Wear Your Helmet

And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is
the word of God.
Ephesians 6:17

There are a lot of motorcyclists today who don�t like helmet laws.  I am
among their ranks, I must say, because it is fun to get on a motorcycle
and ride along with nothing on your head.  But quite honestly, if you
are in an accident on your bike and you become airborne, a helmet
suddenly sounds like a really good idea.  A helmet could literally keep
you alive.

For the Roman soldier, the helmet was important because it obviously
protected his head.  It was made of leather, shrouded in metal, and
designed to withstand a crushing blow to the head.

As believers, we need to put on the helmet of salvation the apostle Paul
speaks of, because our minds, thoughts, and imaginations must be
protected.  It is here that most temptations start.  Proverbs 23:7 says,
�For as he thinks in his heart, so is he. . . .�  Satan recognizes the
value of first getting a foothold in the realm of the thoughts and
imaginations, because this will prepare the way for that thought to
translate into action.  As it has been said, �Sow a thought; reap an
act.  Sow an act; reap a habit.  Sow a habit; reap a character.  Sow a
character; reap a destiny.�  It starts with a thought.

While we cannot control all the things in this world that we are exposed
to, we can control a few things.  We can control what we watch at home
on television.  We can control what movies we decide to see.  We can
control what we choose to read and what we listen to.  Be careful what
you allow into your mind.  Put on the helmet of salvation.
