is embraced, freedom follows. If you desire a faith that stands firm, resists compromise, and walks boldly in God’s promises, this episode will call you to examine what you’re fastening your life to—and equip you to stand your ground.

In this episode of The Seek His Face Podcast, Cody Bentley continues the Armor of God series with a deep and sobering look at The Breastplate of Righteousness—what it is, why it matters, and how it guards the heart against the enemy’s most dangerous attacks.

Moving from the mind to the heart, this teaching explores how righteousness protects our identity, confidence, and standing before God. Drawing from Ephesians 6, Isaiah 59, and the full arc of Scripture, we see that righteousness is not something we manufacture through effort, but something first worn by God Himself and fully fulfilled in Jesus Christ.

This episode unpacks:

Why the heart is the primary battlefield of spiritual warfare

How Jesus fulfilled righteousness and bore its full weight at the cross

The difference between imputed righteousness (what is given) and imparted righteousness (what is lived)

Why condemnation, accusation, shame, and discouragement lose their power in Christ

How the cross satisfied justice without compromising mercy

How believers are called to live from righteousness, not for it

You’ll also learn how to discern conviction vs. shame, recognize the enemy’s tactics, and practically “put on” the Breastplate of Righteousness in daily life—through integrity, repentance, guarded speech, obedient love, and spiritual rhythms.

This is an invitation to stop striving for acceptance and start standing in what Christ has already secured.

The breastplate was struck—so yours would never have to be.

Clothed in Christ’s righteousness, you can stand confident, guarded, and free.

In this episode of Seek His Face, host Cody Bentley begins a powerful six-part series on the Armor of God, starting with the Helmet of Salvation. Grounded in Scripture and rich biblical context, this teaching explores how salvation is not something we earn daily—but something we must remember, guard, and stand in.

Drawing from Ephesians, Isaiah, the life of Jesus, and real biblical case studies, this episode reveals how spiritual warfare is most often fought in the mind, not through behavior but through identity. The Helmet of Salvation protects believers from doubt, condemnation, fear, and confusion by anchoring the mind in the finished work of Christ. Rather than striving for assurance, listeners are invited to live from assurance—standing firm in hope, clarity, and confidence.

This episode also includes a guided daily practice, helping listeners actively “put on” the Helmet of Salvation through truth declarations, thought renewal, and Scripture-centered reflection. If you’ve been battling anxiety, mental fatigue, identity confusion, or spiritual burnout, this episode offers biblical grounding, peace, and practical tools for resilience.

Spiritual warfare isn’t a metaphor — it’s a reality every believer faces, whether they recognize it or not. In this powerful extended episode, host Cody Bentley takes listeners deep into the unseen battle happening behind the scenes of everyday life and equips them to stand firm in Christ.

This episode begins with prayer, inviting the Holy Spirit to bring clarity, protection, and discernment as we explore how spiritual opposition often intensifies when we draw closer to God. Cody breaks down what spiritual warfare really looks like in practical, lived-out ways — from sudden temptation and emotional heaviness to confusion, distraction, and spiritual numbness — reminding listeners that opposition is often a sign of growth, not failure.

You’ll uncover three of the enemy’s most overlooked strategies:

Delay — how waiting seasons are used to discourage faith

Noise — how distraction silences God’s voice

Isolation — why withdrawing from community leaves believers vulnerable

Through biblical insight and real-life application, this episode exposes how these tactics work — and how they can be resisted.

The teaching culminates in a deep dive into Genesis 3, examining the very first spiritual battle in Scripture. You’ll see how the enemy attacks identity, questions God’s character, twists God’s Word, and uses subtle deception through thoughts and words — the same strategies still used today.

This episode is both a warning and an encouragement:

You are not weak. You are not alone. And you are not unprepared.

If you’ve felt resistance, confusion, or pressure as you pursue God, this episode will help you recognize the battle, reclaim your authority, and stand confidently in the victory already won through Jesus.

In this episode of The Seek His Face Podcast, Cody Bentley invites you into a reflective and heart-shaping conversation on what it truly means to live out the imago Dei—the Image of God—in everyday life. Building on Episode 2, Cody shifts the conversation from theology to practice, exploring how our God-given identity shapes the way we think, act, love, create, and serve.

Through Scripture, prayer, personal reflection, and powerful stories, this episode unpacks five core expressions of God’s image in us.

In this episode of the Seek His Face Podcast, host Cody Bentley invites listeners into a deep, reflective journey through one of Scripture’s most foundational truths: Imago Dei — the Image of God. Through Scripture, prayer, and gentle teaching, Cody explores what it truly means to be created in God’s likeness — to reflect His character, creativity, and love in our everyday lives.

Listeners are guided through Genesis, the teachings of Paul, and the example of Jesus to rediscover their identity, dignity, and purpose as God’s image-bearers. This episode also examines how Imago Dei shapes the way we view ourselves, treat others, and engage with the world around us.

Whether you’re commuting, taking a walk, or sipping your morning coffee, this episode invites you to slow down, breathe, and allow God to restore His image within you.

Join us as we seek His face and learn to live as reflections of His glory.

Before we can truly seek the face of God, we have to start with a deeper question: Do we really know Him?

In this foundational first episode, host Cody Bentley invites you to pause the pursuit and go back to the beginning — to the One we're seeking. This episode explores why seeking God begins not with religion, routine, or self-effort, but with a relationship rooted in truth.

We unpack:

What Genesis tells us about God as Creator

Why humanity feels disconnected from Him

The problem of sin — and the solution found in Jesus

How the cross and resurrection change everything

Why Jesus isn’t optional — He’s the way in

How historical evidence supports the gospel

And what it really means to know God personally

Whether you're exploring faith for the first time or returning with questions, this episode will help lay a firm foundation: knowing God through Jesus Christ.

This isn’t about more spiritual information — it’s about real transformation.

Listen now, and let today be the beginning of your journey to truly seek His face.
