Christian soldiers are armed with spiritual tools to do their job. God doesn’t leave us without defenses in our spiritual battle. He not only gives us tools to protect ourselves, He gives us an offensive weapon as well, His word. The word is described as the sword of the spirit in Ephesians 6:17—the climactic component of the Christian soldier’s ensemble. 

Know Your Sword is a daily dose of God’s Word that will help you to learn His truths efficiently and from trusted expositors. Sign up for the weekday texts and prepare for the first installment of Know Your Sword!
