Armor of God - Part 5 - Shield of Faith
The fourth piece in the Armor of God is the Shield of Faith. Historically, the shield in Roman armor, known as the "scutum," was one of the most essential pieces of defensive equipment for Roman soldiers.The scutum was primarily used to block or deflect enemy blows, arrows, and other projectiles. Its large, curved surface helped absorb and redirect the force of attacks. Its size (often around 1.2 meters or 4 feet tall) allowed a Roman soldier to protect most of their body, from shoulders to knees, providing comprehensive coverage during battle.
The Shield of Faith mentioned in Ephesians 6:16 is part of our spiritual armor. It represents our trust and confidence in God. It serves as a protective barrier against spiritual attacks, particularly "the fiery darts" or temptations, doubts, and lies from the enemy (Satan). Faith in God’s promises and His power enables us to resist these attacks and stand firm in our faith. Just as a physical shield protects a soldier in battle, the shield of faith guards our hearts and minds, helping us to remain steadfast in our walk with God.
