Righteousness as a Breastplate
Shield of Faith
Isaiah 59:17-19 For He put on righteousness as a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation upon His head; and He put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke. 18 According to their deeds, accordingly He will repay, fury to His adversaries, recompence to His enemies; to the islands He will repay recompence. 19 So shall they fear the name of Yahuweh from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of Yahuweh shall lift up a standard against him.
II Corinthians 5:21 For He hath made Him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.

The just shall live by faith.
