It is quick, powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword.
Hebrews 4:12
For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any
double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and
marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
It is a weapon against spiritual forces of wickedness.
Ephesians 6:11-17
11 Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your
stand against the devil's schemes.
12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but
against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark
world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the
day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have
done everything, to stand.
14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around
your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,
15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes
from the gospel of peace.
16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with
which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit,
which is the word of God.
It will make you adequate – ready and able to do God’s work.
1 Peter 1:22-23
22 Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth
so that you have sincere love for your brothers, love one another deeply, from
the heart.
23 For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but
of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.
2 Peter 1:3-4
3 His divine power has given us everything we need for life
and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and
goodness.
4 Through these he has given us his very great and precious
promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and
escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.
