A SWORD
Ephesians 6:13-20
Devotional: -“And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God” (V. 17) NKJV
Everyone who engages in battle knows the importance of the weapon called sword. This is what stand in place of AK47 today. Sword is both defensive, but mostly offensive weapon. By it, you will protect yourself and destroy the enemy. The enemy seeing it with you, is enough to scare them because it's a deadly weapon in the hand of warrior.
The Bible calls the word of God the sword of the spirit and that is what it is. When the word of God is loaded in your heart through meditation, then it proceed out of your mouth (Matthew 12:34). Remember the word is what commands the forces of God to action (Job 22:28; Psalms 103:20). So, when a child of God is speaking or praying with the word, it becomes power through his mouth. People of darkness call this incantation.
Friend, your mouth will lack authority without the word of God. This sword of the spirit works either in your dream or in real life. The devil dare not wait for it. That is why you must let it dwell in your heart richly (Colossians 3:16). Wherever you are confronted with any challenge in life, the word will be strong enough to give you victory. God bless you. Peace!
PRAYER: Lord, let your words ever be in my mouth
“THE STRONGER YOUR SWORD, THE BIGGER YOUR VICTORY”
