[size=x-large]Preparation and the Shield of Faith[/size]
The Roman soldier armed himself to ensure that his steps would not be impeded on rough terrain. To facilitate movement over all kinds of roads, Roman soldiers often wore shoes studded with sharp nails. Such shoes ensured a good grip, and Paul likens the shoes to the 'readiness," or "preparation," of the gospel of peace (Eph. 6:15).
Read Isa. 52:7, Rom. 10:15, and Eph. 6:15. Paul
