The Entrusted Sword“The Sword entrusted to us is eternal. In this blade all the victories of the past are linked to the impossibilities of the

present, and hope for the future… Our Sword created the heavens and the earth. It is our time to wield the Sword of God’s Word to make history rather than to simply mark it” Lisa Bevere p 30. Girls with Swords

Make God’s Word your final authority in life. Live the Word. Use it to heal and to create life. Use it against the enemy not each other.

Eph_6:12 “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Heb 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Scars of HonorNever be ashamed of your scares, it means you overcame the attack ~ anonymous

If you have scares, it means you are in good company ; Psl 22 16(b) “... they pierced My hands and My feet.”

1 John 4:4 “ You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.”

WarriorLuk 10:19 “Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power

of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. “

Mar 16:17-18 “And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out

devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any

deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.”

It is an ongoing warfare for each child of God on earth but we overcome! Rev 12:11 “And they

overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not

their lives unto the death.” The reason: the Kingdom has come. Dan 7:27 “And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom

under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all

dominions shall serve and obey him. “Psal 18:34-40 “ He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms. Thou

hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great. Thou hast

enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip. I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken

them: neither did I turn again till they were consumed. I have wounded them that they were

not able to rise: they are fallen under my feet. For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast subdued under me those that rose up

against me. Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I might destroy them that hate

me.”

Praise to The GroomPsl 45 The MessageMy heart bursts its banks, spilling beauty and goodness. I pour it out in a poem to the King, shaping the river into words: “You’re the handsomest of men; every word from your lips is sheer grace, and God has blessed you, blessed you so much. Strap your sword to your side, warrior! Accept praise! Accept due honour! Ride majestically! Ride triumphantly! Ride for the righteous meek!Isa 61:10 I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels.Rev 19:7 – 9 “ Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.”

RebeccaLike Rebecca, she agreed to marry her groom although she did not saw him

beforehand. 2 Cor 11:2. For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have

espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. Hos 2:16 -20 “ And it shall be at that day,

saith the LORD, that thou shalt call me Ishi; and shalt call me no more Baali. For I will take away the names of Baalim out of her

mouth, and they shall nomore be remembered by their name. And in that day

will I make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of

heaven, and with the creeping things of the ground: and I will break the bow and the

sword and the battle out of the earth, and will make them to lie down safely. And I will

betroth thee unto me for ever; yea, I will betroth thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in loving kindness, and in mercies. I will even betroth thee unto me in

faithfulness: and thou shalt know the LORD.”The groom says; Come away with me my

bride, come and dance with me! Come out of Babylon, come out of the false systems of

this world. Do not worship them. Cleanse yourself with my blood, go to your inner

room, close the door and wait on me. Call on me. We will hear and we will reveal

ourselves to you. We will anoint you with oil and heal you.

I am Woman

“Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you; and before you came forth from the womb, I sanctified

you. I have appointed you as a prophet to

the nations.” Jer 1:15

The Bride is sanctified and purified (by fire).

Purity is not a gift. It is a result of

repentance, and a serious pursuit of God.

Holiness is not a feeling – it is the end product of obedience.

P22. Frances J. Roberts.” Come away

my Beloved”

I AM WOMAN WRITTEN BY LAUREN JACOBS

Getting readyMy Bride, you need to get ready. Wake up! I need a Warrior Bride!

I need a holy Bride. A Bride without a speck. A Bride with a

Sword in Her mouth. Practice by eating My Word each day. Wait

expectantly on me each day and I WILL reveal myself to you. Love me with your whole body soul and spirit and I will fill you with extra oil and new wine. I will anoint

you for the present end times. I am coming!

I asked the Lord, who is the Bride? He answered in a dream; “Those who tabernacle with me.” “Come, buy oil and fill your lamps. Awake o sleepy bride. Come buy oil that

is already paid for.Rev_3:20 “Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear

my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will dine

with him, and he with Me.”

His SwordZech 9: 11-13 As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I

have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water. Turn you to the strong hold, ye

prisoners of hope: even to day do I declare that I will render double

unto thee; When I have bent Judah for me, filled the bow with Ephraim, and raised up thy sons,

O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and made thee as the

sword of a mighty man.

Psl 149:6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two

edged sword in their hand;

Isa 49:2 And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished

shaft; in his quiver hath he hid me;

Reforge The Sword

“You are the daughters of a valiant, virtuous Warrior whose eternal, creative Word in your

Mouth is a living invincible Sword in your hand. You have been entrusted with a weapon without rival in a time like no

other. Wield it with skilful finesse, gracious insight, and in triumphant love, and strike sure” Lisa Bevere p 8. Girls

with Swords

“ From the ashes a fire shall be woken. A light from the

shadows shall spring. Renewed shall be blade that was broken. The crownless again shall be

king…. REFORGE THE SWORD.” Tolkien, The Return

of the King.

The Great CommissionJoh 20:21 “Then said Jesus to them

again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I

you. “ Luk 22:35 - 36 “ And he said unto

them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked

ye any thing? And they said, Nothing. Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him

sell his garment, and buy one.Matt 28:18 – 20 “ And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and

teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the

Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things

whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always,

even unto the end of the world. Amen.”
