Sword of the Spirit

[Sword of the Spirit @Sword0fSpirit]

The Bible calls the Word of God the “sword of the Spirit.”

This page is simply where I share what stands out to me as I read—small moments, quiet reminders, and truth to hold onto in the middle of everyday battles.

Nothing polished. Just the Word.

Acts 1:7

@MichaelCHaymes Yes and helps connect things that normally you wouldn’t see as connected. I can’t wait!

I'd love to hear how you all approach Bible study. Do you follow a reading plan, read straight through, study by topic, or something else? And what do you like most about your method?

[Sword of the Spirit @Sword0fSpirit]

@MichaelCHaymes Very cool! I plan on doing a chronological plan after I’m done with my current one

[Sword of the Spirit @Sword0fSpirit]

If the Bible is the sword of the Spirit (Ephesians 6:17), then drawing your sword starts with simply picking it up every day.
What keeps you from drawing your sword? Or what would help you spend more time in God's Word? I'd love to pray for you, so feel free to share below.

Not too long ago, I was at a point in my life where I had rekindled my relationship with God. I knew I needed to get into my Bible, but I didn't know how.

A reading plan like this may not work for everyone. There are simpler plans, more in-depth plans, chronological plans, and plans that take you through one book at a time. The method isn't the important part. Consistency is.

Many are the afflictions of the righteous,
but the Lord delivers him out of them all.

🖤Psalm 34:19

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.”

@_Knight_writer Yes that’s a good point. God loves them just as much. It’s not our job to be angry and judge. We just have to deliver God’s message and move on 🙌🏻

I’ve finished the book of Jonah, and there is just so much to unpack and conviction there.
In Jonah 4, we see Jonah angry that God spared Nineveh (Jonah 4:1–3). The text shows him struggling with God’s mercy, even after obeying outwardly.

Gratitude, then, feels like a starting point. It's not an instant fix, but a way God begins to renew the mind.

[Sword of the Spirit @Sword0fSpirit]

To me, it raises a question about perspective. Will Jonah remain focused on his anger, or recognize what God has done beyond him.
This also connects with how Scripture warns against distorted thinking that comes from a lack of gratitude (Romans 1:21).
