Mighty Warrior with A Mighty Weapon

UV 3720/10000. Mighty Warrior with a Mighty Weapon But the Lord is with me like a mighty warrior; so my persecutors will stumble and not prevail. They will fail and be thoroughly disgraced; their dishonor will never be forgotten. Jeremiah 20 v 11 THE WORD of the Lord is like a fire shut in our bones. It energises, strengthens our otherwise weak frame. It is a powerful weapon that makes us powerful from within. It turns our tongue into a sword of the Lord to execute His will on earth. When we speak in His name and speak His word, the Lord undertakes to be like a mighty warrior who goes before us as a pilot, beside us as a guard, behind us as an escort, above us as a shield. The uni-verse promises that our persecutors, our foes, our opponents, our enemies will be dispersed. They will stumble and fall into the very pit they dig for us, get caught in the snares they prepare for us. They will not prevail as long as we avail the grace of God. They will be thoroughly defeated, dishonoured and disgraced. When our minds and mouths are filled with His word, we become like a “joy stick”, full of gladness and joy and inner strength. His word is like a hammer within us that will break, demolish any internal and external strongholds that the enemy has built in us or around us. It will not return void or without fulfilling that which the Lord has sent it to do. The Psalmist David wrote, “He sent His word and healed us of our destructions.” His word like a hammer will destroy our internal self destruction buttons like lust, anger, pride, fear that sin and transgression have constructed and operated hitherto in us. We become a weapon of mass and class destruction. They will fail in their plans and plots and we will succeed, be honoured, vindicated and be ever victorious. We will leave a legacy of faithfulness and testimony and blessing behind us when we leave. If the Lord is a mighty warrior on our behalf who nullifies the plans of the enemy against us, to kill, steal and rob us, we are His powerful weapon. He will use us to sift the enemy, to shift mountains, to shake nations, to tear down strongholds. He will transform us from being sinners into winners who winnow the mountains, bit by bit and separate the chaff from the grain, the sheep from the goats.
