Evangelist Pastor Barbara
Much sickness of the soul in the Body of Christ. They are hemorrhaging out from believing false doctrines spewed from the pulpits and the media. They are too lazy to study for themselves; they would rather men stand before them, robbing them of the truth of My Word. Lacing the Word with inconsistencies. Half-truths, always half-truths.
If you were walking in the Spirit, your spirit man would witness to you, and the fake would hold no water. Sad to say, most of My children do not walk in the Spirit; therefore, My Holy Spirit cannot lead, guide, and direct them in the ways they should go. My Son gave the entire Body of Believers a promise: John 14:26 emphasizes teaching and reminding of Jesus’ words: “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.”
Not every believer uses all the weapons of warfare that I have given them. The Holy Spirit is a weapon. My Word is a weapon. The Blood of My Son is a weapon. The angelic army is a weapon. There is a weapon to defeat anything the enemy throws your way.
The key verse is 2 Corinthians 10:4 (ESV):
“For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ.” In the surrounding passage (Ephesians 6:10–18), Paul describes the whole armor of God — belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness, shield of faith, helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit — as the means by which believers stand firm against spiritual forces of evil.
Context and Meaning
This verse is part of Paul’s teaching in 2 Corinthians 10:3–5, where he explains that the Christian’s battle is not fought with physical weapons but with spiritual weapons empowered by God. These “weapons” include truth, righteousness, faith, the gospel of peace, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.
How to “Study to Show Yourself Approved” (2 Timothy 2:15) says: “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” (KJV).
In modern terms, Paul urges believers to make a diligent, earnest effort to present themselves to God as approved and to handle His Word accurately. It’s not just about knowing the Bible—it’s about handling it accurately and living it out so that God sees you as approved.
Come, little ones; let’s reason together and get this matter settled once and for all. All of Heaven is for you and not against you.
