🔥 FIRE FRAMEWORK — CHAPTER 24: THE BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
FRAME — Truth Revealed
Righteousness isn’t perfection—it’s alignment and covering. The breastplate is received, not earned, and it protects the heart from accusation so I can stand without shame.
As I separate from the flesh and anchor in Spirit, I feel less drive to prove strength or self-reliance—because my identity is settled in Christ, not output.
FEEL — Internal Response
I feel grounded and unashamed—aware of the insecurities, self-hate, and fear that built the false self without being ruled by them.
Rest no longer feels like laziness; it feels like authority.
Slowing down doesn’t weaken me—it stabilizes my leadership.
FACE — What Must Die
What must die:
- proving as a substitute for identity
- shame and accusation as motivators
- the belief that rest equals weakness
- the reflex to carry everyone and fix everything
- reacting emotionally when pressure rises
A covered heart doesn’t bargain with condemnation.
FORGE — Action & Commitment
I “wear the breastplate” daily: tell the truth about my heart, receive Christ’s covering, reject accusation immediately, then live righteousness through obedience.
When demands increase, I protect groundedness by prioritizing stillness, awareness, and Spirit-led response.
My responsibility is not to control outcomes—it’s to keep Spirit on the throne so my heart stays guarded and my strength stays clean.
