                      Take Up Your Weapons

It is time to take up your weapons.  It is time to engage in battle, but not
the weapons of the world: no guns, or knives, swords or explosives.  No, the
weapons I have given you are higher and much more effective than these.

The best weapon you have is My Word.  Above all else, use My word to defeat
the enemy.  Speak My Word. Combat the lies of the enemy and bring them down
to nothing by the employment of My Word.  My Word will never run out of
ammunition.  My Word will never fail.  It will not misfire.  It will not miss
the mark.  It is always on time, on target and triumphant.  My Word will
bring down strongholds reducing them to dust to be blown away by the wind of
My Spirit.  My Word is a weapon you can depend on in every battle.

Use your weapon of prayer.  Your sincere, heartfelt, fervent prayers will
break down barriers, erect walls of protection and safely; and pierce the
hidden bunkers of the enemy.  It will uncover and unmask to reveal the truth
of the enemies tactics and strategies.  Pray always in every situation,
leaving nothing to chance, neglecting nothing.  Bring every concern before
My throne in honesty and with intense, earnest prayer.

   2 Cor. 10:4
        For the weapons of our warfare are not physical (weapons of flesh
        and blood), but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and
        destruction of strongholds, [Inasmuch as we] refute arguments and
        theories and reasoning and every proud and lofty things that sets
        itself up against the (true) knowledge of God; as we lead every
        thought and purpose away captive into the obedience of Christ, the
        Messiah, the Anointed One.
