Father God, we stand before You as Your soldiers and warriors of righteousness! We have on our breastplate of righteousness and we are prepared for the battles that war against our heart in Jesus name.

Our hearts are shielded and protected, because we have put on the breastplate of righteousness.

Our righteousness opens the door to our victory!
Father God, Your Word reveals that righteousness shall go before You and shall set us in the way of Your steps (Psalm 86:13).

My breastplate reflects the Light of Your presence with a shield of protection in the name of Jesus.
I have on my breastplate of righteousness, therefore, the darkness of deceit and lies will not operate upon me.
Father God, Your Word reveals that the person that works deceit or lies shall not tarry in Your sight (Psalm 101:7).
I chose to walk in the light of righteousness and refuse to walk in the darkness of sin.

For this reason, I will not yield to the sin tactics of the adversary.
My heart is purged for the breastplate of righteousness.
Therefore, as a soldier of God, I am baptized with God’s spiritual fire (Matthew 3:11).

As a true believer, the fire of God’s baptism has burned out and separated me from the worthless matter of sin, carnality and lust.
I decree and declare God’s Word for the need to be water baptized and filled with the Holy Spirit (Matthew 3:11, Acts 2:3-4).
My heart is purged, which demolishes sin and separates me from yielding to the temptations of the world. I am joyful in the Lord, because of righteousness!
My breastplate of righteousness keeps my heart purified before God! For this reason, I am purged as God’s soldiers for a Godly service in His mighty army!
