“…the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.”Ephesians 6:17 NASB1995
I had a vision on June 8 as I attended a day with Daughters on the Frontline. In the vision I saw a woman clothed in the armor of God. (Ephesians 6:10-18). But, I saw the sword of the Spirit laying at her feet. I received understanding that the sword was not being held because it was thought, “I will pick it up when I need it.”
I heard the Lord say in my spirit, “IT’S TIME TO PICK UP THE SWORD!! MY WORD TRUMPS THE WORD OF THE WORLD!”
Even though I saw a woman in my vision, I believe that the woman represents the “bride of Christ.” This vision and word is for all – men and women alike.
Brothers & Sisters, the main weapon of our warfare is in our mouths! God’s Word spoken, declared, and decreed in and over our circumstances and in and over world circumstances is one of the most powerful weapons we have. We need to realize the importance and necessity of having our “sword” constantly ready.
Read God’s Word…Pray God’s Word…Speak God’s Word
May God’s Word continually be in our hearts and in our mouths! RISE UP BROTHERS & SISTERS! PICK UP THE SWORD AND BE READY TO DO BATTLE!
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.”Ephesians 6:12 NASB1995
Don’t let what is happening in your life put you in a position of defeat. Rise up from that position and remember you are “seated with Christ in heavenly places.” (Ephesians 2:6). That is your position!
RISE UP! ARMOR UP! SPEAK UP!
You are not defeated! You are not a failure! You are not powerless! SPEAK God’s truth over yourself and over your circumstances and keep speaking it until you see the victory!
“For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.” (1 John 5:4)
Praying for you, mighty, victorious men and women of God!!
