Bible Question: Greetings Emmaus! You asked:"So why can't we wield the sword of the indwelling Spirit, the word of God or perhaps the Spiirt wield the sword of the word through us?"We can when we are yielded to Him. But - Is it possible to use God's Word, without the power of the Spirit behind it? |
Bible Answer: Mommapbs, I doubt it is possible without being in union with and submission to the Spirit. Easier for God to wield us than us to wield God. Hard to get a grip on the handle of God. ;-) Emmaus |
