Cody's Eye Atta Girl Lucy from Heaven with today's spiritually discerned message- The Sandals of Peace
What did Moses sandals represent?
There's your answer: Moses was standing on holy ground. Taking off one's shoes was and still is a sign of reverence, humility, and respect. This same experience was repeated in Joshua 5:15 when the Captain of the Lord's Army told Joshua to take off his sandals. In 6:2 this Captain is identified as the Lord.
So when Jesus asked His disciples to wear sandals, He was saying in essence: “Be ready for any moment when the vision of the holy comes to you. Be ready to instantly welcome an experience of God in your life.” This is so important.
What do the sandals represent in the armor of God?
That brings us to our next piece of armor in Ephesians 6 — feet fitted with the gospel of peace. Roman soldiers, during Paul's time, wore shoes called “caligae”. These were heavy military sandals — half boot, half sandal. These sandals were the sign of an equipped soldier and one ready to move.
Just like the rest of the armor of God, we need our gospel-sealed, faith-filled shoes of peace if we're going to stand firm in this world.
