What It Means:
Some translations use a phrase like: having girded your loins with truth (NASB). The loin is an uncommon term in modern vernacular. It refers to the lower back but includes the crotch area. In ancient days, men would wear long robes that would get in the way of work or fighting, so they would wrap up the long, draping material. This was girding up ones loins.
The Lord knew our loins needed to be wrapped in truth. Regardless of our culture or time, the Lord has seen all our paths and how they have hurt and derailed us. He knows we need truth.
Our identity is more than our sexuality, but this is one facet of our lives that we often view as a definer. The first area of life in which the enemy frequently attempts to rattle is our sense of identity. And the things pertaining to sex are easy pickings for him. We need freedom regarding sexuality. We need the truth about who we are. And only Jesus is the Truth that sets us free.
