Read moreTHE SWORD
I was up late into the night watching King Arthur. Towards the end of the movie, I realized that the movie is not about Arthur or the King, but the sword. The sword makes the man ‘The King’. Every man has a chance in life to stand spectacular if such a man have the right sword. There are many swords here on earth, which sword will you possess as a man? Truly, we are no longer in the epic age where battles are fought with sword, but there are constant battles that are thrown our way that bullet cannot pierce, and machine gun could not be the ultimate tool for victory. “For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh :”( 2 Corinthians 10:3|KJV) Yes, the battles we face day in day out are far from the physical, but have physical manifestations. “(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;” (2 Corinthians 10:4-5|KJV) The warfare can come in form of poverty, sickness, diseases, failure, disappointments, and the sin that easily besets us. Those are the wars the devil wages against us. Sometimes, he makes you the enemy of yourself, such that you fight yourself day in day out, leading to depression, lose of peace, anger and suicide in some extreme cases. Then, where is the sword to fight with and be the king, the child of your Father in Heaven, which you have been pre-ordained to be? “And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: (Ephesians 6:17|KJV) The WORD OF GOD, is the ultimate weapon of our warfare!!! Let me show you the potent power of THE WORD. “For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any Two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.”(Hebrews 4:12|KJV) As the people of England awaited the manifestation of King Arthur in the movie, so does this world awaits your manifestation. “For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.” (Romans 8:19|KJV) This happens when you see yourself as a son of God, and have the desire to be. Then you ought to know this end time is no time to be spiritually lethargic. We all need to wake up and take responsibility to deliver the oppress, free those in the bondage of darkness and strengthen the faith of our fellow brothers as we move on in this journey of life. Sacrifice needs be made to strengthen your sword to maximum effect. Our fleshy and earthly desires might be sacrificed for this ultimate goal. “Seek ye first the kingdom of God”; is the ultimate clause to be who we were ordained to be.
