EPISODE 490 – THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT 3

It is that vocalized word (rhēma) Paul, the apostle, referred to as the SWORD OF THE SPIRIT!
 
“…And take the mighty razor-sharp Spirit-sword of the spoken Word of God.” Ephesians 6:17 (TPT).

Until you meditate on the scriptures to handle divine revelation to avow, the scriptures will not be useful weapons.

Look at this closely:
 
“For the word of God is living and active and full of power [making it operative, energizing, and effective]. It is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating as far as the division of the soul and spirit [the completeness of a person], and of both joints and marrow [the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and judging the very thoughts and intentions of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12 (Amplified Bible)
 
Get this, the Word of God is not merely a historical writing which has no relevance in our day.

Peter, the apostle, says it abides forever. (1 Peter 1:23).

The Word of God is living, active and full of power. It’s effectively operative with fresh energy. It has the ability to quicken you unto an effective living.

The Word of God is not only sharp; IT IS SHARPER than any two-edged sword.
The expression any two-edged sword is from the Greek;

“DISTOMOS MACHAIRA”

The Greek word distomos, has a greater meaning than just a two-edged sword.
In the original Greek, Di means two and stomo means mouth. So, in other words, distomos means a two-mouthed sword.

God declaring the Word out of His mouth is as a cutting-edge of a weapon in operation.

I have already explained that mouth, in Greek, is “stoma”, which means the front or edge of a weapon.

Beloved your mouth is also a weapon.

The Word in your mouth is as a razor of a deadly dagger which cuts deep into every matter.

God’s Word spoken by Him and written down is one sharp side of the dagger, and the other sharp side of the deadly dagger is when you speak the revelation of His Word in your situation.
 
“He held seven stars in his right hand, and a sharp two-edged sword came from his mouth. And his face was like the sun in all its brilliance.” Revelation 1:16 (NLT)

God’s word spoken out of your mouth by revelation is backed and infused by divine light and energy!

 “He made my words of judgment as sharp as a sword. He has hidden me in the shadow of his hand. I am like a sharp arrow in his quiver.” Isaiah 49:2 (NLT)

A word soaked and saturated by divine understanding is sharper than a double-edged dagger which has the ability to cause changes.

OH, GLORY TO GOD!

Read this also from the MESSAGE BIBLE:
 
“He gave me a speech that would cut and penetrate. He kept his hand on me to protect me. He made me his straight arrow and hid me in his quiver.” Isaiah 49:2 (MSG).

Have you now seen why you don’t have to keep quiet?

God wants you to be saturated and soaked with His Word, and that you can handle the personal Word for warfare.

This is why you must make it a priority to read and meditate on both the “Dig Deeper scriptures” and the “BIBLE READING PLAN”.

Don’t keep quiet!
Declare the RHĒMA OF GOD IN THAT SITUATION!!

THE WORD OF GOD IS A SWORD IN YOUR MOUTH SPEAK THE WORD AND NOT YOUR FEARS!

It doesn’t matter the arrows or attacks of the enemy, with the Spirit-word in your mouth, you can cause double-edged damage to his demonic operations.

Take hold of the Word of God through meditation and wage war with it!

Hallelujah.
