PIERCING THE DARKNESS
IN HIM WAS LIFE: AND THE LIFE WAS THE LIGHT OF MEN. AND THE LIGHT SHINETH IN DARKNESS AND THE DARKNESS COMPREHENDED IT NOT. John 1:4-5.
In Christ we become Warriors and bearers of the Light of Christ. Jesus is the Light of the world that shines through the darkness to enlighten the eyes of our understanding. His Light is the light that opens the eyes of the spiritually blind. In Him was/is LIFE, and that Life was/is the Light of men. As Christians, Jesus is our Light and our Life.
The Light of Christ pierces the “spiritual darkness” of the soul that is bound in chains of darkness in order to bring salvation, peace, and enlightenment. His Life is not only the Light of men it is the Life that produces eternal life in men.
As Warriors of Light, we are the “enemies of darkness.” We pierce the darkness of this world with the Sword of the Spirit. The Sword of the Spirit is our “light saber.” When the light pierces the darkness, the darkness must yield to the power of Light. Darkness has no weapon it can successfully use against the “power of Light.”
As Warriors of Light we pierce the darkness with our “light swords.” Light swords are “words” filled with the Light of Christ. The Sword of the Spirit is the Sword of Light that penetrates and dispels the darkness. The Sword of the Spirit is “sheathed” in our hearts and become mighty weapons when our “spirit words” penetrate the darkness.
Our Light Swords are filled with and burn with the “Fire of God.” Our Spirit Swords are empowered and mobilized by the Light and Life of Christ which dwells richly within our hearts.
In Him (Christ) was Life and that Life was/is the light of men. There is no weapon the Forces of Darkness can use against the light and life in the believer. The Life and Light of Christ are inseparable and impregnable. We pierce the darkness in this world with the light and life of Christ with the Sword of the Spirit, and the darkness has no where it can flee or hide. The Light of Christ is “filled” with the tangible power and anointing of His Spirit.
The Light of Christ brings understanding to hearts and minds that are bound in chains of darkness. When Christ enters into a heart, the darkness must flee. The eyes of our understanding become enlightened by the “true light” when Christ dwells within us.
In Christ we are Warriors of Light and Life. The Light and Life of Christ empowers us to defeat the Forces and Powers of Darkness. The principalities and powers that dwell in the heavenlies are no match for the Light of Christ that dwells within our hearts.
The Light and Life of Christ is both our offense as well as our defense against the Forces of Darkness. Spiritual Darkness cannot penetrate the Life and/or the Light of Christ. As Christians when we all stand together in the Light and Life of Christ in the unity of the faith the Forces of Darkness are blinded by and cannot penetrate the Light.
THE UNITY OF THE FAITH
THERE IS ONE BODY, AND ONE SPIRIT, JUST AS YOU ARE CALLED IN ONE HOPE OF YOUR CALLING; ONE LORD, ONE FAITH, ONE BAPTISM, ONE GOD AND FATHER OF ALL, WHO IS ABOVE ALL, AND THROUGH ALL, AND IN YOU ALL.
Ephesians 4:4-6.
When we come together in the “unity of the faith” which is the unity of the Spirit there is no devil that can stop the Light of Christ from overtaking the darkness around us. In the unity of the faith and Spirit we become a fighting force that is able to destroy ALL the works of the Devil. Alone, we are dangerous. Together we become “a strong fortress” the enemy cannot breach.
In Christ we are one body unified together in one faith by the same Spirit through “one baptism.” We serve the same God who is the Father of us all. He has called us all together and unified us in one body in order for us to become the Bride of Christ.
In unity we fight together and become victorious as the Bride of Christ. There is no more “Boot Camp” where we learn to fight the enemy of our souls. We victoriously defeat the enemy of our souls by virtue of the Spirit within us that unifies us as one body in Christ. In unity we fight together as the Warrior Bride. We take the Sword of the Spirit into the realm of Darkness and pierce the enemy with our “Light Swords.”
A HOLY CONVOCATION
Warriors for Christ is not a religious order or cult, but a “holy convocation” dedicated to fighting the good fight of faith and restoring order in the divine Church. We are a remnant of believers who refuse to compromise the word of God. As the Bride of Christ we all come together in the unity of the faith to become more than conquerors in Christ Jesus.
In Christ we become a “holy assembly” of Warriors who are firmly and resolutely knit together with love for Christ and for one another. We fight together as a unit in one accord to accomplish the task of forming a perfect union with Christ who is our Lord and Savior.
The principles of spiritual warfare which are found in the Bible will produce a mighty army of Warriors for Christ. God’s word will not return unto Him void. What He purposed in His word will be accomplished. The Bride of Christ will be strong in Christ and the power of His Might.
As Christians we have been given the most sophisticated and powerful weapons in the universe. We must take advantage of our “special purpose” weapons and use them to our advantage. We must work together to defeat the enemies of the Church by casting out demons, healing the sick, and raising the dead. Above all, else we must fight to bring a Harvest of souls into the Kingdom of God.
The coming natural and supernatural battles will find the enemy hard at work stealing, killing, and destroying. No weapon they can form against us can or will prosper when we are fighting together side by side to promote truth and righteousness. The Bible tells us that all things work together for good for those who love God and are called according to His divine purpose.
There are many battles to fight and many souls to win for the Lord. There are many enemies to vanquish before the war is over. Then we can all live together in peace and harmony with the Lord. The battle for the souls of men and women will never be over until the enemy lays down his sword. That will never happen until Christ comes back to rule and reign on earth. Therefore, we must prepare for the coming war and the battles that are ahead of us. We must never relinquish one inch of ground to the enemy.
World War III is going to be a war like no other war in history. It is going to be a war between conflicting religious, social, and economic ideologies. In some areas of the world it is going to be a war fought over the possession of natural resources. In “heavenly places” it has been and is going to be a war between darkness and light.
For the Warriors of Light, World War III is going to be a war about religious freedoms and our right to worship in public places. Our warfare will be against the principalities and powers in heavenly places that will be fomenting violence and persecution against the true Church. As Christians we must stand together in the “unity of the faith” in order to help one another during the coming battles.
PRAYING ALWAYS
PRAYING ALWAYS WITH ALL PRAYER AND SUPPLICATION IN THE SPIRIT, AND WATCHING THEREUNTO WITH PERSEVERENCE AND SUPPLICATION FOR ALL SAINTS. Ephesians 6:18.
The Warrior Bride has learned that prayer is an effective and powerful weapon. Jesus told us to always “watch and pray.” We must “persevere” in prayer in order to defeat the principalities and powers we war against on the Battlefield of Life. Our “supply lines” depend upon open communication with God. Our prayers enable us to go before the Throne of Grace to find “help” in the time of our need.
The Bible tells us to “pray without ceasing.” We must never cease to “pray” because our enemy never ceases to “prey” upon those that fail to “watch and pray.” Our prayers must not be selfish prayers. Selfish prayers are lack power. There has never been an anointing on a selfish prayer.
Our prayers and supplications must be for ALL SAINTS. Our prayers help build up our strategic defenses and in prayer the Lord gives us strategies for offensives into the enemy’s territory. When we fight together as a unit we are able to overcome all the strategies the enemy plans against the Bride. When we “sincerely pray” for one another we are fulfilling the
Law of Christ. The Law of Christ is fulfilled when we are all made “perfect in His love.”
