Breastplate of Righteousness

Hello Reign Forest Friends,

This past Sunday in Reign Forest, we continued to study the Armor Of God and How to Win Against Sin. We focused on the breastplate of righteousness. We learned that if we wear the Breastplate of Righteousness that God gives us, He will help us to do what is right and to fight off sin. We looked at Psalm 119:9-11 and discussed that our Breastplates of Righteousness is not a piece of clothing hanging in our closets to put on everyday, but that it is important for us to seek the Lord with our whole heart, keep His commandments and store up His Word in our hearts by memorizing bible verses. If we are focused on reading the Bible, praying, and trying our best to do what is right, we are wearing our breastplate of righteousness and will be able to fight off sin and Satan.

We had fun making breastplates of righteousness to help us to remember to put it on everyday. The children were pretty excited to use glitter glue and many breastplates of righteousness were too wet to take home. If your child did not bring his/her breastplate of righteousness home, I will make sure you get it this Sunday.

The memory verse for this week is: “For we are not fighting against flesh and blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.” Ephesians 6:12. We do not have Reign Forest this coming Sunday. Reign Forest will meet again on Sunday, June 15.

Sorry, this update is so late in the week. Hope the rest of your week goes well.

Blessings,

Anita, Cheryl, and Jessi
