Spiritual warfare is now! It is time to use the sword of the Spirit!
Ephesians 6:17 (AMP)
“And take the helmet of salvation and the sword that the Spirit wields, which is the Word of God.”
Believers in Christ Jesus are to contend against their enemies!
Realize who we are against!
“For we are not contending against flesh and blood, but against the
principalities, against the powers, against the world rulers of this
present darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the
heavenly places.” Ephesians 6:12
May we all be doers of God's Word!
James 1:22 (AMP)
"But be doers of the Word [obey the message], and not merely listeners to it, betraying yourselves [into deception by reasoning contrary to the Truth]."
“The sword was an essential part of the armour of an ancient soldier. His other weapons were the bow, the spear, or the battle-axe.”
“See the importance of training up the young in the accurate study of the Bible. There is nothing which will furnish a better security to them in future life, when temptation comes upon them, than to have a pertinent text of Scripture at command. Temptation often assails us so suddenly that it checks at reasoning; but a text of Scripture will suffice to drive the tempter from us.”
