My Daughter, Take My Hand, I Have Given You the Sword of the Spirit
Which is the Word of God
Ephesians 6:11,14,17 Put on the whole armor of God . . . Stand therefore…and take … the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: . . .
John 1:1,2 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God.

1Thessalonians 2:13 For this reason we also thank God without ceasing, because when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you welcomed it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which also effectively works in you who believe.
2Timothy 3:16,17 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Jesus said in John 6:63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.
Jesus said in John 15:26 But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me.
Thank You Heavenly Father
Your love, the love of Jesus Christ and the power of Your Holy Spirit will always be my sword.
The Word of God is Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit speaks His word to you. The Holy Spirit knows the exact right word and will bring it to your heart and mind to meet every one of your needs.
If you believe you are not good enough for God, the Holy Spirit may speak Jesus’ Words from Psalm 23:6 and you can use those words as a sword of truth about your identity:
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the LORD Forever.
If you see yourself as weak, the Holy Spirit may speak Jesus’ Words from Nehemiah 8:10 and you can use those words as a sword to encourage you:
“…Do not sorrow, for the joy of the LORD is your strength."
When someone wounds you, the Holy Spirit will speak Jesus’ Words from Matthew 6:12 and you can use those words as a sword to help you to forgive as you have been forgiven:
And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors.
God’s Word is your Sword of the Spirit, my Daughter, so when you need God’s wisdom, direction, or comfort, trust in Isaiah 55:11 that says:
So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
