The Sword Of The Spirit - The Word Of God Brings Life (Part 2)
Put on Salvation as your Helmet, and take the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God. Ephesians 6:17 NLT
An unknown writer said, “Jesus taught that God’s Word is like seed and the more we speak His Word we give it greater opportunity to take root in our hearts and to produce a harvest of good in our lives.”
Let’s purposefully record the word in our minds on a daily basis to wage spiritual warfare and to bring life and light into the world. As I recall God’s word and confess it with my tongue the power of the Spirit is released and life is born.
Be prepared. You’re up against far more than you can handle on your own. Take all the help you can get, every weapon God has issued, so that when it’s all over but the shouting you’ll still be on your feet. Truth, righteousness, peace, faith, and salvation are more than words. Learn how to apply them. You’ll need them throughout your life. God’s Word is an indispensable weapon. In the same way, prayer is essential in this ongoing warfare. Pray hard and long. Pray for your brothers and sisters. Keep your eyes open. Keep each other’s spirits up so that no one falls behind or drops out. Ephesians 6:13-18 MSG
