Put on All Your Armor: The Sword of the Spirit

I don’t know about you, but I hate getting into conflicts where I know I am outnumbered or outgunned. You know, the more aware we are of the spiritual powers that are out to destroy us, the more fearful we become. Satan is a ruthless destroyer-just look at what happened to the lives of the people who suffered from demon possession. Your God will not send you out unarmed.

The Bible says in Ephesians 6:11,17, “Put on the full armor of God. Take . . . the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.” God has given to each of his believers the mightiest weapon on earth-his Word (not my feeble words, but his mighty Word). When we say what God has said, even the fiercest demon from hell must retreat.

We don’t just have to absorb Satan’s blows, crouching our whole lives in a defensive posture. We can attack-spreading the Word through literature, mass media, the Internet, and our own mouths.
