Since posting the original blog post, I have learned more about praying to activate spiritual things, as putting on the Armor of God is. As we wait for the imminent transformation, I hope I can explain how my Armor of God prayer has expanded.
For starters, some of you have been talking about the Sword of the Spirit and how Erin has mentioned it in her dreams. She used the Sword against the dragon as she was trying to climb the ladder up to the portal of heaven. She stabbed one dragon but the other dragon screamed in pain.
I recently heard an example of someone else praying their Sword of the Spirit into use, so I have now added that to my Armor of God prayer. This is how I have started using it:
I take up the Sword of the Spirit and the Shield of Faith. I take the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God, and I use it to cut the chains and bonds that bind my spirit and my soul. I use the Sword of the Spirit to thrust through the Spirit of Shame and the Spirit of Guilt, because the Word of God tells me that there is no condemnation nor shame for those who are in Christ Jesus, who walk after the Spirit of God. I command the Spirits of Shame and Guilt to leave me and my household immediately, in the name of Jesus.
This can go on with other bondages as you are made aware of them, including the Spirit of Fear, or the Spirit of Lies, or the Spirit of Anger.
More to come at a later date.
Blessings,
